Description: Civil War Era Reproduction Men's Underdrawers (drawers, underpants) in soft, white or off-white cotton fabric. This style was worn from about 1840-the 1870's and even later for older men. Available in sizes: teen waist 30" hips 32", small 34" waist hips 37" , medium 40" waist hips 43" , large 46" waist hips 49" and x-large 50" waist hips 55. They are summer-weight cool, soft cotton in white, off-white or tan, with a button fly with 3 to 4 genuine antique bone or ceramic underwear buttons. The waist has a 3-4" opening at the back. There is a cotton cord tie with tiny button holes at the back waist which allows for some adjustment of the waistband. All of the seams are flat felled (turned and completely encased) for longer wear. There is a 2-3" opening at the seam on the outside of the ankle which can be tightened with ties to keep the drawers from riding up. If you prefer not to have them they can be cut off. Drawers were worn for cleanliness and comfort. They are much easier to wash (and to wear) than the scratchy wool trousers. From the pattern Timeless Stitches Men's Drawers TSM-722: "Drawers were used by all classes and under all styles of clothing. The difference was in the quality of the cloth used. A stout muslin or coarse flannel (wool flannel not cotton flannelette) was used by the working class and under work clothes. A finer muslin, linen or flannel was used under business of everyday clothing and silk, fine muslin, good quality linen or soft flannel was used under evening or dress wear. Today we can make drawers out of muslin, cotton flannelette (for warmth) or if you can find it and your husband is not affected by the wool, wool flannel. Silks, and linens can also be used. I have found enough references to calicos that I believe even some calicos would not be inappropriate." Since these are underwear they cannot be returned so please, measure before you order!
