Pioneer Fashion for Boys was very simple. Because the prairie was mostly dirt and mud, men and boys
did not wear long pants. Pants were made of wool and when wool gets wet, it takes a very long time to dry.
So, men and boys wore their pants buckled or buttoned just below the knee to keep their pants dry and clean. Shirts
were full and long to double as night shirts and pants were held up with suspenders. Our knickers and shirts are modified
from the authentic style.
