19th Century Early Typical Regency Era Men’s Pants With Drop Down Front Flap. Breeches, pantaloons and trousers usually opened by front flaps which dropped down and were fastened with buttons. No belts but pants were instead held up by tight-fitting waists and adjusted to fit snugly by ties or buckles in the back. Back seats were baggy to allow a man to sit and stand comfortably. Early in the 1800s, the flap was usually a wide fall that went from hip to hip but later falls were narrower and went from hip-bone to hip-bone. Some European countries used narrow and straight from openings but in England pants generally had a fall front showing beneath the waist as vests and coats no longer covered the front of breeches. Typical of the early 19th Century men’s trousers as worn by the men in Jane Austen’s family and life. https://books2read.com/SuziLoveFashionMen1800-1819
1826 Locked up in a sponging house on Carey Street, London, because they are unable to pay their bill. From A Regency Gentleman’s Life. From: 1826 The English Spy By Robert Cruikshank. via Google Books (PD-180)
A sponging-house was a place of temporary confinement for debtors. Creditors would lay a complaint with the sheriff, the sheriff sent his bailiffs, and the debtor was taken to the local sponging-house. This was not a debtors’ prison but a private house, often the bailiff’s own home. The debtor was held there temporarily in the hope that they could make some arrangement with the creditors. (Image is Lock Up in a Sponging House from The English Spy by Robert Cruikshank, 1826.)

1780-1820 ca. Brown Leather Boots, British. Construction and appearance typical of early 1800s shoes. Size suggests made for a man but elongated point toe unusual for menswear. Side lacing was very uncommon until 1830 and the leather thong shoelace, cut in a curve, is also peculiar. Perhaps made for something outside of fashionable wear, such as local peculiarity or fancy dress costume. via Metropolitan Museum New York City, U.S.A. metmuseum.org

The Regency Era officially only lasted for nine years between 1811 and 1820, when the Prince Regent, later King George IV, was put in charge of Great Britain in the place of his mad father, George III. When the King died In 1820, the prince regent ascended to the throne and became King George IV. The Prince Regent was a very vain man and became fashionable to imitate Prinny and his fashion advisor, Beau Brummel. A typical Regency gentleman’s daily outfit started with a muslin shirt that went on over the head and was long enough to tuck into breeches or pants and to double as a nightshirt when necessary. Over the shirt went a waistcoat and a coat, usually cutaway at the front and with tails at the back.
The Regency Era saw a wide variety of acceptable pants for men. Breeches were worn as part of a man’s daily outfit during the early 1800s and were necessary for formal occasions, such as court appearances, during the entire Regency Era. However, younger gentlemen moved away from breeches for daytime wear around 1807 and adopted a variety of long pants called trousers, pantaloons, buckskins or inexpressables. Knee-length breeches, worn with stockings, continued to be worn by older gentlemen through the entire Regency Era. Around 1807, upper class gentlemen wore trousers held up by suspenders or pantaloons, which were closely fitted and worn with tall boots. Buckskins, made from deerskin, were comfortable to wear for riding. Inexpressibles were very tight leggings that left little to the imagination of young ladies. Every Regency man’s outfit included a hat, gloves, shoes or boots, and a selection of added accessories from a walking stick, watch on a chain, fobs, coin purse and a handkerchief.
