I accidentally uploaded pictures of two pairs (which look rather similar.) and can't edit the thumbnails. If some moderator could delete them from my first post I would be very glad.

This are the pictures of the pair I want to sell:

The other pair is bigger and already reserved.
I measured the maximum waist with the buckle completely open. With the buckle fastened it can fit a 33,6 without too much pulling.
I tought they were even smaller when I first got them but I guess it's because I am used to wide legged trousers now.

Yes, of course. Is it your size? I might have a waistcoat from the same period too but it needs some TLC and is not 100% the same fabric. But if you buy the pants I will sell it real cheap!

Early wool waistcoat. Selling this for cheap if you take the trousers too
It has a very nice shape with the pointy ends but needs some TLC. The piping on the edges has come undone and I am not patient to fix this since it is not my size anyway. Diagonal weave in the fabric. Stamp from a theatre on the lining and some light discoloration around it.

45 cm 17,7 inch widest part
42 cm 16,5 inch slimmest part
