Often the most overlooked aspect of renaissance and tudor history is life at sea. With the edicts of the Pope to divide and conquer the world, Spain ruled the day in Renaissance Europe. Naturally Britain and the other protestant nations wanted what Spain had. Thus pirates and privateers were hired to plunder as much Spanish property as possible. Cloaked in this dubious legitimacy, sea lanes around the world were soon chocked full of upstarts, opportunists, and cut throats of every ilk. Brash, deadly, outrageous, and contemptibly clever, Misty Thicket Clothing is very pleased to offer these durable pirate pants.
The one item of clothing in our ensemble that a pirate "almost" always wore was his pants. Comfortable, very loose, and flattering, these pirate pants are sure to keep even the bawdiest pirate chaste and modest (Honest! Would a pirate lie?). Made in 100% heavy cotton or linen, the pirate pants have a cinch waistband for comfort and convenience and are fitted with durable cuffs at the bottom for adjustment. Pant cuffs have reinforced stitching and are secured with leather lacing through a grommeted closure.
