In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, men’s pantaloons were narrow and close-fitting. They reached the calf or ankle and fastened there with buttons or ties. Reliable museum and fashion-history sources document these fastenings; they do not support the story about pegs and jumping into pantaloons.
