History
Prehistoric
There is some evidence, of figurative art, of trousers worn at Upper Paleolithic, as seen on the statues found on the sites of Siberian Malta and Buret '. The oldest known trousers found in Yanghai cemetery, taken from a mummy in Turpan, Xinjiang, western China, belonged to the people of East Iran in the Tarim Valley; dates for periods between the 13th and 10th centuries BC and made of wool, trousers have straight legs and broad groin, and are likely made for horseback riding.
Antiquity
Trousers entered history recorded in the 6th century BC, in stone carvings and Persepolis works, and with the appearance of a horse-riding Eurasian racer in Greek ethnography. At present, the Iranian People like Scythians, Sarmatians, Sogdians and Bactrians, among others, along with Armenians and East and Central Asians like Xiongnu and Hunnu, are known to have trousers. Trousers are believed to have been used by both sexes among these early users.
The ancient Greeks used the term "??????????" ( anaxyrides ) for trousers worn by Eastern countries and "????????" ( sarabara ) for loose trousers worn by Scythians. However, they do not wear trousers because they think it is silly, using the word "???????" ( thulakoi ), pl. from "???????" ( thulakos ), "sacks", as slang terms for Persian and other Middle Eastern loose pants.
The Roman Republic sees the garments wrapped in Greek culture and Minoan (Crete) as a symbol of civilization and dismisses trousers as a sign of a barbarian. When the Empire expanded beyond the Mediterranean basin, however, the greater warmth provided by trousers led to their adoption. Two types of pants are eventually used extensively in Rome: Feminalia , which fits and usually falls to the knee or mid-calf length, and Braccae , the loose-fitting trousers covered in the ankle. Both of these outfits were adopted from Celtic Europe, although later familiarity with the Near East of Persia and Teuton increased acceptance. Feminalia and Braccae both began to be used as military clothing, spreading to civilian clothing later, and eventually made in various materials including leather, wool, cotton and silk.
Medieval Europe
Pants of various designs worn throughout the Middle Ages in Europe, especially by men. The loose trousers worn in Byzantium under a long tunic, and worn by many tribes, such as the German tribes who migrated to the Western Roman Empire in the End of the Ancient and Early Middle Ages, as evidenced by these two artistic sources and such relics. 4th century costume recovered from Thorsberg peat swamp (see illustration). Pants in this period, commonly called brais , vary in length and are often covered in cuffs or even cover the foot cover, although open-legged pants are also visible.
In the 8th century there was evidence wearing in Europe of two layers of trousers, especially among upper class men. The lower layer is currently referred to by the costume historian as a "drawer", although the use did not appear until the end of the 16th century. On top of the drawer was a pair of wool or linen trousers, which in the 10th century began to be called panties in many places. Tight fitting and long legs vary by period, grade, and geography. (Open-legged trousers can be seen on the Norman army from the Bayeux Tapestry.)
Although Charlemagne (742-814) is noted to have commonly worn pants, wearing a Byzantine tunic only for ceremonial occasions, the influence of Roman past and Byzantine examples led to the increasing use of long tunics by men, concealing most of the trousers from the look and finally give them underwear for many people. As underwear, these trousers become shorter or longer because the lengths of the various medieval outfits change, and are filled by, and usually attached to, other clothing called hoses or stockings.
In the 14th century it became common amongst people of the noble class and knights to connect the hose directly to their pour point (a soft jacket worn with a steel-coated chest cover that would later develop into a doublet) rather than into their drawer. In the fifteenth century, the rising border led to a shorter drawer until everything was shared by the most fashionable elite who joined their skin-like back tube back into the pants. These trousers, which we now call tight pants but still called hoses or occasionally spliced ââat that interval, appeared at the end of the 15th century and striking by their open crotch covered by an independently firmed, codpiece front panel. Exposure to hoses to the waist is consistent with the trend of the 15th century, which also carries pourpoint/doublet and shirts, previous underwear, into view, but the most revealing of this mode has only ever been adopted in court and not by the general population.
The men's clothes in Hungary in the fifteenth century consisted of shirts and trousers as an undergarment, and a dolman was worn on it, as well as a feathery short fleece or fur coat. Hungarians generally wear simple trousers, just unusual colors; dolman covers most of his trousers.
Europe before 1900
Around the turn of the 16th century it became conventional to separate the tube into two halves, one from the waist to the crotch tightened around the top of the foot, called the stem hose, and the other walking underneath to the foot. The luggage hose immediately reaches the thighs to bind under the knee and is now commonly called "pants" to distinguish them from under-the-leg coverings that are still called hose or sometimes stockings . At the end of the 16th century, the codpiece has also been incorporated into pants that feature a fly opening or a front fall.
As a modernization step, Tsar Peter the Great of Russia issued a decree in 1701 that ordered every Russian man, in addition to pastors and peasants, to wear trousers.
During the French Revolution of 1789 and thereafter, French men adopted a working-class costume including ankle trousers, or pantaloons (named from the Commedia dell'Arte character named Pantalone ) replacing aristocratic knees ( kulot ). (Compare sans-culottes .) The revolutionary new garment differs from the class of the upper class ancien regime in three ways:
- it's loose where the style for the pants has been fitting recently
- it is the length of the ankle where the pants generally have knee lengths for more than two centuries
- they open at the bottom while the breech is tied
Pantalon became fashion early in the 19th century in England and the District era. This style was introduced by Beau Brummell (1778-1840) and by mid-century had replaced the pants as fashionable street clothes. At this point, even knee-length pants adopt the bottom of the pants (see shorts) and worn by young boys, for sports, and in tropical climates. Breeches survived well into the 20th century as a court dress, as well as in a loose mid-calf (or three quarter) version known as a plus-four or trousers worn for active sports and by schoolchildren. This type of pants is still worn today by baseball and American football players.
Sailors may play a role in the spread of trousers around the world as a fashion. In the 17th and 18th centuries, sailors wore loose trousers known as galligaskins. Sailors also pioneered the use of jeans - trousers made of denim. It became more popular in the late 19th century in West America because of their ruggedness and endurance.
Beginning around the mid-19th century, Wigan's wandering girls scandalized Victorian society by wearing trousers for their work at a local coal mine. They wore skirts over their trousers and rolled them to their waists so as not to get in their way. Although pit-eyebrow lasses work on the ground in the pit-head, their task of sorting and shoveling coal involves rough work, so wearing the usual long skirt at that time will severely hamper their movement.
Korean Medieval
The Korean word for trousers, wedge originally appeared in recorded history around the turn of the 15th century, but pants may have been used by Korean society for some time. From at least this time pants are worn by both sexes in Korea. Men wear long pants either as an outer garment or under a skirt, while it's not unusual for adult women to wear their pants (called sokgot ) without a cover skirt. As in Europe, different styles come to determine the region, time period and age and gender groups, from striped gouei to padded stag. . Women wearing trousers

Parts of trousers
Fold
The crease just below the belt on the front symbolizes many styles of casual and casual pants, including trousers and khaki pants. There may be one, two, three, or no folds, which may be facing in any direction. When the folds open toward the pocket, they are called reverse creases (typical of most of today's pants) and when exposed to flies, they are known as folds of the face.
Cuff
The pants maker can finish the legs by piercing the bottom to prevent fraying. Pants with turn-up (cufflinks in American English), after hemming, are rolled out and sometimes pressed or stitched in place.
Fly
The fly is a cover over the opening opening that conceals a mechanism, such as a zipper, velcro or button, which is used to join the opening. In trousers, this is most often an opening that covers the crotch, which makes the pants easier to wear or remove. The opening also allows men to urinate without lowering their pants.
Pants have historically varied whether they have flies or not. Initially, the hose did not cover the area between the legs. It is not covered by doublet or by codpiece. When the breech is imposed, during the Regency period for example, they fall-fronted (or fall broad). Then, after the trousers (pantaloons) are found, the front-fly (falling split) appears. The front paneled back as a sports option, as in shorts, but now almost never used, flies are by far the most common binders. Most flies are now using zippers, though button pants are still available.
Trouser Support
Currently, most trousers are carried by a belt that is passed through a belt bucket on the waistband of a pair of trousers. However, this is traditionally style acceptable only for casual trousers and trousers; suit trousers and slacks are officially suspended by the use of braces ( suspenders in American English) attached to buttons located on the inside or outside of the waist. Today, this remains the preferred method of trousers support amongst adoring English classics adherents. Many men claim this method is more effective and more convenient because it does not require waist cinching or regular adjustments.
Society
In modern Western society, men usually wear trousers instead of skirts or dresses. But there are exceptions, such as the Scottish ceremonial skirt and Greek fustanella, as well as robes or clothing such as robes like the robes of priests and academic robes, both rarely used today in everyday use. (See also Men's skirt.)
Based on Deuteronomy 225 in the Bible ("Women will not wear what is associated with men"), some groups, including Amish, Hutterites, Mennonites, some Baptists, some Church of Christ groups, and most Orthodox Jews, believe women should not wear trousers, but only skirts and dresses. These groups allow women to wear trousers as long as they are hidden. In contrast, many Muslim sects approve pants because they are considered to be simpler than a skirt shorter than the length of the ankle. However, some mosques need ankle trousers for Muslims and non-Muslims in the venue.

Lubna al-Hussein considers himself a good Muslim and insists "Islam does not say whether a woman can wear trousers or not, I am not afraid of being whipped, it does not hurt, but it is insulting." He was eventually found guilty and fined the equivalent of $ 200 rather than be caned.
United States
In May 2004, in Louisiana, Democrat and state legislator Derrick Shepherd submitted a bill that would make the crime appear in public by wearing trousers under the waist and thus exposing one's skin or "intimate clothing". The Louisiana bill did not pass.
In February 2005, Virginia lawmakers tried to pass a similar law to be punished by a $ 50 fine "any person who, while in a public place, deliberately dressed and displayed undershirt, intended to cover one's intimate, obscene or indecent manner ". (It is unclear whether, with the same coverage by the trousers, showing the underwear is considered worse than exposing bare skin, or whether the latter has been covered by other laws.) The law was passed in the Virginia House of Delegates. However, various criticisms against him emerged. For example, newspaper columnists and radio talk show hosts consistently say that since most people who will be punished by law are African-American men, the law will be a form of racial discrimination. Virginia state senators voted not to pass the law.
In California, Government Code Section 12947.5 (part of the Fair Labor and Employment Act of California (FEHA)) expressly protects the right to wear pants. Thus, the standard FEHA California discrimination complaint form includes an option to "deny the right to wear pants."
