What you're looking for can easily be found in the following two or
three patterns, all by Kannik's Korner, historically accurate with excellent
engineering, historical and sewing notes, all of which we carry, and can be
viewed, and purchased, at: http://www.5rivers.org/en-gb/dept_17.html :
KK4303 Man's Trousers, 1790-1810
KK4304 Outer Breeches-Slops 1750-1820
KK4551 Men's double-breasted Short Jacket
Hope you find this of some assistance.
I was looking in an old Smoke and Fire catalog and must have missed this
trousers pattern. It's just what I was looking for. I can't use the slops
pattern, tho I have access to one thru another group I'm in, and the jacket
isn't quite what I had in mind. But the trousers are perfect.
Does Five Rivers Chapmanry have flat brass buttons? Jas. Townsend has nice
domed ones, but I don't know if they're quite right for 1812.
