This stuff, I thought at first, was just reproduction/replica stuff for costume parties, but no, I can see that it is indeed authentic, or at least a very close reproduction true to the original design, and so the items that I purchased here can be used for any occasion, or even everyday as just normal wear. The pocket watch that I bought is a good example of this, as is the hat and cane and other items. This I believe to be unusual, so I would definately say positive things about this store in recommending it to my friends.

You could almost go outside wearing these boots. I'd recommend them to anyone who wants to keep their feet warm.Be sure to buy one left and one right boot, though. I almost made that mistake, and BOY would that have been embarrassing.
