Quality is as I expected maybe a little better. Only problem is, the wide portion of the belt is not long enough to make use of all off the holes for the buckle. 3 more inches of leather would have made this rig functional. Would have given 5 stars. Order 2" larger than you think you need. I'm going to have my shoe repair shop add 4" to the wide belt.

Just what I wanted. Belt was a bit wider than I expected (3 inches) and held a few less rounds than expected (21 rounds of 22 mag). Very comfortable and fits holster great. holster is nice fit to my Ruger Single Six (5.5 inch barrel). Sevice and delivery was excellent. I would definitely use Historical Emporium again and recommend them to my friends.

This skirt was BETTER than pictured- so sassy and elegant! I havent stopped wearing it since I got it. Good for casual wear, Renaissance, or anything! I love the length and the bustle is perfect! I will be coming back here!

Love these trousers! Very soft and comfortable with a touch of stretch. They fit snug so I returned the 34's and got some 36's. I wear 34 jeans everyday.I replaced the plastic buttons with some nice pewter buttons and moved them a little to snug the waist, along with the tightner in the back everything is perfect. They are plenty long to hem anyway you want. I will wear these to more than just reenactments. Historical emporium couldn't be faster or more accommodating. This is a company that is a joy to do business with and I look forward to buying from them again.

I ordered the Galloway vest to wear to the opera. It arrived quickly and was of much greater quality than I had anticipated for the price. I'm looking forward to wearing my vest both for formal occasions and just for fun.

Love seeing the works through the back and front windows. I wish the hands had a dot of white to make them easier to see against the backdrop of the works. Seems to keep time accurately enough.

This article is very well made and will elevate a plain shirt to a handsome, classy outfit. Easy to care for and durable enough to last decades.

These boots are top quality leather and provide excellent protection from heavy brush, snake bite or rabid terrier. Steel caps safeguard your toes and the sole is a deep aggressive tread that can be replaced when worn down. Inside the bottom is cushioned for comfort and reduces fatigue from those long marches. Be prepared to spend some time lacing these up as there are thirty eye holes from top to bottom, so you won't be in or out of them in a hurry. A good cordwainer could put a zipper on one side to make these Venturer Tall boots the perfect addition to your wardrobe.

Love the shirt. I was a little concerned about the size, because this was my first shirt order, but it fits great. I will be buying more now that I know the fit is so right.

Purchased for a play and so far so good. I was a little worried that the opening and closing part would break.. but all going great so far. The top flower did come off pretty quickly, but was an easy fix. The fringe is great.

I ordered a size large which would not go onto my head. My head measured 23 1/2 inch which is at the upper end of that size. I returned it for the xl which I thought would fit due to the large being sized small. When I received the XL it just swallowed my head almost going to my ears. It also appeared to me that the quality of the second hat was not as good as the first. I wish I had written down the brand of the first. I am out $40 for transportation and still have no hat.

I was well-dressed for our Port victorian Festival ball. Good job, folks.

The products were great. Your toll free number doesn't work from Canada, The. top hat was considered oversized to ship and that shipping option was too expensive. I ended up shipping to the closest state and driving 3 hours each way to pick up my parcel. The box that I received wasn't that big and so I don't understand the excessive change for oversize.

I was foolish and thought I would get the gloves locally for the St. Patrick's Parade on Mar 16th. But the best price seemed to be at the victorian Emporium. So, starting with HELP! I bought my gloves on Saturday night. Due them being closed on the weekend, my order was not filled until Monday. On Wednesday the 13th my order was waiting for me when I came home .. The Old Sacramento Living History Program and I thank you ...From Now on I will both check with your online catalog first and will suggest it to all my reenacting friends!
