Well I was in the market believe it or not for a pair of fingerless gloves for work, my other pair was just too big. I'd been looking at these for awhile and I'm so glad I pulled the trigger and bought a pair. The fit: Perfect doesn't do it justice, I was worried they'd be to tight or to loose, nope. Perfect. Very soft and very comfortable, heck I wear them around the house if my hands get cold. Thank you for offering these, I'll be doing more business with your company I'm sure

The hat is great. Originally ordered the white because the photo for the white one makes it look kind of an off-white or eggshell or cream or something. This white hat is WHITE WHITE. Bought this one to replace it and will be returning the white one. The Khaki one is not as dark as it's photo but not as light as the white one's photo. Just fair notice to anyone ordering the white one hoping for a "natural" color or off-white. Get this one instead.

I have trouble finding hats that will fit my big head. Or maybe it's a big head combined with thick hair. No idea. Regardless, when I saw the XL sizes in hats on this site and saw this hat listed, I thought I'd give it a try. It's snug, but fits great. Much better than most hats I find even at dedicated hat shops don't fit nearly as well as this one does. Great purchase for me!

There were comments on some of the braces on this site about length. Not so much with this set (besides Carolyn's comment) but if length is a concern, I wanted to give my specs and how it fits me in case it helps someone. I'm 5'10", 200lbs, I'm using the "Sable Brushed Cotton trousers" from this site. I wear 36x29 pants, so the rest is torso length. :) With all that, I adjusted the clips about 1/3 of the way up my torso from my waist and these braces were snug enough to do the job. In other words, they fit great for me with those kind of measurements.

Did a stage version of Frankenstein using this coat and it was a hit! Its all cotton so it was easily tea-dyed so it wasn't so white-white on stage. It really closes unlike most of the ones you get at costume stores and it had great movement. The only thing I did was add an inside button/button-hole to keep the double-breasted flap laying smoothly across the chest. Highly recommend for theater and film use! And it arrived so fast!!! And they quickly contacted me when there was a hiccup with my shipping address. Great company!

while the vest is 100% synthetic, it looked great in the photo. i was nervous if this would come looking like a fire-hazard, but it looks like a high quality wool/cotton in person.

while the tweed front looks great, the back panel is a gray fabric that looks quite synthetic and cheap.
