Came back for a second pair after, having worn them at least 4 times a week for the past 2 years, the heels on my first pair finally wore down (am actually looking for a cobbler to see if they can be fixed). These boots are so incredibly comfortable and the fact that I can wear them is amazing as I have very oddly shaped/sized feet and before buying these I had been constantly rebuying the same pair of timberland ankle boots over and over for the past 15 years. I actually got a pair of the brown too. They do run small so keep that in mind when purchasing but they are incredibly comfortable and wear well. The heel is 'high' enough to be feminine but not so high to be consider 'high heels.' The lacing provides great ankle support. The soles wear well and generally provide decent traction. I did have trouble once on a marble floor after coming in from a rainy day, slid a little bit.

I recently bought a reproduction .45 caliber Colt 1873 Cattleman. It's a beautiful western reproduction gun, but I needed a holster. I ordered this holster and it is great. It reminds me of the holsters on Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger, Rawhide, and the other westerns I watched as a kid. I recommend ordering a gunbelt 4 inches larger than your waist. I ordered one that was 6 inches larger and it was a little too large. I returned it and ordered one that was 4 inches larger than my waist and it fits perfect. I went ahead and loaded the belt loops and I have been practicing my quick draw. I really wish I had more guns, so I could order more holsters.

This is so cool. I got the badge on a whim. My wife really digs it though. I bought a reproduction .45 caliber Colt 1873 Cattleman and I needed a holster. When I ordered the holster, I ordered the badge too. I am really pleased and it makes going to the gun club pretty fun. Some of the other guys at the gun club are a little jealous even though they won't admit it.

This skirt is lovely, a tad shorter than I had envisioned, but I also am all legs. I thought the ruffles looked like they might be satin in the photo on the website, but they are regular fabric, which will make ironing out wrinkles less nerve wracking! Great Price, Fast shipping. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

This vest fits my son perfectly. The fabric and stitching and style are beautiful. It's functional and nice to look at! Very happy with it.

The only reason I don't give a 5 star rating is that I wish this vest came in Long versions (medium long, large long, etc). I'm not a giant, but perhaps a little above average height at 6'2", and this vest leaves a gap of shirt showing around my hips (and this is with period, high-waisted pants). Here's hoping that Historical Emporium will introduce a long & tall version of their vests.

It is a very nice vest, I may soon order another.

I bought these for my husband and he loves them. Do order a size up as recommended by HE. The grey stripes make for a nice versatility. They can be dressed up or down.

The belt is very supple and fits smoothly around the hips. Buckles front and back make for easy re sizing. My only issue is that the pocket did not fit my iPhone 6 very easily. Perhaps if the pocket could be made a bit deeper so the phone could sit vertically.

We purchased the whole get up and was extremely please with the workmanship. Great experience dealing with the Historical Emporium. Thank you.

I had been checking all the men's shops in my area looking for "the hat". With no luck, I started searching the net, and ran across this site. Really liked what I saw. Friendly service while placing the order. Fast service getting it here. Love the hat, well made, and fits great. Have received a number of compliments on it. Would definitely do business with them again.

This is my first western holster, so like many first time buyers I looked at many sites before choosing Historical Emporium for the price and quality product. ordered 4x larger than waist which fits well but could've been better at 6x. But anyway still love it and hoping for some good weather so I can use it.

The blouse was what I had wanted however I followed the measurements to the tee and when it arrived I could have put 2 of me in it. I was able to return with no problems, customer service is excellent. I did not reorder because I found that the length of the blouse was a problem. I am 5 ft and using the measurement chart it would always make the blouse the wrong fit because what should be the waist comes down to my hips. I am sure the blouse would work beautifully for taller people. If they could get the length worked out I would not hesitate to buy at another time.

Excellent fit for me, look great, well constructed. What more can on say? I would recommend, especially with matching trousers. I look particularly dapper in these at work.

Excellent shirt in a very exclusive fabric. Sizes are a bit different to similar bibshirts though. I am usually a LG, but in this particular shirt a XL. This is due to different shirtpattern, especially the shape underneath the sleeves.

...but the product really sucks! Who thought to swim shorts made of an white, basically transparent material when wet, with out some type of underware is a pervert in my opinion!

Wore them for a weekend and loved wearing them... I was able to play & work in them.

I'm really pleased with this jacket. It's very well made and the velvet is very plush. Though I bought it specifically for a costume event, it's nice enough that I can wear it as a casual jacket.

Great quality. Pant's are very comfortable and not to warm. Even in a crowded nightclub.

I bought this lovely parasol for my girlfriend as a surprise B-day gift. She thought it was wonderful and exquisite. She never thought of buying one, but after renting one in full Victorian dress, she thought it would be wonderful to own one. Her favorite color is purple, so... The customer service is the best. Can I give 3 thumbs up? I will be back with recommendations, too.

I like this vest and wish that it was in other colors.

So ridiculously adorable. Saw something similar to these years ago in a shop while on vacation. Spent the entire ride home beating myself for not buying them. Thank you Historical Emporium for having these. Today was my first day wearing them. They stopped traffic everywhere I went.

This Vest Looks Even Better In Person! Great Fit and Style! I Get Compliments Every Time I Wear It! Exceptional Customer Service & Shipping!

ABBINGTON blouse was exactly what I was looking for to complete my wedding outfit. Well made and a nice weight cotton.. It has become my favorite!

FANTASTIC!! I wore this on my wedding day(1890s dress) and it was perfect!!

This blouse is well made and beautiful. My only issue was that it has a crinkle pattern within the material, which was not in its description. I will be returning it.

Bought this for a formal ceremony and got quite a few positive comments. A little tough to adjust the tie yourself, but a little help from your lady friend will do the trick. Paired it up with the Livingston Vest and a frock coat. Great look for the price.

Bought this vest as a cross over for formal dress and informal wear by itself. Fit size was great, and the price was right. Adjustable back strap for a proper fit worked well. Vest is heavier than a strictly formal vest would be, but wasn't a problem with a lite weight frock coat at an indoor function. Because it is brushed cotton it will require a pass or two from a lint brush before going out, and it is dry clean only.

This is stylish and well stiched colors are stong, i would purchase any clothing items again

Beautiful fan, REALLY circulates air. I keep it with me when I go to specials events and special places like church; worth the price. I read another review that said it was "hard to close", well it's a large, LACE fan so that's expected, meaning the fan is not made of simple paper where it would take hardly any effort to close. In my opinion the fan is NOT hard to close if you close it properly. Buy the fan and be FABULOUS.

High Quality product. Its getting harder and harder to find vests of any sort locally, so I'm very glad to find Historical emporium. These vests are truly top notch. I dont do the historical/steampunk thing, I just use mine for normal Sunday dress and get very good compliments. I plan on ordering some shirts next

This is a great tie! I plane on doing business with this place again. I am wearing this tie to my wedding in June. I will also be getting a vest from this site. I hope the quality is just as good on the vest as this tie.

Purchased a few outfits to work a large Steampunk Symposium. Great quality. Fast delivery. Bought one item in a wrong size and it was handled fast and professionally. I'm will shop here again.

This is a gorgeous scarf, wonderful craftsmanship and reasonably priced. I have been wearing it almost every day since it arrived, received many compliments on the looks...simply can't beat cashmere for a luxurious look and feel. Absolutely thrilled with my purchase, pleasure to do business with you!

The fabric for these sueded riding pants is lovely, and they are lined. The only initial disappointment I had when I received my first order was that the sizing was way off! I have a 31.5" waist and initially ordered a Large that was supposed to fit waists up to 32" but I was floating in them, they were enormous around the waist and not even wearing a belt would have helped. I returned them and ordered a Medium that was to fit waists up to 29" and they fit perfectly. So something appears to be a bit off in the measurement guidelines. I've noticed this to be true with sizing recommendations for blouses as well based on two purchases made. Aside from that these riding pants were a great find and I absolutely love them. The photo doesn't quite do them justice because I didn't think the fabric would be as high quality as it is. I would definitely recommend these riding pants if you're looking for an item like this, just be cautious about what size you order to avoid the hassle of having to ship it back to exchange it for another.

I am putting together a Victorian soldier uniform and bought two shirts. This one is just as good as the other but looks more natural. I will be buying a few more of these!

I am putting together a uniform for a Victorian soldier and this shirt is perfect. I wear it around the house, too!

Holster is just what I wanted. Good quality and just like the picture on internet

This beautiful lab coat is just perfect for my Dr. Horrible cosplay! I'm a woman, 5'5", about a size 10, and the Small size is perfect: a bit of room in the shoulders, but not too baggy. That said, the torso is cut VERY long. The coat is floor-length on me (which is perfect, because I need some extra fabric to make a pocket.) Construction on this is top-notch, and the fabric itself is very high quality: it's a lovely true red and it washes like a dream (I love laundry day!). Buy this, you won't be disappointed. This is no costume store garbage! Trust me, I've got a Ph.D. in horribleness...

The skirt is lovely. It fits perfectly. The elastic waist makes it all the better! I can't wait to wear it to my event.

This pocket watch is an excellent thing..!! Looks stylish and keeps excellent time. A great purchase.

With all the junk being made nowadays, I didn't have high expectations of this being as high quality as it actually is. I've wanted one of these exact style, color and fit for years and I was lucky enough to find this one. No outside pockets is the style I like, having a couple pockets inside is very nice. Because of my shoulder/chest size, finding this type of coat has been tough. Since I will be performing my very first wedding and this fit the dress code of the wedding couple, I just had to give this one a try and we'll it's perfect for me. Surprisingly, I expected this Wool coat to be very heavy and it is very light and being lined with nylon it won't sit against me to overheat. You can't go wrong with this coat!

This is a high quality very nice hat. It's looks great on my wife!

Good product

I own several waistcoats but this was my first from Historical Emporium. I am extremely pleased with it. The color and tweed fabric was exactly what I was looking for and fit was perfect. I wore it today at work and three people made the comment that I looked "dapper". And when my wife and I went to dinner the server asked us if we were "creative people" because we looked like we both worked in creative fields of some kind. It was a nice compliment. I told a coworker that I decided to call today "Waistcoat Wednesday"and start a new trend. She said" Yes, but today is Tuesday"!? I told her "This is true, but I also also like to be spontaneous and unpredictable. So any day can be a Waistcoat Wednesday". I will have to buy that red dragon waistcoat next. I don't have a red vest yet.

Very cute. Looks even better than the photo, just give yourself ample time to press all the ruffly layers.

Well constructed. Quality buttons. prompt delivery and good fit. I was happy to give this as a gift.

This was a great find. Nice texture, fit and "hang". Makes me look better than I deserve. Used the fit guide, ordered a size 50 and it feels just right.

They were way over priced. The materials used were pretty good, but my mom who is a descent seamstress said that the materials cost was maybe $3, and the labor is minimal. The other thing kind of just relates to me, but they were way too big. I do have pretty skinny arms though, so....

The craftsmanship is descent, but the winding knob at the top, broke. I couldn't lock it back down after changing the time. I could have got a lemon though.

The pin looks exactly like pictured. It is metal and is exactly what I wanted. The problem was that the pin clip in the back was broken. It is just a stick pin and open hook so that I was able to gently twist the hook back into place. I just find it a shame anytime a company ships damaged material. Editor Note- We apologize for the trouble with the pin. Our warehouse is reinspecting the pins.
