I spoke to 2 different gentlemen there who answered my questions and offered some sincere comments. The only small issue I had was with the color I chose for the jacket, because it was so much darker in the picture on the website, which is the color I wanted. When I sent a picture to the gentleman there he assured me that was indeed the correct color. I will be ordering from them again, the quality and service was great.

Great Item. I wanted this jacket for awhile and was not pleased with other vendors, until I found it on western Emporium. Thanks

I am glad I found Gentlemen's Emporium. I have been wearing a lot of western and Victorian clothing. Another site offers that apparel, but has tremendous problems with timely delivery and communications. I will now go to Gentlemen's Emporium for my clothing and accessories.

I had to return my original purchase because the belt was to large. I did as suggested, and ordered a smaller size while I returned my original holster. All of the process was seamless, and I am very happy with the quality and cost of my purchase. I checked other sites, and was able to purchase a ammo belt and holster combination for about the same cost of just a holster at other manufactures. It is easy on the eye to. Wonderful tooling on the leather, and the 45 Long Colt cartridges fit snugly. I am very happy. Thanks for all you do!

I was really unsure when I ordered this item if the style, color, and especially the fit would work for me. But the waistcoat is just perfect. It's exactly what I needed for my Doctor Who cosplay (War Doctor), the workmanship is excellent, and it fits perfectly -- no tailoring required. I'm very happy! Thank you!

I think this company does a great job. Their products are well made and shipping is real good considering some lead times on special orders and considering I live cross country from California. Of course price is comparable to other companies, like theirs, but I would like to see better special offers than the few I receive on occasion. I talked to customer service not because of a problem, but needed some help in paying for my order with two credit cards. No, problem for them, they provided the help I needed.

The red ruby velvet dress made my girlfriend look absolutely stunning! We are old souls and dress up in our vintage clothing often for dates and such. The gray purse was a very nice touch as well, but I would not recommend it for "everyday" wear as the clasp was a little faulty.

Good wild rag
This is a very good wild rag. The material is a little difficult to work with and is very big (as expected), I would definitely buy some more in the future.

Victorian Cutaway Coat
Just a bit tight a cross the shoulders and underarms for a true 44L coat. Fits more akin to a shirt. Also the front button is a bit high on the waist. Other than that a great looking coat.

Newsboy hat
I like the look and workmanship and material. My only problem is that I followed your instructions to determine hat size and it feels a bit too snug. I'm not sure if the next biggest size would be too big. I've got no way to determine this

Abbington Blouse - white
Haven't worn it yet, but it meets all my requirements so far! It's exactly what I thought I was getting. Only problem I've noticed so far is that it is 100% cotton, and I will have to iron it!

Pale rider boot brown
I ordered the boots with some apprehension. However on arrival and at the trial fit I found they were just great with a comfy fit straight away. I have been buying items from the Historical Emporium for over twelve months now and have never been disappointed with the product, also the team are dedicated to customer support which in this day and age is worth "A Few Dollars More" keep an eye out for my next order which is coming soon,

This isn't blue, it's Navy
I ordered this shirt, expecting the color on the screen. I thought it was black when I first opened it -- it's the darkest Navy ever! Other than that and the exceptionally long sleeves, it's good.

Good Idea, Bad Execution
This was just the coat I was looking for at just the right price. Boy was i disappointed when the package arrived. The fabric and sewing were OK at the price but the fit and patterns were terrible. I took the coat to a tailor to see if alterations would improve it and he wondered if I had purchased the coat used. He called it junk. Specifically the shoulders were too wide, the chest was way loose, the waist was too small and the collar did not fit at the shoulders. This coat is not even useful as a costume. Don't buy it. The coat was returned and my money was promptly and politely refunded.

Perfect look..perfect fit
Have to say I was highly impressed with the tall derby (I ordered mine in black) It fits true to size and I have to say I am highly impressed with the quality of the hat. I read in another review that a purchaser felt the derby appeared "costume like" and not authentic ..I want to say I found this not to be true in my own opinion. Again, the fit is perfect..I have always worn a 7 3/8 and this derby fit perfect to order. I personally like the "tall version" of this iconic hat because it appears more "Old West American" than say a "British Bowler" with a stingy brim. Very cool look, very well made, and very authentic looking. It arrived much sooner than expected and packaged perfectly.. Will most definitely be a returning customer. Jerry New Jersey 😊

Top notch.
I now own 5 canvas vests and I am very happy with them. I am a carpenter and wear them for work. The material, sewing and buttons are all of good quality. I would purchase more vests if more of them came in my size.

Nice, odd buttons
It is a very nice vest with nice, heavy linen material that wraps around the back. The buttons are slightly corny for my taste and feel a bit loose, but otherwise very nice

Good Quality
Nice frock coat. Reserving 1 star because we needed a 40, but all 40's in grey were out of stock and the 42 we had to settle for was slightly too large and it shows. With that said, the coat is not cheap material and is well made. Customer Service is very good.

Slightly larger than expected. My husband always a large (chest 40), but I returned for a medium. The quality of the shirt is very nice.

Mad science at its best
I LOVE this coat. This is going to be great for times when I want to unleash my evil mad scientist side of me. It radiates a sexy kind of sinister genius all throughout. I like that the buttons go from the mid section all the way to the top of the neck. I really like the look of it on me when it's all buttoned up from the far right side along the shoulder to the neck. My only complaint is that there are no pockets on this coat. However, that can be easily accommodated with a shoulder bag or better yet, a utility belt of some sort. I'm even thinking this might be a conversation piece at Rocky Horror screenings. Thank you HE.

fabulous
I am very impressed with this product...the double breasted Prince Albert Wool Frock. It fits like a glove and has a certain dashing quality to it. I have worn it on several occasions, all formal, and the reaction has been superb. The tailored qualities make it look like a coat triple its price. Sold. As a regular customer of HE, I am impressed with the variety of selections, and the overall quality. Service is excellent, and any concerns are addressed immediately

Nice heavy pant
Great quality and fit. I followed the instructions and ordered one size up and had no problem with size. I will say I am medium build with proportionate weight. Even if you are larger in size I think one or two sizes up from your normal size should work with no problem.

great trousers
I got the brown canvas trousers (similar design/style) and found them to be a bit stiff. These brushed cotton trousers are excellent! Good fit, size runs true, and I did my own tailoring because I take about a 29" inseam. Love the color! Thanks for the quality product!
