I like the selection of products online, and the prices are reasonable. Delivery was very efficient. The footwear size I ordered was too large, so I ordered a smaller size by phone, and the customer service was excellent. I went back the larger pair and was instantly reimbursed. I'm very happy with the boots and will order again.

I had issues with confirming my credit card details, however the assistance I received to complete my order was 1st rate. My only issue was cost, however, that was related more to poor conversion rates than pricing. Overall, very happy with both my purchase, and shopping experience.

I ordered the 1899 superior court judge's outfit two years ago and wanted to add another period shirt, tie, vest and tie pin. Your company did a good job for me before and I wanted to reward that excellent customer service with another order.

I had a great experience shopping with Gentleman's Emporium! I had a question that was quickly answered, and when I decided I wanted a smaller size item, returning was easy! I will definitely be doing business here again in the future!

Their customer service was fantastic! I received goods so quickly, and they noticed I submitted two orders on the same day, so they credited me on shipping!

Loved the quality! The large sizes were just a little larger than I expected but easy to take in. Washing didn't shrink them much. Well worth the money!! The order was divided into two and both halves came much faster than I anticipated.

I ordered 6 vests and men's ascot's The sizing was true to size, from SM to 3x the colors and material were as described and as they looked on-line. I had to trade some sizes and the staff went the extra mile to check returns and see if a size I needed was available just not yet re-stocked! Everything was great and the prices were reasonable. Shipping was supper fast!. The vests did not have a full collar (stopped at the apex of the shoulder). You would NEVER notice under a suit jacket - but our groomsmen were dressed without a jacket so - in a perfect world, would have liked the full collar. That said, with everything that was right and great about this order, I would stick with this company and vests - GREAT staff, Supper helpful, and no surprises on the material order. Thanks ladies, you made the grooms part of the wedding easy and classy!!!!

These suspenders arrived amazingly quickly. They are very well made, and are adjustable to fit nearly anyone. They were a gift, and the recipient put them on right away. They look just smashing.

Lovely Boots
I'm very impressed with this boot. It is very good looking and comfortable enough, considering the price. It seems well made, and smells delicious! I plan to order another pair in black.

Needs snap
I like it a lot, but the strap should have a snap so once the buckle is correct you can just snap it on.

Lovely blouse
This blouse is very nicely made and fits like a dream. I haven't washed it yet, and I'm hoping it won't need too much ironing... But for now it's perfect. A great addition to my early 1900s wardrobe.

Love this skirt!
I love the look and fit of this skirt. I am excited to add it to my wardrobe and start wearing it places! An added note, which I picked up in other reviews, is that the length is adjusted from the inside of the skirt. I will definitely be shopping here again!

Outstanding quality
This is my third gun belt and holster from the Emporium. The quality is outstanding. Thick leather, strong even stitching and sturdy hardware. I am very impressed with these gun belts. Fit and finish is top drawer! Don't think I will need another for a while. Great product!

NICE HAT
I got it to go with the smoking jacket. I have a very long Meershem Pipe that I'll take a picture with to make the combination fit the era. Perfect fit. Good quality clothing from Historical Emporium

BEAUTIFUL JACKET
A well made jacket. Fine quality. Really nice. Size is accurate except I forgot my slightly robust (fat) belly. I fit into the jacket but am about 1/2 inch too fat. But can button all the buttons with one a little snug. Have lost weight this past week so with another couple of pounds off I won't fear shooting a button off and knocking someone out. Well worth getting. Larger size would've been too large in the shoulders but fine around my portly self. Glad I found your site.

I love my Walden Wool Tweed Vest!
Just what I was looking for, and given my past experience with Historical Emporium, I was confident that what I purchased would be received without disappointment. I was right. It will go great with my other purchased clothing to create the Professor Marvel character in sepia tones for the Wizard of Oz production in late summer.

saddle pants
I love them. I took early retirement and bought a couple quarter horses with my daughter. We ride 3 days a week, and these pants are the best, feel good, look good. They look great with my bib shirt when we ride in Asquith, sk.

gun belt
Well made out of heavy leather. Sizing is accurate, holster fits both the pistols I tried. Loops on back are snug on 45LC so they won't fall out when moving around. Very happy with the product.

Hat
Well made, sizing seems to run spot on, but it does have a small band with elastic inside to snug up if you are a tad off.

Awesome
The holster was amazing, I bought it as a gift for my dad, the only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there was a scratch on it, looks like before it was dyed. But we didn't mind all that much, it's beautiful.

Skirt
Wasn't sure how the skirt would look, but it was cute and very comfortable. Purchased as a costume for a historical field trip, it wore well and washed well too.

Good hat
Runs a bit undersize, Single layer felt is indeed crushable. Usable for formal occasions but not for every day use. Feather is easily removed if that is you preference.

Great blouse
Just what I was looking for. I don't do reenactments, but wear this whenever I please and get compliments all the time.

Quality collar
I am so glad I found Historical Emporium. I had been looking for a detachable wing collar for a long time. The old ones are almost impossible to find any more and even if you do get a stock of them, they wear out pretty quickly. These collars are perfect. Great service. Thanks

Love it!!!
I read the reviews before I purchased this necklace. Wore it to a convention last weekend. People stopped me several times to tell me how pretty this was. Even the vendors selling steampunk jewelry loved it. Will definitely be buying from this website again.
