I ordered a shirt and pants and then my husband told me he already had the exact shirt from an earlier order. I called and emailed and the shirt order was cancelled before the mailing. Service is always fast, polite, helpful and the quality of products is superior. We are docents at a living history museum and this place isa life saver for us. Thanks.

All I can say is AWESOME! in all respects. Customer service was fabulous, had to return an item for a different size the entire process was so smooth. On the garments, the quality, fit and historical accuracy was better than expected. There is no question I will be back to order more clothing, leather goods and special interest items as needed. Thank you Emporium! Well done!

The products I purchased are excellent quality , the fit was perfect. I am very pleased. The only thing I needed to do was shorten the skirt as I am vertically challenged. I will add accessories down the road. I received my products a whole week before they said they would arrive .

Very prompt delivery. The blouse is beautifully made and fits well (the sizing is accurate to the listed dimensions on the size chart provided.) I am very pleased with this item and will definitely be purchasing more from your site now that I know that the sizing won't be an issue. Thank you for excellent items at reasonable prices with very fine shipping services!

1. Excellent human customer service. Really nice people. 2. Excellent quality. Normally when you buy online you expect to have to mod and alter. These were perfect and good quality fabric.

Wow---fast service! My item was temporarily out of stock, but I was informed just as soon as it came back in, AND it was shipped the same day. The fit is perfect; not too "baggy-butt", which some drop-front Trousers can be. Looks sharp, well-made, excellent value. I look forward to doing business with you again soon. Well done, you!

It was my first, but surely not my last purchase. The service person, Jamie I believe, was more than extremely helpful. I ordered a holster for a 1873 Colt 45 long revolver. She talked me thru all my questions and was outstanding with her knowledge. I would completely order again as well as share with others.

I was very surprised by the quality. I think these people have a great future. Men and women used to really dress. These guys have the stuff. We go to parties and 'old stuff' or new stuff reflecting 'old stuff' is a coming deal. I have worn my ascot tie with a stick pin from my granddad, and I almost look as good as he did. I fully intend to place more orders with these guys. Pictures tell me they have it right.

Very pleased with the product and the fast service that I received. Got my gunbelt 4 days earlier than expected and the size and quality were all I was looking for. Very happy with the entire experience. The leather was a bit stiff, but after a few coats of oil it is just right. Fits me great, and fits my gun perfectly. Will definitely buy from them again and will recommend to anyone.

I ordered the dress so late that I was afraid I may not get it in time for the event. I received it way ahead of time and so I didn't have to worry about getting it on time. I was very pleased with the quality and how my outfit turned out. Thanks for your great customer service

I received the outfit for an occasion my husband and I will be attending. It was the wrong "period" which was my fault. The customer service representative, Marie, could not have been pleasant and helpful. She went out of her way to make suggestions to me. I wish there more Marie's in this world! She deserves a raise! P.S. I am not related in any way to Marie. I am just a grateful customer! Mary Beth McDonald

The suit we ordered was a back up suit for my son for his wedding since he waited too long to get one and discovered that not many people sell suits that are unique and have character like this one. He ordered a tailor made suit, with just days to spare before the wedding, but he loved this suit so much that he wanted to keep it anyway.

Commissioner Frock Coat
This is truly a well made garment, it is well above expectations. The fabric is heavy so be prepared to use as a coat not just a costume jacket. The buttons and studs are nice but could be lighter to provide more contrast. I took the reviews about sizing to heart and ordered 2 sizes larger than I should have needed and I am sorry now. It is just a bit too large, so if you are thinking to order, perhaps just a size larger would do.

Love it!
I love the way the back is made. The only thing wrong is the sizing isn't true to a XXL. I really wear an XL but buy XXL just in case it doesn't fit loosely. Well, this beautiful skirt isn't loose at all. I should have tried it on when I got it but didn't. I will be wearing it tomorrow or I would return for the next size up

Nice hat
The slouch hat is very good in all respects. The only thing I would caution other buyers about is be careful on sizing. I have other felt hats all of which are size large and fit perfectly, this one however the size large is a very lose fit almost to the point of sliding over my ears. Just be careful when measuring for the perfect fit. Everything else about the hat is perfect, please do not confuse my size issue with a lack of quality, it is a great hat!

Awesome trousers
I'm not one to review any products that I buy, but after receiving my order from Historical Emporium, I had commend these guys on their great pants. The pants are pretty much the same material as carharts so its very durable. The pants also sit higher on the waist than modern pants and they're actually really comfortable. Take em' to work or wear them to church, these pants will receive numerous comments. So far, the pants have stood up pretty well to daily carpentry work, they wash well and the color hasn't faded yet, so all in all, great job Historical Emporium.

Spenser Vest
I already had a red, blue, and green vest to compliment my Maroon, Navy Blue, and Forrest Green sport coats. I needed a white or cream vest to complete my collection, match my off-white sport coats, and the Spencer vest fit the bill! Couldn't be more please with my purchases from Gentlemen's Emporium.

Just what I wanted
This smoking fez is just what I wanted. While it is whimsical and an 'extravagance' it brings me great joy as I wear it nightly at cocktail hour. The quality is high and the fit is perfect. If you feel the itch for something fun and good looking, scratch that itch with this fez!

Sleeves are too small
I love the attention to detail and the fine stitching on this garment. The lacing on either side of the buttons on the front give the bodice just the right shape. The lacing on the back "bustle" gives the shirt the right amount of Victorian flair, but not so much that I wouldn't be able to wear this to work. HOWEVER, the designer obviously doesn't know a thing about how womens' arms! The sleeves on this garment are so narrow my arms felt like sausages when I tried this on! It's such a shame that an otherwise amazing blouse could be ruined by a seemingly minor design flaw. There was not even room for bending elbows. I will absolutely have to send this one back.

Perfect Waistcoat
Honestly I own more waistcoats from Historical Emporium then I own shirts to wear with them. This waistcoat is beautiful and I received many complements for it. Minor complaint is the pockets are sewn shut but that can be easily remedied.

Cool Boots but too big
I was looking for a dashing pair of boots and the idea of having convertible boots struck my fancy. Sadly, despite ordering the smallest size (small for size 8-9) they were still too big. I usually wear a size 8 1/2 so I don't understand why they were too big. Also, wearing the low boot is fine but it's very plain looking. 3/5 for cool concept but could be a bit fancier and be nice in a smaller size.

Not enough shell loops!
The quality of the holster and belt seem to be good and the price was a lot better than a lot of others I've seen, but it only has 11 shell loops! Now anybody that knows anything about a Western 6 gun would have put at least 12 loops on the belt,18-24 would have been better and there is enough room on the belt for 24 so I just can't understand why you would only put 11.

Darker than expected
This is a fine quality hat, but due to the lighting when photographed for this website, it appears to be almost a pigeon grey, but when you receive it, it's more of a darker slate grey. Beware of this when ordering so you won't be disappointed. I intend to get plenty of use out of it, but not as I originally intended, as an Indian Wars Cavalry Slouch Hat.
