Everyone has been fantastic. When I had a holster color problem they fixed it fast. I have several belts and holsters and they'll all come in to play. I still have a few more products I want, and I'm happy to keep shopping here. Thanks to all involved.

I placed an online order. Your sizing guidelines were perfect for pants, shirt and vest. The quality is excellent. Very pleased, thank you. Can't wait to order other outfits.

I love Gentleman's Emporium, it's a great resource for theatrical costumes and cosplay and just dressing up. I like to peruse the site on my free time and it's one of my go to sources for costuming.

I have only purchased a few items from gentlemansemporium, but overall have been satisfied with the customer service & the products. Things tend to be a bit pricey, but the products are specialized.

The five-star rating is too low for this company. If I could, I'd give it 10 out of 5 stars. Products are of excellent quality and I received my orders well before I expected them. I'm a lifetime customer now.

Material is incredibly durable. I am very impressed with the quality of the clothing. I measured to the chart and every piece of clothing fit to a "T"'!!! The pants need hemmed due to the standard length but overall 5 stars!!!

S'math sin! Truly... I feel like a kid again. Brilliant clothing and shockingly well made (these are no costumes... these are wear-a-day clothes). If you had a tailor on your end to do these pant legs, I would never shop anywhere else ;)

The pocket watch I ordered is gorgeous! I am very impressed with the quality, pricing, and the time it took for delivery. We've been raving about your site ever since the watch was delivered, and referred a friend to your site, who also purchased some items.

I've ordered many items from Gentleman's Emporium...both Victorian, as well as western. I can attest firsthand to the quality merchandise, as well as the integrity of the persons who work tirelessly in a committed effort, to get their clothing and wares to an appreciative public. Shopping on line through their extensive collection, is like going back in time and visiting a high end clothing store....which I very much appreciate! I also appreciate my close friends, who are of a like-minded character, in all parts of the world.

I was purchasing for a small local theater group. The gentlemen's costume was awesome. One concern (not really a problem) was the pieces were of one line, and the outer coat could have had a bit more ease throughout the arms and shoulders to accommodate the rest of the ensemble. It looked very sharp, and over all was very satisfactory. The ladies hats we purchased are absolutely beautiful!

A Great Vest, in crimson.
I love the durability, the four pockets for convenient storage, and most of all the convenience to keep clean. Around here the only vests can be found are slim to super slim, this vest is not like that. I ended up with a size bigger than I probably needed, but a few minor alterations never hurt anybody. My next one will likely be a size smaller, but for certain there will be a next one. A fine vest, wish I had four more. durable and stylish. Great product, receive many compliments.

Classic, Comfortable, Complementary
Light weight, versitile, goes with pretty much everything. I love this cravat, and moreover, it seems so does everyone else. A fine product, no Gentleman should be without.

lining
I think it would have been nice if it would have been lined. But I still like the hat.

I really like the pants. I wish you had more styles available in my size (58). If you did I am sure you would get more business from me.

Love it!
I bought this coat as part of a Mary Poppins costume....sizing can be an issue with this garment...Even though I had ordered one size up/larger from the fitting chart originally....it was too snug so I returned it for another size up from the first coat. I received the replacement yesterday and it fit perfectly. With this being said, I am VERY pleased with this coat. It is well made and looks fantastic on, once you determine the correct sizing. Once I have worn it for the Mary Poppins production, I wont have any problems wearing it for day to day use. In communicating with the staff for the return I found them to be very helpful and pleasant to deal with. The only problem now, is I want it in the other color as well!

Good Structure
Elegant vest. Great structure. The back is not shiny vest material, it's a stiffer canvas-type material. Seems more rugged than a typical vest, which is great. It looks like a well made garment.

Nice Blouse
Very nice blouse. I like the material, & it is washable & won't wrinkle. The only thing is that the wrist cuffs are very tight - I am very petite & they do fit, but it is a close thing.

I do a medicine man show as part of our reenactment shows. I used the cards for tricks with the kids at the shows. I also asked people what the spade ace was and one man knew.m

Bailey vest
I purchased this vest to go along with the natural coloured fundamental work shirt. The matching is perfect. The vest is exceedingly high quality and sizing is very accurate. The pricing? So fair that I felt a bit like I paid too little, especially considering the quality of the product. This vest, like the shirt I purchased, can be worn in any conditions and matches well with "modern" style clothing.

Fundamental work shirt
Excellent quality. Outstanding workmanship. Pricing extremely fair. This is the shirt I've been looking for for years. I've worn it repeatedly, not at ren faires or other venues of that type, but to work, church, and dinner with my wife. I highly recommend this shirt to anyone looking to be original and well dressed.

Mustache tape
The tape did not have a split in the middle on one side. it was very difficult to get the backing off the tape once it was on the mustache. not a pleasant experience.

Awesome!
Everything it looks to be. Would be nice though, if a stronger material could be added to reinforce the collar and help it hold its shape better.

Just what I needed!
I received the blouse and tried it on and it fit. The sleeves were a little snug but I can move the buttons enough to make it comfortable. After adjusting all the ties it worked just right. I'm pleased, as always, with my purchase and will be purchasing again soon.
