it fits well and I like it very much

This slouch hat is nothing special, like me. It's made in New York with Lite Felt. Lite Felt is just high quality, compact, felted-fur. I'm wearing it now while writing this. I wear it everyday. It fits great and feels great all the time. That's important for this hat because I'm always wearing it. I have had problems in the past with other hats (all hats -even from NY HatCo) not being able to stretch to my headshape. The hat in the photo is a tad light. The comments on this don't really make sense. Most all of the products on HE are separate from their lit counter-part. I'm just glad it's not glowing and green. I will conclude this overly written review with the hat is simple. There is plenty of room for improvement. I might even throw the Gold Satin on...

Pretty much the same as the review for the Summerhill pants. The color combination for the Chadwick outfit fits what i wanted and needed for performing in the park. Do wish there was a spat option to really make the look.

An alternative to the Summerhill outfit. Nice look, comfortable fit for performing my park magic show. Lining is a bit much for a fat man who sweats easy. Easy to maintain and the material is much better than the man made alternatives of other vests. Works well with my straw skimmer and brass goggles. Having four working pockets is a real plus while performing.

My review for the matching vest is pretty much the same for the pants. They fit well and are comfortable. Combined with the vest and spats it give me one of the costumes I use for park/busking magic show.

If you get the pants and vest, go all the way and get the spats. Works with many styles of shoes and just sets the look right.

Looks and feels like pillow and mattress ticking. But that is what I was looking for in a park/busking costume as a magician. Easy self maintenance that still stands out to draw a crowed for the performance. Would rather have an unlined option just because I am fat and sweat easily, but the material breaths better than man made fibers.

Some of the other goggles are rather large and bulky for my needs. The black painted brass frames fit very well and after removing the paint was the very look and weight I wanted. I did remove and replaced the nose strap and strap ties with black leather with a slip adjuster. Resewed the cotton linen edge liner so they were more secure. I use them with my straw boater hat and look outstanding.

To be honest, I have not yet worn my new suit. It does require some tailoring. I knew that it would when I purchased it. That said, the material seems quite good. It looks terrific and I cannot wait for spring!

These boots look great but they are extremely uncomfortable. They pinch and have no arch support. I do not recommend them.

A beautifully made piece! Flawless. Exceeded my expectations. Fits my 1871 Uberti Navy 45 like a glove.

It was very well made and fit very well also.

This was my first ascot. Not knowing what to expect, I was somewhat worried about how it would look and wear. Wow! What a great result! The order arrived quickly, well packaged, and the quality of the product is first rate. However, I wish HE offered a better selection of pins/tacks to accent it. But, as it is this is a great ascot and I highly recommend it!

I ordered this vest sort of as a trial. Having never ordered anything from these guys before, and wondering if the low price meantalso meant low quality, I held my breath. The order arrived very quickly. I must say I am very pleased with the product! The fit is perfect, the fabric and construction first rate, and the look when worn with my costume is every bit as good as the photo on the website. I highly recommend this vest and I expect to order more items from HE soon!

Trust me, One of these shirts isn't enough. they are on my list to order more!

Had to wait a while to get this coat as it was out of stock, but well worth the wait! Fits great and I now wear it as my everyday "nice" coat. Well made, feels wonderful - I highly recommend this coat. This is my 6th purchase from the Emporium and I know there will be more.

a perfect fit. I will have to order more!

Love them, Love them, Love them!

These are first-class trousers, made of a very thick cotton. All sewing and buttons are top notch. Regarding sizing, I wear Levi's in a 33 waist, but followed the instructions and ordered a 36 pair of Ludlows. Waaaay too big. Reordered a 34 which fit perfectly! Fantastic purchase!

This is a great quality, great-looking vest. Sewing quality is outstanding. The material is thick and soft. Buttons are quality, too. I normally would fall into the Large sizing, which I ordered initially, but had to re-order a Medium, which fit perfectly.

If I wanted to nitpick, I would wish the fabric of this shirt to be a bit heavier. As it is, it appears to be well made and true to the mid 19th century style. I'm happy with it and will make additional orders in the near future.

Looks even better in real life.

I love my pair of Rockvale shirts. I had purchased then as part of a costume but will likely wear them often, and probably with one of my many vests.

The cotton material these pants are made with really add a lot of class and authenticity. Very sturdy, like you won't snag, wreck or split it no matter how much you try. Really glad I went with this over wool!

I really appreciate this coat. The lighter weight is excellent in slightly warmer weather! It hangs well. I would note that this coat has shoulder pads, so those ordering should be aware of that.

Soft, nice quality velvet, not heavy (like I thought it would be), very comfortable, and looks even better in real life than it does in the pictures!

I received my Western gun belt Holster a couple of weeks ago and it is good quality, i am very satisfied with the holster i finally received. I had to sent the first 2 holsters back because the snap on the holsters broke when i tried to unsnap them. The 3rd holster was fine. Let me say i was very satisfied with the service i received from the co. when i called and explained the problem, they corrected it immediately to my satification. I would have given five stars if not for the snaps.I will do business with them again.

I am totaly satisfied with the hat I receivd,the fit is perfect,not too tight but just tight enough to keep it on my head in the wind,and not too loose that it does not stay.This hat is so very comfortable that I almost feel that it is not on my head.The size is perfect and the felt is so very comforting and in the rain,when I bent over to tie my boot,the water just poured off and was not absorbed and it dryed very fast when I got home.I love this hat and I bonded with it after 15 minutes after putting it on,this is my first hat of this type and I have had people tell me that it looks great.I feel proud when I wear it and allways look forward to the next time that I know I will be wearing it.i will certainly recomend this site to anyone that asks me about this hat.Thank You for seding me the exact hat that I was looking for and i think that your company is so very awesome.Thanking you again,Robert Andersen

This vest is of a quiet fabric, but it has an assertive design. You have to unbutton/button not only the ten visible buttons, but also one behind a lapel, I guess to keep the collar fastened. Nicely done!

The basic pattern consists of 1 3/8" squares that are subdivided into four smaller squares, each of which has a different weave of medium blue and dark blue; the overall effect is of a medium blue. I judge that the pattern is probably hard to see unless you're within 4' of the vest. The workmanship seems good, but after wearing this a couple of times I noticed loose light horizontal threads in each button hole. The stitching there seems okay, though. It's comfortable. In my opinion this vest is subtle but different enough to be noticed.

I do not often purchase items online, particularly clothing. However, in shopping for an attractive, conservative Victorian style vest, I liked the Astor. I decided order it. Because I ordered a large, the company told me to expect it in 10 to 14 days. It arrived in just over a week, and I was absolutely amazed at the quality of the fabric, the workmanship, the fit, and the overall product. I have worn it everyday for work and leisure since December 31, 2016 and I am absolutely satisfied with this product. I will definitely do business with Gentleman's Emporium in the future. In fact, a female friend of mine has ordered two garments from the site and she is equally thrilled. She said she shops garments online constantly, and she has never been more satisfied.

My wife absolutely loved it, got it as a present for her, perfect fit. Quality is also really good.

Fits me and my Pistol like a glove. Beautiful craftsmanship in all aspects of this product. Friends and Family are already on the site looking for items for themselves as I was quick to show them what I had purchased.

I got this vest mostly because I needed a strapless vest that I could wear without having to constantly readjust it throughout the day. Once I got this vest I really liked the texture of the fabric, the style of the front (particularly the double breasted button pattern), and the ease of fit and use. Definitely got a lot of complements and the price point seemed very reasonable for a vest like this, so I'd recommend it for anyone like me who likes to have a bit of formal wear that isn't too much of a hassle to use.

I love my new waistcoat; fantastic quality and color.

Very happy with this purchase. Fit as expected and nice thick cotton material. Have received multiple compliments on it already!

Well made product; perfect for Madi Gras!
