I am very happy with the workmanship and the product itself. I has shopped around and could not find a complete belt and holster of such good workmanship, design and price. I am very happy to have found this company and item on the internet. Like many I did not measure properly as directed at first, and when I contacted customer service, they listened to my concerns and wishes and made the procedure a very pleasant one. I highly recommend this company and this product. You will too.

First time using y'all but will NOT be my last! I've always admired the classic looks and wish they'd make a come back. Well, I'm certainly going to try to bring back the style of the 20s in my small TX town. Thank you all so much!

Outstanding customer service. The very helpful young lady on the phone who took my order even went through stock for me to pick out the darkest wood stain from the batch of canes they had in stock. Thank you very much, I'm very happy with my purchase.

Holster rig purchased was not designed specifically for my revolver however, did fit it and three other size pistols. Everyone has stated about the beauty and quality asking constantly how I made it so quickly. I do make leather holsters. Then I tell them I couldn't buy the leather for the price I bought it they wanted the web site.

I emailed customer service for help in returning a safari jacket that I had purchased online. Not only did they help me, but worked with me at every stage to answer every question, and even measure a replacement coat. Truly one of the few great experiences that I have ever had with any customer service department. A first class operation beyond measure.

The service from Historical Emporium is fast, courteous - really the best. There are times I think about ordering from someone else and then I remember how great the service is and I go ahead and order again from Historical Emporium. Thank you all for your wonderful work.

I ordered 3 items for my husband as we are doing a reenactment of a colonial wedding and my husband is a carriage shot gun assistant and a bartender at the colonial tavern. I was so pleased with the quality and it came really quick. Couldn't ask for better.

Had a question about how to shape one of the holsters to conform to my pistol. The customer service rep knew exactly how to solve my problem. Her explanation about the construction of my holster allowed me to "fix" mine in about 30 seconds. First class all the way, both product and people.

I am delighted to trade with your company. As you have performed to my interpretation of your sales and marketing descriptions, you have surely done well.. So far the product has met my interpretation as to your description and promise. To expect anything other than a thank you for doing what you promised and a positive referral to others by way of word of mouth, well has become too AMERICAN of late....I suspect this too also has been watered down by conventional wisdom.. My guess is to continue to do the right thing for the right reason and you will surely prevail...To get an International Rating of 5 STARS , you got to be REALLY over the TOP , not just do what would normally be expected of a reputable business..

Noel is a godsend! We ordered 12 pairs of pants for a theatrical production and needed them by our tech week. Everything arrived just as promised, except for one pair that was a "special order." The estimated delivery wasn't until July 10, so I hadn't bothered looking at the tracking number until that day. I found out that afternoon that the post office had marked the package "undeliverable." The Post Service doesn't deliver to our physical address, but UPS and FedEx do, so we use a PO Box. All of this was listed in the order and notes made in the special instructions section about which delivery service used which address. Noel saw the mistake and fixed it! He went above and beyond the call of duty! Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! He also did this as I had a supreme emotional breakdown and he kept his cool and kept a level head! Bravo!

Maria was my first customer service representative as I made my initial costume items. She was very helpful. Noel was my second and subsequent customer service representative as I made additional purchases and had to return one clothing item due to being cut too small. I am a part-time actor as I portray 1910 circa male characters such as a bartender. I am affiliated with the Clark-Wells House which is an historical site first constructed in 1909. Other members of my historical team plan on purchasing from you in the near future in preparation for various events that are enhanced by period clothing. Thanks, Ettore Castellente

This derby is a great fit and very cool in the hot Florida summer. I wear it for a 19th Century visitor program at the Castillo de San Marcos and it is much more comfortable in 90 degree whether than my other Emporium derby that I use in cooler weather.

Very Nice
I love this vest. My only complaint that it is slightly bigger than I thought based on their sizing recommendations, but the next size down probably would have been too small.

Petticoat rules!
This petticoat fits the need perfectly. The double flounce on the petticoat fluffs the dress out nicely. Pay attention to the waist size on this - I did and I'm very glad I ordered the small; the size chart works well for this item.

Nice warm vest
I'm 5'9" and 150 lbs and I ordered a small. It fits perfect with the strap on the back pulled in a little. I've noticed it is warmer than my old thin leather vest. Nice buttons that have a pewter look. Four pockets are nice to have. Looks like a cotton liner, not nylon or synthetic. I wear it with my Dodge City pants. Both are great quality.

Great Pants
I'm 5'9" and 150 lbs. I usually wear a 32 waist and I ordered the 34 waist for these pants as suggested by other customers. They fit perfect. An old style woven fabric, straight legs, not tight at the bottom. I cut a few inches off the legs. Nice deep pockets. I paired these with a Stafford wool vest in small.

Quality piece
The vest is very well made and fit perfectly. I am trying to replicate a railroad conductor's uniform and this vest is as close as they come to what was worn by old time railroad conductors.

These black pants look even better from the back. Detail is great. Very long so that they can fit anyone. Have to tack them up on the inside. Don't forget to get the suspenders to hold them up and complete the look.

This shirt is amazing. Lots of attention to details. Color is beautiful. This is going with black pants. Be ready to take them up as the length is long so that it can fit more sizes. I am going to tack them up on the inside. Very pleased with the quality and fit.

Good Value
I have bought these holsters form tack and feed stores over 20 years ago and they still look new. Mostly they are for theatrical use and are solid. If it was a work everyday (Professional Cowboy deal) I would get it double stitched. But I am pleased with the product as is for my use. In fact I ordered it in two different sizes. One fits fine with designer jeans, the other bigger one is for full cowboy with chaps. Follow the sizing advise when ordering. 4-6 inches over your waist size would be advisable.

High-Rider Western Cartridge Belt
I was pleasantly surprised that not only did the belt show up so quickly but how great the quality is. This is a very stout, well made belt. It looks great! Unfortunately I ordered a size too small so I returned the belt for the next size up. Looking forward to getting the new one.
