Overall, I am very pleased with my purchases. I initially received sizes too large, so I exchanged them. There is a significant difference between the large and medium vest. The large was way too big and the medium barely fits. It will still work for me, but I did not expect such a significant difference in sizes. The second coat fits fine. I really appreciate how fast I received my exchange. Thank you.

I loved everything that I had ordered. The 2 gun belts I had ordered came in to big, but I had measured wrong (to low on the hip) sent back and will receive them in a few days.

I can not remember how many items I have ordered from Historical Emporium, but it has been a number of them and as of yet have not had any issues with anything I have purchased. Everything is of really good quality and well made. So far sizing has been accurate as pe the charts. Will continue to shop here.

Second purchase from your company. My first was the actual .45 caliber bullets (made harmless) for placement in my western holster. The second was a U.S. Marshall badge to go in a display case with my authentic 1893 Colt .45 Single Action Army Revolver. Very pleased with your products and your quick service. No problems with either order.

My experience was absolutely fantastic with the exception of the USPS. It took my order almost two weeks to arrive. This is in no way an issue with Historical Emporium! The clothes are fantastic! The customer service was fantastic! The Post Office was sadly lacking.

Just have to say great job Historical Emporium! Have recently ordered Dawson, Crimson, Walnut & Black canvas vests as well as the Emerald Isle vest, all have been just perfect in fit with exceptional quality. I also have the Sinclair dress shirts in both black & white which are just awesome. I have the Hunter Green, Red Duncan & Emerald Isle puff ties as well, so many compliments on my wardrobe! Shipping times to Canada have been very reliable, average of 10 days including customs clearance. Just wish shipping costs to Canada were a little less, other than that a very positive experience, thank you again, well done.

Open Range Leather Vest
I just love this vest. I was watching an old John Wayne movie the other night and this vest looks like the one he was wearing. The movie was El Dorado.

Not as pictured
The picture of the skirt I bought (it was part of an ensemble steampunk piece) had a striped pattern, which was exactly what I was looking for. The actual skirt is monochrome grey, so I returned it. I have this same skirt in black, and it is a great quality item (does run on the small side and doesn't have a lot of room to wiggle so I ended up going a size up) Not sure why they show an item for purchase that they don't sell. ----- [The Vivien skirt is as shown, solid gray with a slight heathering. -HE]

Bellamy Shirt White
I perform in a Fleetwood Mac Tribute Band. I am the drummer, so i am portraying Mic Fleetwood. He wears pirate shirts, so i ordered this one. It will work well, along with my black vest..... Now, if I could only grow about eight inches taller!!! The shirt is nice, seems like better quality than my old one. Washing it twice to try to get the unusual smell out of it

Good Quality
I like the cut of the coat and it seems to be made well. It will make a good addition to my retro, steampunk on-Playa outer wear. I wore it recently to a Club event but had to take it off as it was too hot. I did anticipate that. I think the only knock on it is that the buttons are so tightly sewn that it is hard to button up the coat. I've experienced worse. It's a good buy.

Top Class
This was the best deal I have found anyplace while looking for a SteamPunk top hat. I was thinking I hope this is close to the quality of the other hats I have bought from Historical emporium. Well first off when it arrived I was super impressed, it came in 2 boxes and the hat was in a very nice slik type bag. This would have survived a major accident in the boxes. Then the real surprise this hat fit like a glove, the product is of really high quality. One awesome purchase well worth the funds spent and I am going to be th top rooster of the groupo.

Very Nice Shirt
The shirt is very well made and I like the heavy cotton fabric. The extra full cut is a bit different from modern fit, but is period appropriate. The one feature I’m not fond of is the extended shirt tail in the back. I didn’t see this in the posted photos and would have preferred a square cut bottom.

This is going to be so cool once I get it mounted on my Steampunk themed motorcycle I am building. Just needed some bling to step up the game.

Top notch top hat!
My girlfriend and I will be attending our first steampunk fair and I wanted a hat that would be appropriate. I also like headwear that attracts attention without being too over the top, so to speak. The hat is very well made and I like the small storage pouch sewn into the headband. I ordered size small and it is a bit snug on my forehead but there is some excess space on the sides of my head so I’m hoping that it will fit better after I’ve worn it for awhile. All in all, it’s a great hat!

I was very pleased & excited when I received the lamb leather vest. The quality is excellent & the color was accurate as shown on the website. The buttons are tight on the vest. If I need other items from historical emporium I will not hesitate.

Western Gun Belt and Holster
I purchased the Western Gun Belt and Holster for my .45 cal revolver. The belt measurement suggestion was accurate and I ended up with a good fit. The ammo loops were also a good fit. The holster itself worked very nicely. My pistol fit well with only minor, simple adjustment. The quality of the leather is very good. Overall, an excellent Western Gun Belt and Holster.

Marshall Badge
I am very pleased with the Old West Marshall Badge I purchased from your company. I purchased it to go inside the display case with my authentic 1893 Colt 45 SAA Revolver. I have received very positive comments from friends who have seen it. They say it looks like it is original and really adds to the Revolver display. Thanks for such a nice product.

Perfect for my show
I bought this cane for my high school’s production of Jekyll and Hyde. The cane cane in splendid condition, with the perfect look for my production’s Hyde. The entire cane, from it’s black wood to the silver top radiates power and furosity in the hands of our Hyde. This absolute beauty of a cane is just what we were looking for. Thank you so much for such a brilliant product. I look forward to hopefully buying more from you in the future.
