I ordered a vest and a shirt. The shirt is way too big. I ordered another shirt in a smaller size. It is perfect. I will be sending the other shirt back. I love the vest. It is for my wedding day. Can't wait.

Very nice selection and pricing. Never any unexpected surprises. My only real gripe is that you don't offer more mens' shirts in a Tall size. (XLT or LT)

My husband loves his pants! They are easy to get into and take off. The fabric is thick and of good quality. They have buttons for suspenders and keep you warm but don't make you too hot either. I was really excited about the price too. It's not often that you find a pair of pants or Trousers for such a good quality and price. Cant say enough about your store and am telling all my rendezvous friends about it. I hope they check you guys out because I just cant say enough good things about your store.

Very pretty
This is my third item I have ordered. I have to say that it is, like the others, very well made. One should be aware that like another reviewer stated, it is a linen like cotton material which is why they call it "pioneer", having a homespun look to it, I guess. I really wish it had been a finer cotton. The color is more of a warmer chartreuse than a cooler mint. I am keeping it because it fits so well. I normally take an extra large size but I ordered a large. The armseyes are up and close and not the modern way where they start almost at the waist. That was very important to me in trying to keep a period correct look. Also, the high neck is snug enough. I am going to pair it with a stiff white collar and a tie. Now I just need to finish the rest of the outfit. Can't wait to wear it.

AAA Retailer
These guys are the best at what they do, hands down. I found a shirt I really liked at Frontier Classics, however they do not sell to the public, so you have to purchase their products from one of the six on-line retailers. Ok great, well the problem is that none of the retailers carry's the shirt!!! It's apparently new and not in the system yet, so that made me want it even more...no body else would be wearing it!!! After E-mailing all six of the suppliers only a few even bothered to answer me back. Everyone said they don't have it, well I knew that or I would have already ordered it...lol. None of them would go the extra mile and get the shirt for me except Historical Emporium!!! They were fast and friendly with their service and response. I'll be doing more business with them and none with the other vendors. Oh and the quality of the shirt is better than I expected and I'm a happy customer! Okay...I'll give it to you...the shirt is called the Huckleberry from Frontier Classics and a super cool design, I got one in black and one in red, just don't wear yours when I'm wearing mine!!! lol. Also the only retailer that will get you one? You guessed it.

Great hat
The gambler hat is one of the best hats I've ever purchased. It came just exactly how it appears in the picture when ordered. It's very stylish. Its a must buy. Fits perfect ! I get compliments almost every time I wear it.

A Great Boot!
Purchased a Mens Size 10 as was recommended by a staff member. But upon reading other reviews to "size down" I went against my good judgement and ordered a 10. Nope, it was WAY too big. No problemo, I got them exchanged for a Size 9 in record time. The boot itself is very well constructed, and tough to withstand anything. The leather is soft but sturdy, indeed. But the issue was sizing. DO READ the reviews as well as mine that say to "size down"! Example: I wear a 10D, but had to go with a 9E (I believe these boots are E width no matter what size you get). Thou, the size 9 boot were a tad loose in the heel box and vamp...no problemo. I slipped in a pair of Dr. Scholls "dimply" footpads and wore a pair of thick athletic socks..!BAM!...a nice snug fit, BUT with a tad of heel slippage that you ACTUALLY want because as the toe box and vamp wear in around your foot, (and hopefully you walk heel to toe/ military march) your heel eventually settles into the heel cup for a really great fit! I also knocked in some metal heel taps because I destroy boot heels from wear n tear. Anyway, SIZE DOWN 1 FULL SIZE (no half sizes) than you normally wear and you will very satisfied. I will shop from Historical Emporium again!

Hellfire Vest
Very high quality vest. Looks great and fits as advertised. I wear vests a lot as part of my more formal "Western" attire, with a jacket and bolo, although it is not as a costume for me. It would easily serve either purpose. I will buy from this vendor again. Fast service, good shipping containers and vest was ready to wear on arrival.

It’s super, thanks for asking
I already have a cowboy hat (also black, and that still fits) in the more traditional style, one that I got when in Old Albuquerque back in 1996. I love hats in general, and I wanted something of a cowboy type but a different style. Having shopped here before, I returned to check out their Western items. I immediately fell in love with this hat. It arrived insanely fast, fits perfectly, and the material construction is as excellent as the obnoxiously awesome top hat I purchased awhile back (I forget the proper name, but it’s tall and also black). I plan on ordering a leather belt/holster eventually, and I see nothing but good things there too. Indeed, everything appears to be of high quality, and my experiences up to now give me no reason to doubt that. When I contacted the website directly to let them know how much I liked my new hat and the speed with which it arrived, they responded quickly and were friendly. It’s for want of money and storage space that I don’t buy more. I highly recommend both this website and the Soft Gambler hat. You won’t be disappointed.

Arm Garters
The were of good quality and did not slide around on the sleeves. They held things in place. While I would have liked them a bit wider I have no complaints. Looked good as an accessory w my gambler outfit.

Good-looking & Sturdy!
I’m very pleased with the vest. It is well built and looks sharp! The combination of durable canvas and fine buttons definitely says “hard-working craftsman”. I’m about 6’2”, and the longer length is great for me. It is warmer than I expected, and might be a bit too much during the summer months - but it’s still a bargain at this price!

Gorgeous shirt
I bought this shirt for my wedding to go with the River Vest. I bought an XL and it was way too big. The style of the shirt gives lots of pleating at the back for a billowy appeal. Very sharp. So, I reordered another shirt in a Medium and it fits perfectly. Wow what a great shirt. The style is wonderful, the quality is very good, and the material is a nice cotton. The shirt has sleeves that are a bit loose (on purpose) and it is a very attractive Victorian look. I will wear this to my wedding with the vest. Can't wait.

Great Vest
This is a very handsome vest. It is well made and the material is beautiful. I bought this for my wedding and am so happy with it. I can highly recommend the style and fit of this vest - exactly as described online. The sizing chart was perfect.

Oops. but OK...
Hi, I bought this helmet by accident. I actually wanted the safari hat. I'm buying the hat to wear while driving my hot rod roadster. I'll be ordering the correct hat soon. But, I wanted to say that everyone that I've shown the Pith Helmet to says that it's really cool and that I need to get some pinstriping on it. And, so I shall keep it and have that done. It's good quality and has the all important chin strap. You probably never thought your stuff would find a home in a hot rod, huh? Chili Phil

I wanted something special to wear to a conference of mining investors and decided this vest would do the job. It's distinctive without being weird.

This is a great shirt! As a kid, I remember John Wayne and the Leutanant on RinTinTin wearing shirts like this. I always wanted one. Thanks to you folks I have one now and it is of good quality. Thank you for a great product and service and I'll definitely buy from you again

More brown than crimson
Excellent quality and fit, but mine at least looks much more brown than the red that shows up in the photos. Maybe I got sent the walnut by mistake?
