I have almost forgot about this shirt. I hope I'm not too late. I ordered a 2XL and it swallowed me whole. I still have this and the box it came in. Not sure if I need just an XL or maybe a large.

Great customer service. My gifts arrived before Christmas and I only ordered them the week before. I made an error when I ordered and they were quick to fix it once I realized my mistake. It was a pleasure to order from them.

I was completely satisfied with my purchase. It was a last minute decision to but my vest, so I paid for expedited shipping. It arrived 2 days before I was told to expect the delivery. Thanks for such great service.

The coat ran a little large , shoulders a bit wide ,as I don't think you can buy a 51 , and a 50 usually doesn't have enough sleeve or shoulder room , almost got a 50 just to try , I have a 34 waist and I'm 6'1 so overall the look is classic , just may have to try a 50 or get it tailored , AMAZING LOOK OVER ALL !

Ordered a shirt for me and 2 as a gift for a friend. Got a selection detachable collars for all the shirts. Forgot to order the collar studs, but was able to call and have two packs added to my order before it shipped out. Awesome.

I was surprised that material for my Trousers was predominantly synthetic. Not obvious to those not knowledgeable - and I should have known - but disappointing. Also, a fire hazard around open flames (a constant reenacting danger and peeiodically the environment in which I operate).

I bought these because they're funny looking and I could also use them at work. They are good enough as far as I can see. They have a green tinted lens.

lens problem
I bought these as a gift to myself because I thought they looked unusual and I could use them at work. Unfortunately, as soon as I opened the package a lens fell out and broke. They are supposed to be secured by screw on metal rings but they don't hold, they spin and don't secure. They were a clearance item or close out so I guess that's the reason not so good.

SIZING
I usually wear a 32 to 34 waist and ordered a 38 and they are very comfortable not to loose. Remember the trousers are 100% cotton and will shrink just a bit after first wash and dryer. Will order another pair of trousers and try a 36 this time knowingly they will fit also. Had the leg length shortened up to 31" and tapered as well. The bottoms of the legs are 9" wide and had them tapered upwards from 8". Great fit now. The Wahmaker trousers are very sturdy and well made. A solid pair of pants.

Very small large people
I have purchased a few “3x” items through HE and been very happy with them. This one, however, still a “3x” item, was MAYBE a Large or XL at the most, though labeled “3x”. Followed the given guide, although I admit a quick glance as I had no problems to date with sizes.

I love it, it’s perfect for my needs. I am am a petite so it is too long for me but it is very easy to shorten. Although petite sizes would be great.

Surprise Surprise
I’ll skip the 5 star explanation; after all, one quick scan of this site and you’ll see countless 5 stars. Instead, I’ll focus on the product. I received a size 56 belt, single action army, .38/.357 caliber right hand draw holster combo in black. What can I say, I’m a large guy. I’ve own(ed) and professionally used countless holster/belts (to include wearing out a few) over 30 years. I also worked at a very large big box sporting Goods Company selling many of their rigs for every reason/season imaginable so I'll self-proclaim my expertise here. That said, before I lead with the phrase “for the price”, I need to back up and state, this holster/belt combo is by far more than what I expected. The quality is excellent, having 45 loops evenly stitched, both horizontally and vertically, while securely gripping each round was a pleasant surprise. The scalloped flower pattern is deep and tastefully done, the black dye did not bleed over any part of my clothing, the holster holds all of my SAAs (5.5 BBL) tightly once you’ve press and form the opening per instruction (if needed, this isn’t an absolute), and the fasteners, buckle and overall appearance is very good. I warn those who like to fast draw their SAA a lot, the trigger housing is completely cover (not accessible once holstered) and although the stitching contacting this point is reinforced, forcefully holstering your gun could split it over time. Here is wear a brass fastener (or round rivet) threaded across would work just fine for that kind of action, again, that's for you gun twirling types. Compared to the competition out there, this holster/belt combo could easily fetch way more than what I paid for it. Now back to the “for the price” thing. Historical Emporium pricing is fair while applying great customer service. This is why I keep coming back and look forward to my next order. Thx for all that you do. Have a great New Year!

White Scarf
The scarf is made of a very soft cashmere and is long enough to tie in a classic knot. The scarf is an iridescent white.

Khaki Pants
These pants are perfect khakis for a gentleman like myself. The pants have a classic rise that comes to the navel and a fish back. The pockets are lined in the khaki canvas. If you are a slimmer gentleman like myself you will want to order in the same size (or even a size smaller) than your typical pants as these sit at the stomach and not at the hips like modern fashion pants.

Great waistcoat, but there's a catch.
The waistcoat is of excellent construction, very durable, and pretty to look at. However, as others have noted, it IS a bit on the high waisted side. Me and the person I ordered it for share the same chest measurement, yet while it fits my 5'10" frame well, when he, being 6'1" wears it, there is a visible 1.5" gap between the waist of his pants and the hem of the vest. This is no strike against the vest itself, as it is of excellent quality, but if it could be made a BIT taller, it would have been perfect. Still looks good as the finishing touch on his War Doctor cosplay :) Thank you!

Great Classic Canvas Vest

Perfect for living history
I own this blouse in several colors because it is so nice to wear a Victorian style that does not need to be tucked in and/or added waist cover (gives me an effortless, feminine silhouette). It is made of a thick, durable cotton that is comfortable to wear and even the puffy sleeves hold up very well with repeated machine washings. I'm more of a small size fit but due to the snug forearm/wrist tailoring, I prefer wearing a size medium. Excellent purchase!

Holster and gun belt
Great deal and fast service! Good quality and looks great. Holster has metal liner sandwiched between two 1/8 inch pieces of leather. This allows you to adjust the holster so that it either holds the gun snugly or can be made to loosely hold the gun for fast draw. That is a feature usually found on high end Hollywood repro rigs costing three times the price..or more. I removed the leg tie down as not being needed and used a piece leather shoe lace to secure the holster pouch to the skirt. THE holster fits the belt so well that it does not flop around. I got a holster and belt with the best features of the expensive Hollywood rero "walk and draw" holsters at a fraction of the cost.

Brand new hat in one easy step!
I love these hat bands! This was the first one I purchased and I found it good quality and easy to use. Learning how to get the hooks set properly took a minute, maybe a minute and a half because my house has bad lighting, but when you've done it once, you could repeat it in your sleep. End result is that I want one in every colour. The only thing worth noting with this particular band is that while 'gold' is certainly not an inaccurate description, it is not the bright, yellow gold I had anticipated, but rather a browner, almost bronze gold. Having worked with colour a lot, this should not have been surprising (mix yellow and black and you tend to get some dreadful greens -and I love green! - so the browner tones are safer), but it did rather kill the idea of using it for my dress Hufflepuff outfit. Instead it will be relegated to Christmas, my million variations on steampunk attire, and if I ever make one (which I probably will because I'm a dork like that), a Ravenclaw dress outfit. In short, it's lovely, very versatile, and I do not regret the purchase, it just didn't serve the immediate purpose.

The photo suggests the blouse is gray, but it is as advertised - black and white stripes. Good quality. A very smart addition to my Dickens Faire outfit. Received several compliments. Read the hints on sizing. I did, and it fits perfectly.

Quality trousers
These trousers are comfortable, fit great (did purchase one size larger like was told) great for men who carry a gun in pocket because of very deep pockets, also can carry my gloves, etc. when out in pasture working. I am very pleased with the quality and fit. I purchased the suspenders from you also.

Western Gun Belt & Holster
I was very disappointed with the quality of the leather. The back of the belt was very wrinkled; not acceptable at all. I returned my purchase immediately requesting a full refund of the purchase price along with the freight cost to return it.

Great shirt
I love the material and style of the shirt. Packaging was great and felt adequate (perhaps better) to protect the item from anything that fate would throw at it. I especially love the fluted chest fabric, as it looks very dashing.

Very pleased!
This was a Christmas gift for my husband, so he just opened it yesterday--been wearing it ever since. He LOVES it! Perfect weight fabric, & seems VERY well constructed. Sizing is perfect for him too! He's already decided that he wants to take a look at your other "no collar" shirts, which are increasingly tough to find at affordable prices.
