We saw this at the last moment and decided it was the perfect shirt for the wedding. We were a little worried whether or not it would arrive in time, but it arrived earlier than expected!!! It looked perfect with his tailored suit.. I could not be happier.

My first order was shipped on the same day as ordered and delivered in two days. At first, I thought many items were a bit pricey, but after seeing the quality of the items ordered I was convinced it was certainly worth the cost to get quality items. I'm am extremely please with everything ordered and received so far. I will most certainly be purchasing additional items and highly recommend this site for quality period clothing. These products are the real deal, actual durable clothing and not just costume stuff.

This is not the first time I shopped at Historical Emporium. I am a professional photographer as a second profession and a performance artist for fun. When I have needed affordable and not bespoke affordable and off the shelf quality items which are sufficiently historically accurate and ready to ship for my projects I look to Historical Emporium. I will be honest; I have had to have some additional tailoring done on some products to get exactly the look I wanted, but most of my purchases have been "Ready to Wear" as they are.

I ordered the skirt and blouse for an event. I received it within 4 days. The material was very good quality. The fit was perfect according to the size chart. I will buy again from them again.

Super fast shipping across the country. I purchased a cut away coat, vest and tie for an historical portrayal our community presents in our founders' cemetery. My costume was a big hit (as well as my superb acting, of course).

I had one pair of pants that did not fit, time is kind of an issue so I bought another pair up sized, and returned the first pair. The speed at which they got my second order out, and then the speed at which they issued a refund we're amazing!

Perfect
Another product very well made. Perfect for the twill skirt I purchased. I was surprised to find how easy it is to store. The lower hoop adjusts easily to a smaller hoop.

beautifully made
Very impressive quality. It's a rather heavy weight fabric, I like the body it provides. I'm wearing it with the hoop skirt. It goes well with a black blouse for a widow look and I have a burgundy ruffle blouse that looks beautiful with it as well.

Heavy Duty Stuff
This duster is constructed of heavy weight canvas material, it's "real deal" clothing, and clearly not just light weight "costume" stuff. I looks and feels just like I expected and seems more than durable enough for daily wear. I recommend using the sizing charts available to obtain a good fit, they were dead-on for me. This was my second item purchased through this site and I have been very pleased by the quality of both. Great period products and quick customer service. I'll be back.

First Rate Quality
I ran across this site by accidently while searching for a holster/belt for a newly purchased hand gun. I was skeptical at first thinking this would be costume "cheap stuff" but I gave them a try and couldn't have been more wrong. I received a belt/holster combo 2-days after I ordered it that was much better than many I had previously purchased through gun suppliers. I used the sites sizing chart to determine belt size and it fit perfectly. The holster seemed a bit small at first look but my single action pistol fit it like a glove. The leather tooling is absolutely superb. Overall a great purchase experience, first-rate product and outstanding customer service.

Leather Holster
Nice value, fit very well. Only a slight problem with the hammer loop, wasn't long enough to go over hammer. I would buy another though! Editor's Note: The hammer strap is meant to be adjustable, but sometimes gets stuck when the finish sets into the leather. If you pull on the strap with a little force, it should break free. You can then pull on the loose ends of the strap to tighten it over the hammer.

A gentleman's hat
I have wanted to get this hat for sometime to go along with my period suit and finally did. It is so very well made and looks great. I wish I could wear it everyday.

fit
Jacket is nice and seems well made - but the fit is "off" a bit. Sleeves are very snug even in a larger size.

Cross Draw Black Leather Holster
Yes, this is a 5 star review plain and simple. Not only did this holster fit my 1858 Remington, but also fit my S&W model 29 both with 8" barrel lengths. The holster is sleek and well made, real leather, and a real eye catcher. Pretty rare when I am 100% satisfied with anything, but yes this is one of those times. Recommend it hands down.

Great fabric!
We ordered per the instructions and they seemed a bit baggy so we sent them back. Got a speedy return and they fit perfectly. There is a bit extra at the cuffs so we had a little breathing room there. The fabric quality is fabulous, sturdy and well sewn. Makes we want to order a jacket.

Fine product, but not for me.
Looking for a light weight vest, but this product didn't work in that regard.

Cheaply made, but cheap price
Not a heirloom watch, but what can you expect for less than $30.

Holster
This right hand cross was to go on an Emporium right hand drop loop gun belt. Initially concerned as to the cross draw holster able to fit on the 2 3/4" gun belt. Emailed Historical Emporium, timely reply back all OK. Excellent holster, fits nice, chocolate brown color matches perfect. Quality product, a quality company.

Just what I needed
I was looking for an appropriate shirt to wear with my Heroes of 76 uniform. This one fits the bill with a fancy addition. The shirt fits nicely and the jabot is easy putting on and taking off. Looks real nice with my uniform. Thank you!

Get what you pay for
This is exactly what the price indicates. A decent piece of leather, somewhat thin in the belt. Hardware is just ok. This is a couple steps above straight costume, but to hold an $800 gun, spend the extra to get something more heavy duty.

Great for me
This was exactly what I was looking for to complete a 1920's costume. I ordered a size bigger than usual and do think the sizes are true to form, but is still working out okay with socks. Great customer service too.

Regency fall front trousers
They were well made with quality fabric. However, they are exceptionally long in the legs. As the fabric is quite thick, it makes taking up big gems very bulky...

This is a HIGH Quality Shirt and I suspect it will last a long time. The stitching and material are top quality. I recommend this shirt if you are looking for a great dress shirt.
