We have successfully ordered numerous products from you and almost never have any issue. Our last order needed to be returned because it was too small. It was promptly credited to our account and another blouse was rapidly sent out to us as a separate order. Each and every time we have ordered a product from you we have been well satisfied with the customer service as well as the product ordered.

Bought a suit years ago for husband/Santa for a dunk tank event. It was great. These are improved. Same fabric but improved waistband construction.

Very sturdy.
Very good quality. I wrapped a bit of black ribbon between the crow and the cane. But that was just what I wanted to do.

GREAT Period Piece
I will be officiating a Victorian / Gothic wedding and I wanted to add to my ensemble, and saw this piece and thought it would be perfect. The unit seems very sturdy. In my case, it was one solid piece of wood (not threaded) and the "raven / crow" feels very sturdy and the entire piece feels very sturdy. I will report back after I use this for a while to see how it holds up. BUT ... it does feel much sturdier than other walking sticks I have looked at.

If you want to bring back class you must get these...
Fantastic product. I have worn them for a now out with my wife and everyone was not only praises how sharp I looked, but mamy praised for knowing what spatz are. I bought an extra pair just incase.

Their costumes are always high quality
The pants run a little tight in the waist and thighs, so I order the next size up since they have no stretch. They are not hemmed to allow for all heights.

Looks amazing, actually fits the size it says!
I looked around for months trying to find a vest of this style that fit. I'm a larger guy so that can be a very tall order when sizes on amazon say 2XL but actually fit more like a medium. I even tried a 5XL and believe me, nothing will start to eat at you like going way above the size you normally wear and it still won't fit!!! Thankfully I found the Historical Emporium whose customer support worked with me to ensure that the size I ordered fit as expected. I couldn't have been more thrilled when it arrived and fit perfectly, not to mention it feels very authentic and of a high quality. You can't go wrong with this company (just make sure to take measurements before ordering).

Excellent quality!
Fits perfectly. Purchased a size 36. If your tall like me, you're gonna love these steampunk pants. If you're shorter, plan on taking them to a tailor. But the quality is worth it!

This fit fairly well, and as someone who is extremely sensitive to the sun, I always burn, this was actually a perfect swim suit. Plus every thinks it looks awesome

Holds my SAA 7 1/2 Inch Barrel Colt Cavalry
Holds my SAA 7 1/2 inch barrel, but just barely. If it were a half inch longer, it would be perfect. And, it is affordable, which goes a long way in finding a holster for the Colt Cavalry Model. Looks like good heavy leather that will last and I debated whether it rated 5 stars or only 4 - decided 4 since it could use the extra half inch. Nice color leather, dark and and seems well made

Best work pants
I got tired of the new skinny metro-sexual style jeans that don't hold up to a serious days work. And having regular jeans fall off my butt, even with a belt, just made the decision to find a replacement that much easier. Was recommended these by Mr. Chickadee and haven't looked back. Not only are they the same material as carhartt pants but they have suspender buttons that actually look nice. None of those old fat guy suspenders with the gator clips that look like garbage. The style of these pants is old skool. So, if you're trying to return to monke, these are it. I have gotten many compliments. My wife says they compliment the male body shape due to the high waist. I don't recommend these for "out on the town" pants. They are work pants made of canvas. Very durable. But I do have the standard cotton pants from the same company and they are very nice with a dress shirt and matching suspenders with a pair of allen edmonds. Also, as mentioned, they are the same material as carhartt. So, if your gonna wear them on a summer day, you will sweat. They are durable and thick. I wear mine mostly in the winter or if the job is gonna be really dirty. Ditch the skinny jeans and return to the classics.

Lighter than expected, well built
XXL fits larger than expected, but not drastically. Canvas feels durable. Lighter and cooler than expected. Pockets are reasonably sized and useful.

Bigger is Better, Capes are Warm
This is a cape, and some might not understand what that means when they purchase, because most folks in the U.S. don't go about wearing capes often. Good wool, good liner, very warm, good design. It is a "one size fits most," garment. People who are less than 5 feet tall will probably find this coat too long (although it can be tailored). It is much bigger than I thought that it would be. The benefit is that it will fit over whatever you are wearing. It will fit over and protect/conceal your clothes, baby, lap dog, armour, weapons, tools, backpack (but maybe not all at once its not totally Mary Poppins.) It will also make a general purpose blanket if you are trapped in the cold somewhere. I recommend it. Capes for everyone.

Big boy likes alot
It fits the 3x/4x is true its true. Being a big person it's always a crap shoot when ordering something like this when I go to the event I'll take some photos. Extremely happy.

Sturdy and thick material
There's nothing bad I can say about these pants. Right after I put them on I felt how well made and sturdy they are. Solid quality. Been wearing them for film shoots and on the daily basis. No complaints from me so far. Will try them on horseback and then will see :)

Fantastic holster
This Holster was just exactly what I was looking for. It fit my six gun very well. Make sure you measure yourself around the hips where the holster will sit, not just around your waist.

Beautiful! Classic appearance; Well made; performs well even while wearing a suit beneath the cloak. Both fantasy and vintage style mixed together. Exactly what I ordered; exactly what I imaged.

Holster
Purchased the cross draw for a 1851 Revolver and it fit well. A little deep but will work. Contrary to popular belief, quick draw was a movie theory and not real life. Most holsters were not designed for quick draw.

Belt and Holster
First length was way off, Second length was good. If you are going to buy this item then add 4 inches to your pants belt size. If you buy it too big, then it will hang too low and your arm will not reach the pistol.

Navy Work Shirt
These shirts are purchased for my husband as a work shirt. The quality is excellent. He loves these shirts and wants one in every color. This makes his 6th shirt. He has four already that he has worn / lasted for three years so far and has a lot more wear to go. I just purchased two more and he loves the colors and wants more!!!

Victorian Blouse
A very attractive, high quality blouse that is perfect for the timeline we would use it in. The only thing to be aware of is that it does run fairly small so you will have to order a larger size than your usual order.

Collar Studs, Gold Tone (3-pack)
I use these for detachable collars. The button holes in the collars can get stretched by the studs making them less effective.

Four-in-Hand Ties
These are good, especially for the price but are a bit longish and can require additional adjustment as the back part can extend below the front part. Four-in-hand seems to be an apt term as trying to tie a Full Windsor Knot can be problematic.
