Overall you are a first class organization with quality products in a unique product niche. The only problem was with the delivery time but your customer service department kept me updated. I love the hat and will highly recommend your website to others.

the delivery was amazingly fast. The workmanship was well done. I have some other items in mind that I will order in a couple of weeks.

The gun belt/holster that I purchased is impressive looking, but the leather pieces were like they were built of two mind sets. The main pieces are heavy and look to have a purpose. Yet the belt that fastens the gun belt and holster are too thin to look as if they will last very long. Despite carefully following the measurement steps, the gun belt is too long. I would send it back; but I do like the two tone brown with the 6 inch barrel length holster that it is not available in the 40 inch. I had ordered the 42 inch thinking it would be a perfect fit. Therefore, I have taken it to a saddle shop to have the thin straps replaced and relocated to effectively shorten the rig. I am also replacing the buckle with a heavier, and slightly fancier one. As far as the fit to an actual Colt 45, the pistol will easily fall into place with no sticking at any point. It fits a little deeper into the holster than I thought it would, but as I am not planning on shooting a hole in my leg doing quick draws, I would say the fit is good.

Thai purchase was for my wife Vivian. She saw the shoes that we purchased being worn at a live theater production here in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. At the end of the show, we were allowed to meet the cast. During this interaction, Vivian asked the actress involved where she purchased such unique footwear. The actress gave us your name and web site information. Not only did we fine the shoes but we were amazed at the overall price, including delivery. We did have some sizing concerns. We carefully read the web site and followed the site's recommendations. Vivian ended up contacting Customer Service and after a very comprehensive conversation, she selected the size she wanted to order using the guidence of the Customer Service Representative. The footwear arrived quickly with no complications of trans-border shopping and delivery. The shoes are of excellent quality (though Vivian had seen them on our thespian friend) and the size was perfect! Thank you so much. She loves them!

I like your site fine. I ordered the workman's shirt and it came right away. The quality is very good, but whose idea was it to add a shirt pocket to an 18th Century shirt? I work in an 18th Century blacksmith shop and I really prefer for my clothes to be reasonably authentic.

Super garment & as l was only able to get my Victorian Cutaway Morning coat in a 50" chest size (l'm 47.5") it turned out to fit me perfectly. Very happy with the Coat, the service & the delivery time. The only down side was the overall cost. With the UK £82.65 import duty, handling fees etc, it pushed the end cost to near £300! A lot of expense for one Coat. But l am pleased with it.

I am extreeeeeemely happy with my new suit with vest and hat! I had the suit tailored and it is so so very cool. High quality, fast delivery, fits great and looks fantastic! I was the "driver" for a newlywed couple from the reception to the afterparty. The wedding was '50's themed, the suit I bought was '50's and my truck I drove the couple in was a '59 Chevy Apache. My clients were thrilled with the look of EVERYTHING! Thanks Historical Emporium!!

This is my second purchase by Me and one I got as a gift. The one Issue that cropped up was a Size in all three items, which was resolved prior to the exchange even making it to your store. I enjoy both the holster rigs that I now have. I have also embellished them both with my Badge duplicates I had made after retiring. Finding the Rivet/stud mounts in same color/size took the longest part of time. I truly appreciated the party who took the time when completing the return/exchange verification on the one miss sized issue. I am now looking forward to additional items yet to be Ordered.

Nice period shirt
This shirt is of good quality and just what I wanted for my gambler impression. Together with black suspenders, black arm bands, a string tie, and my black derby fit the holiday family photos.

Color
We ordered several pairs (50 or so) of these ivory boots. There were 15 or so pairs of these boots that were in a different shade of ivory. I was disappointed as we are a stage choir and our costumes are all supposed to match, including our shoes. You can see the difference in color on stage. (Editor's note: We try our best to have multiple sets of shoes match. Unfortunately, our supply chain has also been affected by the pandemic and has limited our flexibility for the next few months)

Nice materials, easy to put over a boot
I was happy to get this pair of beautiful, burgundy velvet spats! The fabric is luxurious, and the ribbon ties are dainty. My concern was whether I would have difficulty sliding them over my booties, but they were easy to get on and off. They stay in place and look elegant. Happy with this purchase!

Beautiful design, comfortable
I am pleased with the cut of this jacket, how well it fits me, and that it is lined. The sizing is accurate, as stated on the website; the jacket does run small. I am petite and the sleeve length was perfect for me, but it may be short for average and taller persons. One thing that was disappointing is the extremely tiny, thin, cord elastic button fasteners (each 1/4" loops). By proportion, the buttons are large (about 5/8" each), and I accidentally broke one of the loops trying to stretch it around a button. Fortunately, since I am a pretty experienced seamstress, I was able to open up the front seam and remove the tiny elastic bits, replacing all of them with my own new elastic bits that I machine-stitched on a ribbon, then hand-stitched in place.

Pockets in a Shirt?
The shirts came right away and the overall quality is very good. My only issue is with the pockets on the right chest. Your picture does not show pockets and a pocket does not belong on an 18th Century shirt. I would try to remove the pockets, but I feel sure the needle holes would show. I am a demonstrating 18th Century blacksmith, and I really like my shirts to look correct as to period.

Solid Product - Excellent
This helmet is cool and functional - wear it all the time. The detail and craftsmanship is the highest level of excellence. I was so very surprised on inspection at the over the top quality in the new world of sloppy made products.

Too big for a New Frontier
I bought this for a Colt New Frontier .22. It is quite large and will not hold it securely. If you have a 7/8 scale SAA (like a Single Six, Rough Rider or Frontier) you should look for a holster sized more appropriately for that model. For a full size .22 SAA, it should be fine. The workmanship was quite nice, though.
