I've been buying a lot of clothes from Historical Emporium this year, so I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize for a mere 4-star Google review I gave it last summer. I had ordered a gunbelt from them that turned out to be difficult to keep buckled, and I suggested that some sort of diagram should have been included with the gunbelt to show people how to wear it. To my surprise, I heard from someone at Historical Emporium who suggested that the gunbelt might be defective, and who asked for a photo of the gunbelt. As it turned out, it was indeed defective, and was replaced at no charge. Otherwise, the clothes have been splendid, the shipping has been generally prompt, and the service has been sterling. Thank you very much.

Finding quality reenactment clothing for a gunfighter in West Texas is a easy task. I am happy to find Historic Emporium. My suspenders made by Scully is perfect. They came in a day early too. I will be back. Pecos Brad

coat arrived in a very timely manner. Material was better than expected, and what others had said held true...they do run big, especially the length. Overall, extremely pleased with it!

Leonard is very helpful. The items we ordered came and were good quality. The 2 items I needed to exchange for size came quickly and a refund was also given quickly. Definitely will order from this company again.

I ordered several items and ended up returning/exchanging a few of them due to sizing issues. I have never had such fast turnaround from any business ... ever! Historical Emporium will not disappoint you.

Perfectly Mary Poppins
I am SO EXCITED to wear my Mary Poppins outfit with parrot-head umbrella and carpet bag as well as the lovely hat that will be on my wig replete with bun! I'll definitely send a photo after all the pieces come together for Halloween.

Western bow tie black
Excellent replica of the 19th century tie so widely used. I wore this tie with the classic work vest and a white shirt, it looked gorgeous in my opinion, I look forward to buying again in the future.

Best looking hat I've ever bought
I bought this hat to to wear occasionally while not at work, but so far it's been the only hat I've worn. I have received many compliments on it and it's easy to forget I'm wearing it. Keeps the sun off and the light weight makes it very comfortable. I would definitely buy again

Superior Customer Service
Great shirt but more important to me was your customer service. I buy with you because there is not a problem with a return and there is a prompt refund or exchange. You always answer quickly to my questions. Your shipping is very fast! I just wish you had clothes from the 1600's. I am an actor and am looking for costumes from that era.

Earp stripe shirt
This shirt stuns into awe all who behold it, especially when worn with the Buffalo Flats vest. I think it's pretty dashing, myself, and am racking my brains thinking of an occasion worthy of it.

Lawman Stripe Shirt
I liked the look of this shirt--which I bought for everyday wear-- as much as I expected to from the picture. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how light it felt to wear. This will be especially good if I have to endure another hot New Jersey summer and still hope to remain well-dressed. The shirt does run a little long.

Too small
Such a waste of time and especially money. Didn't read the fine print about returns and extra costs for hat boxes because of their size.... Unbelievable. The return shipping cost $37.15 for a $75.00 hat. Never again. Won't be shopping with you any longer.

Plaid Vest is the best!

Clothing, no costume, quality
As a member of an English Country Dance group, I bought these pants seeking a lighter alternative to wool. The quality of the pants and the exceptional customer service from Historical Emporium took me by surprise. Despite needing a few exchanges/returns for several items I ordered, the turnaround time was unbelievably fast. Truly outstanding service!

Super Good
These pants fit very well and look great. I am especially impressed with the quality of these. I also like the manufacturer did not put their maker tag on the outside of the garment. The waist size I ordered is 38, although I normally wear 35-36. Packaging and service were excellent.

The Gun Belt is perfect. Beautiful workmanship and quality. My Ruger Wrangler fits perfectly in the holster. The only thing I would do different is order the next size up. I love it, no complaints on the belt or holster at all. Will be ordering again as soon as I get my Blackhawk 357mag.

Victorian Ruffled Blouse
I went to a birthday party and wore a black notch-collared vest and satin, pencil-legged pants. I thought that the Victorian-styled blouse with ruffles at chest and ruffled sleeves would complement the ensemble nicely giving it a vintage and classy look. It did! The item was affordable, arrived right on time, was a comfortable fit and exceeded my expectations.

I was recovering from an injury and really wanted a new cape to look forward to wearing when I got better. This cape is amazing and very well made. It's high gloss satin and feels luxurious. I'm looking forward to buying the wool one as well, it's a vibe, ya'll!

Sizing too large and buttons too small
This looks rather nice (but material not so great). The buttons on it are really small. It's really long as well and I will have to get it altered or I'll be falling on my face!

Looks nice but attachment not easy
The pin which you attach this to your blouse is flimsy and will easily bend and cause the jabot to fall off once you've used it a few times. I can't even get the pin through my blouse (because it can't go through the buttonhole as that's in the wrong place). I'm going to have to find something to quickly attach it to my blouse.

Sits well but material??
The underskirt, once again, was made of material that really has me wondering. It's like a nylon that I think will have me sweating in the coming months. I've given it a 4 star but I'm not 100% sure on that yet
Sharon Armstrong

Terrible material
So disappointed with these, I very well may send them back. The only thing stopping me is the postage back to the US. The material is so thin, it looks like it will rip the first time it's worn. It's a poor substitute for the Victorian Riding Skirt we used to have. In fact, it seems since COVID, they are having trouble with all their levels of stock. We can barely find the items we used to always buy and gave ***** reviews to. In fact, I had to source material from the US and am getting a coat made here like the one I used to be able to buy.

Just Right
We ordered this, and a vest, for a Halloween Costume. The Tailcoat was in NC from CA, within 3 days, and the Vest, which was special order was here ahead of schedule. I needed support for figuring out sizing, as my husband didn't exactly fit the sizing guide. Both items fit perfectly. I was very pleased and will probably order again in the future.
