Since I was going to be in town it made sense to just stop in and pick up this order. I was met at the door and warmly welcomed. Nice visit.

This is truly a specialty service. I'm glad they are in business. I know it's a hobby (why I need them), but hobbies keep us sane in this crazy world! (the luxuries of a first world country I guess...Thank you Jesus!)

Great Cold Weather Wrap
I bought this cape for my wife - yeah, I know its a man's cape But, it makes for a great cold weather outer garment for her to snuggle up in when out in chilly/cold weather. The size is just right for her to fully wrap herself up comfortably while sitting watching events.

Another Nice Addition
I added this Black Drake Vest to round out my collection of Red and Blue Drake Vests. As I stated in my River Trail Vest - Blue review, this rounds out my collection and allows for selecting the best for any occasion.

I love it! It is just as I expected, and received in a timely fashion.
It's for a movie I am filming during the first week of August.

herringbone sack coat
I'm happy with the coat. It is cut too slim around the belly and unfortunately there is not enough cloth left to expand. We're not talking big belly, but I haven't had that hourglass figure since I was 18. I removed the shoulder pads. I appreciated the incredible hulk look, but it was not appropriate. Small changes would make it a perfect product.

Fine for purpose
I wanted a scarf ring I could use with the few cotton squares I have so I could make a neckerchief with them. I live in the UK, so I bought this with another order to avoid paying too much in shipping just for this. Got it with my order in around 2 weeks from ordering it. It feels good quality for the price. I have tried it once with a dark blue cotton square neckerchief and it worked find for that and stayed in place once the neckerchief was made up.

Great quality, rough material
I am interested in authentic old west clothing, so earlier this year I bought a black and a Burgundy Longview Bib Shirt. I live in the UK and was able to find them for sale within the UK. I am 5ft 7 with 38 inch chest and 15 inch collar size and the small in this shirt fitted me perfectly in the collar. These shirts feel a little heavy, feel well made and look great for an authentic old west look, I wanted to see if I could get more of them in the different colours they come in but was unable to find anymore at the time that were for sale within the UK other than the colours I had. I searched online and found Historical Emporium. I had a look at the Longview Bib shirts they had and when I saw the Denim Stripe, I thought this looked different. I looked at the size guide and it says the small fits between a 14-14.5 inch collar, so I didn't know if this would be the same size as the two small size bib shirts I have as they fit me perfectly in the collar and where I bought those, the size guide from where I bought them, said they were a 16 inch collar. I ordered the small anyway, hoping it would be the same fit. I had to pay more for shipping but I was fine with that. I was estimated 3-4 weeks from ordering to get it as it says this is a special order and would take two weeks then another two weeks for shipping. I got it in around 2 weeks after ordering it which was much faster than the estimate I was given. When I got it, I saw it was the same small size as the black and burgundy Longview Bib shirts I have and trying it on, it fitted me exactly the same and I could fit two fingers down the front of the collar so it wasn't too small or too large. These bib shirts are from Frontier Classics and I wish they would say the exact measurements their clothing is, but they don't. This probably explains the differences I read in the collar size. Like the black and burgundy Longview Bib shirts I have, this Denim Stripe shirt feels well made. However, due to the vertical denim strips and the shirt being unlined, it feels rougher than the other two shirts I have and as I have sensitive skin, I don't like that rough feeling, so when I am going to wear this shirt, I am going to wear it with an undershirt so I don't feel the rough material directly on my skin, which I would recommend if you decided to get one of these shirts.

Well made, too tight in the arms for me
For a while I have been looking for a coat or jacket I could wear with my Frontier Classics old west shirts, vests and trousers for an authentic old west look. I wanted one that was dark brown to suit the brown vest, brown bow ties, brown trousers and brown cowboy hat I have. I also wanted a coat or jacket I could wash as I am not easily able to get clothes dry cleaned where I live so this coat being cotton canvas seemed perfect. I bought one of these in small. I am 5ft 7 with a 15 inch collar and 38 inch chest and the Frontier Classics shirts I have are small size and the collar on them fits me perfectly despite Historical Emporium size guide saying they fit 14-14.5 inches, so I thought the small might be the same in fit. I live in the UK so had to pay extra for shipping, which I didn't mind as I couldn't find a coat like this in the UK. It took about 2 weeks form ordering it to get it which was good When I tried it on, it fitted me well in the chest and collar when buttoned up and tits length was good too. However, I found the upper arm area of and shoulders just a bit too tight for me, especially when I moved my arms. I enquired about that and was advised I could send it back for a return or an exchange for a medium or order a medium and check the fit of it and send back the one that didn't fit. I ordered the medium size and in about 2 weeks I got it. When I tried it on, I found the arms had the right width for me and were not tight like the small size, but the chest and collar were too big and when I buttoned it up, it bunched up at the back so I had to return both. That is unfortunate as I like the look and quality of this coat, just not the fit in the arms in the small size. If the arm width was just a bit wider, the small size would have been a perfect for me.

I've gotten a lot of compliments!
I was looking for a Zorro-type hat to wear when I attend performances of my play that features Zorro. Earlier I had bought some costume hats, one size fits all, but I have a big head and they don't fit comfortably. Based on other comments, I chose XL for my head, which measures slightly over 23". The hat fits perfectly! It's also more affordable than the Cordovan hats I found elsewhere.

Pantaloons!
I frequently wear long dresses and these are perfect for those occasions. I am particularly looking forward to wearing this in the winter time, or maybe a safe feeling on windy days!

If you're going to stand out, do it boldly!
We raise our family of 7 kiddos to be modestly-attired and they enjoy doing so. This has made swimming a bit strange since they've previously had to wear shorts and a shirt, but with the Ladies 1900 Bathing Suit from Historical Emporium, they can be properly modest in what is technically a genuine bathing suit. The culture has gone so far downhill that, ironically, this bathing suit could almost be worn to church and still be more modest than the things some people wear. That said, it's crazy to think that the 99% naked people at the local pool or at the beach would point at the "weirdos" wearing this fantastic Historical Emporium bathing suit. Although we normally use a private family pool, we would gladly take this on a trip and use it at the seashore. We would stand out no matter what, so we're happy to do it boldly with the outfits H.E. has to offer!!!

Next best thing to a belt
Since the pants don't have belt loops, these were just what was needed.

Nice material, good lines.
I joined Cowboy Fast Draw, and my moniker is Detroit Dago. I needed the colors of Italy and something flashy. This fit the bill very nicely with a green paisley shirt and white cowboy hat! Having the proper outfit kept me from going to events (you need to dress in theme to participate) ...move over cowboys, The Detroit Dago is in town!
