Consider this a great value. It is a quality piece.

Very proud of this vest: light fabric easy to wear and to move in it, it is short to match with high-waisted trousers of the period

Everything else in my order was too shelf. This vest is VERY cheaply made. Super thin fabric. Overall very low quality and not worth the purchase. It is pretty though. More of a disappointment really since everything else in my order was such a pleasure.

The vest fit exactly to my fiance's measurements and it looks very sharp, is lightweight, and pairs perfectly with the tailcoat we ordered. Very pleased with this item!

Sorry to report that I returned the vest. The workmanship and quality of the vest was great, however the size of vest was not even close to normal size. I consistently wear a medium in shirts, jackets, etc. Your vest was so small there was no way it would button and was at least 2 inches short in length. I ordered the vest for a wedding and did not have enough time to place a second order. Anyway thanks for the opportunity to return.

The vest looked great! I thought the size was way small for a XXL.

I recently purchased a different vest, size XL and found it snug. I wanted lots of room to breath and so purchased the 2XT vest. This vest is VERY roomy and I like that effect. The colour looks great with my previously purchased red and black puff ties. A tip for others: if you have the option on the vest, order the tall. It's long enough for modern waist pants.

Size Small is really a medium and needs to be taken in about 3 inches. Otherwise, well constructed.

When I've worn this vest with a black coat and bow tie, more than one person (complete strangers) has suggested that I might be well off financially. That's how classy this vest is! The fact that it's made in the U.S.A. and of fine quality only adds to the overall satisfaction of this purchase. That it's a "period" vest even down to the buttons, creates a unique style when worn with or without a jacket.

Gread addition to the collection!
All of the vests I have are all darker colors which didn't look quite right with the jacked I recently purchased from Historical Emporium but this one was perfect! This is the sixth vest I've ordered and every one has been fantastic!

I love to watch the television show Downton Abby, I look to the characters on the show for ideas on outfits of that particular time. The Baker City vest is an elegant and proper looking piece of attire, a must have for any gentleman's ensemble.

Excellent gentlemanly attire. Purchased a size Small for a snug, fitted fit and IT FITS PERFECTLY & comfortably (my frame 38-40 chest, 32 waist).
Gorgeous finishes and silk fabric, excellent brocade pattern. Perfect length (short, appropriate enough for a cut off tailcoat).
