Well built and nice looking cotton work shirt!
Back in the 80s I used to do a lot of Civil War reenactments and had several shirts similar to these work shirts that I was able to get from the sutlers we would buy uniforms from. I always loved the way they fit and looked but had not been able to find since them. I found these, and ordered one, just to see the quality, and how they fit. Once it arrived, I was amazed, and happy. They look great with a vest, whether I am playing music, or riding my mule! I now have one of almost every color!

I own a good half dozen of these shirts ...love the look and feel and they are very comfortable to wear. For no special occasion as I dress in this kind of shirt everyday! But then I know I was born in the wrong time anyway......

FITS LIKE A GLOVE!!! Or a well made puffy shirt
This is going to be a gift for Santa himself, AS HE LOVES THESE PUFFY SHIRTS when wearing his vest overtop of the work shirt. I believe I will be looking for a few more for next yera and the year after that.

Good quality. Top notch service.
I ordered 3 different shirts and vest/ pants. All great quality. Clothes run true to size *however* - I am barrel chested. My neck size is a 2X but I needed a 3X to fit my chest. This would not be an issue for most folks so just a note in case it does matter to you.

The shirt looks exactly like the photo. Nice fabric. I like the puffy sleeves. I have not washed it yet. I hope it does not shrink.

Plastic buttons are out of true period, but works.

Great quality & recommended
I bought both Trapper and Fundamental Work Shirts and my review/opinion for both is the same. Well made shirt. I expect it will last a very long time. Relatively thick cotton material, but comfortable and cool, not hot.
I bought size Xlarge and it fit better after washing. Minor shrinking after washing but it now fits perfectly. The shirt is meant to be puffy and large, and I am very glad I bought it.
Only complaint is the Trapper shirt collar is always wrinkled so I keep it unbuttoned which makes it look better and not obviously wrinkled. I could iron the collar but I am too lazy to do that.
Oh and shipping was very fast. I think I got the shirts in 2-3 days.

Great quality shirt! But sizing a bit off. I got size M based on my neck circumference and my regular shirt sizes and it came soooo large. My two size bigger husband fit in it:) So, it is his now. Fabric and workmanship are exceptional though.
Perfect for my costume. Looks great and I could not find it anywhere else. Washed well. Fits as described.
I'm very happy with everything I have purchased at Historical Emporium.
