The vest looks great, of course. It's a bit tight around the middle; I had trouble buttoning it when I wore period high-waisted pants with it, but with modern pants it fit just fine. The fabric-covered buttons are hard to handle, though; I may replace them with metal buttons.

I love this vest. the fit is perfect, great colors. Highly recommend. Upon arrival the vest smelled like fish and to be taken to the dry cleaner. An added expense before getting to enjoy the product.
Editor's note: We apologize for the issue with the vest and have inspected all of the remaining vests so that this problem will not re-occur.

This vest was a birthday gift for my husband -it fits well and is a very rich color with nice pattern. Fast shipping too.
The vest I bought was a pleasant surprise. High quality materials, exactly as it looked and was described on the website. The sizing chart was accurate and the vest fit perfectly. I wore it in my wedding and received many complements on it.

Had to return it as it was too small. Asked to have it replaced for a lager size. Jury is out.

My son's entire wedding party dressed in the Klondike Vest. The vest fits nicely, is a beautiful brocade in deep brown, and is a lightweight fabric for comfort on the dance floor.
If any of your groomsmen are taller than 5'8" I recommend getting the large tall for a picture perfect fit.
The vests arrived less than a week after I ordered them and were shipped in a sturdy box, wrapped in cellophane and on a hanger.
Thanks, Historical Emporium for making our wedding a perfect day.

This is a sharp modern-yet-historical vest. My son's groomsmen will wear it in his wedding. The brown is a beautiful shade. The Paisley is classy. He is 6-foot tall so we ordered the large tall and it fit perfectly. Great price, too!

Klondike Vest for My Wedding!
I recently purchased the Brown Klondike Vest for use in my upcoming wedding, and I must say, my bride-to-be and I love it! The detail is fantastic, the color is rich, and it fits wonderfully. I would recommend this vest and the Historical Emporium to anyone looking to find something unique and classy to strut about town in!

This was an excellent vest. Great quality. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because the back panel was plain black material and not the same as the front. Other than that, this was a great vest.
