Cotton so it will shrink. Great fit after that and an elegant look finished with a colorful vest/waist coat.

			Just the sort of ruggedly elegant menace I was looking for in a black shirt.

			Not that it's a bad thing, but the cotton of this shirt is lighter than some of HE's other shirts, similar to the club collar shirt. It's still good quality and it's nice to have a lighter weight for hotter days or more layers. Just a good thing to know. The steel top button is cool.

			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.

			I have been looking to upgrade some of my Steampunk gear. I've done it piece-by-piece and one of the last ones were black shirts. Now that I have these, I think what I have for this character is pretty good. I still need to accessorize more, but this means my basic gear and garments are set.

			Want to feel like a fancy Victorian man of status. Then this is the shirt for you, especially when accompanied by a puff tie or ribbon tie you can feel confident you'll look amazing!

			I'm sensitive to fabric textures, and this shirt (stolen from husband and altered) is my go-to. It's a lovely high quality, has stood up to 6 years of washes so far with very little fading and no pilling at all.
		
		
		
 
   
 
 
		
		
		
			I have three of these in White and decided to get one in Black!  No Disappointment!  Add a Puff Tie or Ascot (I have several) in a bright color.  Never disappointed with the Emporium Stores!

			I love this shirt!  Pricey but I'm glad that I purchased it.  The quality is excellent.  I received it promptly.  I have bought from Historical Emporium in the past and will do so again.  Check out their Homberg Hats.

			This shirt is great, versatile and comfortable. There is but one very minor issue with this shirt, from my standpoint anyway, cannot wear cufflinks with this shirt. It fits well and looks good in all respects. I would easily recommend this shirt to others.

			I purchased the Victorian Men's Dress Shirt with the High Stand Collar in black for my steampunk Halloween costume.  I paired it with the Crimson Commander's Vest for a factory forman/ engineer look.  Following the sizing guide I was a bit nervous of the fit, being a Plus-sized gentleman.  I was quite surprised to find the product properly enveloped me.  For once I have an awesome costume that isn't being unduely stretched by my figure.
Will Buy Again.
