This is a well-made, handsome jacket. I bought it for my son as a gift. Unfortunately, the sleeves are way too short for a 40L size.

I bought it for the stage. I'm using it on ZOOM
It's comfy, fits great and the texture is a little bit hypnotic under my fingertips. After I smoke. What more could one ask from a smoking jacket?

A Jacket for Any Time or Place
I always enjoy browsing the Historic Emporium, for fun and for when I decide to visit some other time. This time, however, this is purely a contemporary journey. Everyone is stuck at home- I am stuck at home AND overweight. It it occurred to me if I had to go to a wedding or funeral I would have nothing to wear- or at least nothing that fits.
Years ago I bought my last coat at a department store- it was a velvet coat and looked a bit of what Jon Pertwee wore as the 3rd Doctor. I still have it, and intend to wear it again someday when I uh, shrink myself. It is not a period costume and I wore it occasionally for occasions that required that I dress up a bit.
Well, back to being stuck at home- with little to do during the year of COVID. I saw that the Emporium had a LOT of velvet coats- some of which would still be contemporary, so I bought one online. I received it, tried it on and it is everything I wanted. Being a product of a costume company, I am not sure if it is as rugged as a store bought jacket, but it seems be as sturdy as anything I have ever owned.
This jacket will look good as any dress up occasions I may go to- if I ever get to go anywhere fun ever again- and as a bonus I could even attend a Doctor Who Convention and not look out of place.
And if I ever get the Time Machine working- oh never mind. Very nice coat though. Very happy with it as it makes even me look good.

I have worn this sport coat several times. It fits very well and is the more modern slimmer fit through the arms and is very comfortable. The coat is well made and makes a good appearance. It's too good for wearing while smoking cigars: I'd hate to burn a hole in it!

This is a great jacket. Excellent quality for the price. Will probably be picking up a second one.

Ordered this jacket in size 42L as a gift for my son. He weighs 190 lbs, and stands 6ft 2in. The jacket fit perfectly. The quality and cut of the jacket are exceptional in every way. My son says he has never felt more "dashing." He intends to wear it at home, and also when he goes out.

Much higher quality than expected. Was originally going to use this as an actual smoking Jaker at home but it is of such high quality that I wear it out quite a bit.
Glad to have this item,for either indoors or outdoors

Heavier weight. Fine construction. Worth much more than I paid. A funny thing happened, though. I instantly grew a pencil-thin moustache when I opened the box. Strange.

My order arrived quickly and I was greatly impressed by the quality of the jacket, stunning! I hope they soon become available in the same cut in more colors because this jacket in burgundy would be beautiful. Just putting a bug inn someone's ear...hint hint. ;-)
Great! Exactly what I was looking for to wear for the Holidays. The quality of the garment is exceptional.

This is the nicest jacket I that I have ever bought. It is well worth the money. It looks wonderful and the velvet is has a great feel to it. The fit could not be better. It is very true to size. If you want to look very dapper in a smoking jacket, then this is the one for you. I would recommend this jacket and Historical Emporium to anyone.
