The material quality and fit are amazing. I've gotten compliments on the look every time I've worn my vests from the Historical Emporium. I intend to add more vests to my wardrobe!

It is a perfect fit and well made. Very impressed. I will definitely buy more from this company

Didn't expect the reaction I got, co- workers wanted to know the source of my purchase.

I needed a green vest to match my shirts. This vest fits the bill, comfortable, durable, and fits well. Received compliments from the first time I wore it

GREAT FOR DRESSING UP YOUR ATTIRE.

I like the look, but I haven't worn it yet, I belong to an Old West Fast Draw Association. Will wear it when I compete.

Will be wearing to my grandson's wedding. Will be the most stylish grandpa there !!!

Needed a vest for Point Fermin Lighthouse event - this was perfect fit and construction. Replaced the buttons with US Lighthouse originals. A+ product and service form Historical Emporium.

Great for dressing up summer clothing!

This is the perfect everyday vest, I had to get the extra large and I’m glad I did. It fits me perfectly in the pecs and tapers nicely at the waist utilizing the strap in the back to tighten the look. XL fit best, I’m 5’11 broad shouldered at 220. Quality dense fabric gives this an authentic look of a Wild West/Victorian working vest.

Historical Emporium has a knack of having a the most unique line of fashionable cloths on the planet. The Abilene vest is one of them. A very well made vest and it looks great. It lends itself to bringing a little class to any function you attend. Personally, I prefer natural fibers with the same backing as the front, longer "tall" versions and front-peaks, and wish that these features be extended throughout many of their lines, but the straight cut work vest also has its place. I highly recommend this vest to anyone who wants to improve their appearance and reputation.

I have decided in my old age to wear vests every chance I get. I bought this one to have a navy blue vest. The quality is excellent. The fit is true to size. I have worn it twice now out into the world and have received many compliments. Highly recommend.

A perfect waistcoat for everyday wear, and also for wearing with a kilt. Nice tailoring, fits well, and is very comfortable. Not quite as stiff as the similar canvas vests (which soften with wearing), a bit lighter, and just a little more formal. Colours go well with many of the shirts available trough Historic Emporium. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

The item is lovely, I've been wearing it quite a lot in fact. The color of the item was a bit darker in Real Life than it is on the Picture but it doesn't matter much to me. I still love it. and I still love the quality this store gives

Great vest, but it's a bit hard to iron the old fashioned way. The pockets make it great for organizing all that crap in your pocket. Watch out for guys who are 44 or 46, as they could go L or XL. I got the tight one, but it helps my back.

Nice vest, well built, good fit. I have had lots of compliments, thanks

The vests are amazing great quality and fit. Compliments galore!

Nice fit, good looking, hope to order more items in future.

I originally purchased this vest as part of a Victorian outfit to wear at a special occasion, but I like it so much that it's become a regular part of my wardrobe.

i saw 5 years ago on the internet the historical emporium page, iwas really impressed,the clothing are very nice, very well made respecting theVictorian era.........ipersonally wear just the cotton vests, because iwear denim every day, but those vest are very well made, excellent cut .fabric and so on........even with denim those vests look totally togheter with jeans, cusual but elegant!!!!!i hope more man they will start to wear vests again like in the past...when the man's were elegant!!!!!!

Great quality.

I really like this vest! It is very well made and looks good. I will be ordering more vests from here because they have a very good selection.

No special occasion for this fine vest. I have many vests- this vest moved to the top of my favorite vest list. Love this vest!

I was looking for a straight bottom vest. I probably would have bought this all cotton beauty in sable, but my size was sold out. NO REGRETS! This is not only a soft, well-sized, extremely well-made NOT from China garment, it is really a complement to all my clothes, (most of which are HE products, due to their overall quality). Seriously, one of the best "side features", it is well-lined and just heavy enough not to wrinkle whether riding or sitting for long periods. Frankly, I'll bet any color will be a sound purchase for you, so don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. I did when I bought this Sand Mountain vest, because til now, I've been wearing a black goat hide, pointed front vest. My highest recommendation on this garment.

Excellent neutral color tone can wear both classy and casual. Well made. Plenty of functional pockets. Two thumbs up!

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of this vest. Excellent construction and fit. I love it !

this is the third vest I have tried to fit and again it is way to large in arm pits. fits around middle but arm hole poke out forward. looks weird..

I ordered this vest in Medium, which is long enough to wear with Victorian high waist trousers or modern blue jeans. This is a perfect compliment to wear with the Sable Frock Coat and Trousers, and it is dressy enough to wear with modern dark brown suit or laid-back in dark brown jeans and leather jacket. I love the extra pockets, which are deep enough to carry lots of useful items.

This was my first time ordering from Historical Emporium. I must say that I am greatly pleased. The quality of the vest far exceeded my expectations. Well-detailed, and it fits fine. I was also greatly impressed with the speed of delivery. I swear, I barely had it ordered, and it arrived. Thank you!

An excellent product, an excellent service.

Took a chance on this vest and am definitely satisfied. Very nice looking and well constructed. Thank you!

Liked the vest works well with my re-enactments. Good fit and good price.

Never before have I received so many compliments, it's amazing the difference a vest can make.

Well made, warm, comfortable, great value and always receives compliments when worn.

This Farnsworth vest is another amazing add to my new wardrobe. And the size is perfect. Thank you so much.

I am impressed with the quality of this vest. I was hoping that I’d get something that I would be able to touch up and use in a few weeks. But this baby arrived in perfect condition! No loose threads, no button holes that are too tight, no problems at all! The fabric makes it so versatile. I wear the vest without a jacket, and I wear it with a suit jacket. No matter how you wear it, it just looks classy!

Great vest for the price. Good fit and verry dapper looking.

Nice vest. Dressy and classy looking.

Excellent quality an fit 5 star

Excellent quality an fit 5 star

The vest was exactly what I was lookin for. Sizing is precisely what I was expecting. Quality appears to be above average and I expect several years of use from this new vest.

Looks very nice and fits well. I dress in a casual style at work with these style of vest: open, with white shirt, no tie, and black slacks. The only reason for not giving 5-stars would be because the back fastening strap/belt tends to come loose from its buckle and hang down. Easy to fix with a quick tack with threads. They are largely ornamental.

I needed this vest for a period-style vaudeville show. It can be difficult to judge how such a stylish vest will look on a large man, so I was a little bit apprehensive. But to my considerable relief it really looks quite good on me (at least my wife says so! And so did the show's director). The vest is made of sturdy, easy maintenance fabric and the subtle floral pattern keeps it understated without being lifeless. In other words, perfect for the stage. I received helpful notifications regarding the processing and shipping of the order and it arrived in a very timely manner. I'm definitely a satisfied customer and I'm sure I'll be back!

This vest was delivered in only a few days. It was exactly as described. It fit perfectly and made my outfit. I am greatly pleased and will order more. Great company to do business with.

Perfect fit and really good looking

Very nice vest. Super light material so you won't get hot. Very nice subtle design, which everybody complimented on! Very pleased

Just beautiful Love it

Western shoot competitions, great quality item, love the colour, perfect fit, very happy thanks, Richard.

Amazing looking Vest.... Color is very Vibrant. And the Service you all provide is just unbelievable....i ordered this on a Friday and got it on the following Monday. Really appreciate you all there.

Anniversary Pictures.

I ordered this and several other items for my daughter's upcoming wedding. The entire package arrived several days earlier than expected, and I was skeptical of the purchase, but once receiving all the items I realized the material quality was high the fit was perfect and the price was great. I could not have bought a suit for the same price. I am amazed at the outstanding customer service from historical Emporium. I even had to change my pants size day after I ordered and it was corrected and I received the proper fit.

I will continue to order thru your company. I appreciate the excellent quality and quick delivery times. Thank You

I ordered this green vest as a "Santa Vest". I didn't want one with snowflakes, snowmen, or reindeer. Ths one was perfect. Size was great, too.

My only wish is that it would have been in more historical materials rather than modern cloth.

That's the comments I've heard more than once. It is everything it is said to be.

Never been much into the color green but this vest is great looking. Fit perfect and would highly recommend.

great vest for my cosplay

The vest is good quality fits good

This vest fit like a glove! Depite some reviews claiming that the green color is much darker than pictured, I found it to be only slightly so. It looks great, and the quality is superb for this price range.

Kidding..... But it is Emerald Green..... Quality like you'd see from a Wedding Shop. I paired with the Emerald Isle Neck Tie as well and this looks amazing.

This vest was slightly darker than on-screen, but that wasn't a bad thing. The color is definitely an emerald tone and it is absolutely gorgeous! It is finely crafted and just what was needed! Beautiful! Very gentlemanly indeed!

Just love the old fashion design and look!

I will continue to shop here. High quality, distinctive garments at a reasonable price. Can’t go wrong.

It is everything and more. It is a beautiful vest and I will enjoy it for years.

My vest was the wrong size, because I was careless in my ordering. I was given some great information on how to return and exchange the vest for one that will be the proper size. I have not had one complaint for Historical Emporium and will continue to be a loyal customer!

By far one of the best vests I ever owned. I'll wear this to my grave.

This vest is just what my husband wanted to wear with his antique pocket watch. It is perfect.

Another brilliant vest. This makes four. I receive comments all the time as to how the vest looks real good.

Received on-time. Fit as expected. Awesome style.

I already had a red, blue, and green vest to compliment my Maroon, Navy Blue, and Forrest Green sport coats. I needed a white or cream vest to complete my collection, match my off-white sport coats, and the Spencer vest fit the bill! Couldn't be more please with my purchases from Gentlemen's Emporium.

Loved the detailing

Fit well. Looks fantastic.

Pocket are fantastic and the quality is top notch but it is a little tight around the stomach.

U sent a Reno vest not a spencer best. Didn't notice til the day before I needed it when I cut off The tag. The vest is a good vest just wrong one.

Love it! Very happy with Emporium!!! I only shop here for my Steampunk and Cos-Play Needs.

Excellent Quality, Price, Service. This will be awesome on my Wedding Day Photoshoot :D

Once again, great items and first rate customer service, coming through when my horrible local post failed me. I have bought from them before and will continue to do so again.

Great match with the Brewster frock jacket .... stepping back in time at monthly Virginia City activities ....

Already have the Brush Cotton Sack Coat so I knew the matching vest was going to be perfect, Good fit for me, I like the four pockets.

My husband loves his new vest. The brushed cotton is a very heavy quality material. The vest's short waist makes it very comfortable for daily wear.

I am very happy with my purchase. The vest was top-quality, looked great and I wore it as part of a Halloween western get-up. But I think I will be wearing it all the time now!

I ordered size XL since I wear 46R coat. The vest fits very nicely and looks real good. Quality is outstanding and the service, including packaging, was excellent. I'm very happy with the purchase.

This is my wedding outfit, period accurate because I am getting married in an 1870 Stage and Pony Express stop. Very excited.

Quality was fantastic and arrived very quickly. Exactly what I was looking for.

Of very high quality and enjoyed by most those who I've shown it to, bound to be a show stealer this Halloween!

Surprised at the heavy weight cotton, less akin to costume wear, more like every day work vest. Buttons are large and tight but will probably loosen up over time.

This vest was a birthday gift as I recently returned in-person to my office job. I’ve always loved dressing up for work, but this (incredibly comfortable and durable) vest has elevated my style game to an entirely new level!!! Everything it’s advertised to be and more!

These Livingston Brushed Vest are always a winner. My actor needed two(2)in Black. Vests were in stock and fit perfect. Thanks to the adjustment strap on back of vest. Always a great feature and so very helpful.

All of the items I have received have met or been above expectation. The only issue is this particular vest is too short for my frame. But I do like the style and quality of it! Respectfully, Nathaniel Branch

I ordered a vest, and I was EXTREMELY happy with the product I received. It was shipped VERY quickly, and it was very high quality. I would absolutely order again from them!

I'm a tall guy and a big guy , and have always had problems finding vests that I am comfortable in and that even look like they fit. They almost always feel to short in length and there is always too much space between the bottom of the vest and the waist of my pants . I bought this vest in the 3XT , and even though they were a special order and took a few days longer to get , when it arrived it fit PERFECTLY .

Excellent fit! Bought the whole suit. Had the trousers hemmed and cuffed by a local tailor, very happy with it all. coat and vest are perfect fits. Good material, wish it would be just a slight bit thicker but overall pleased. Finally a nice suit!

I bought this to wear on a cruise which sponsored a Roaring 20s evening. Fits great and looks good for the occasion.

Classic car event

After much searching I found the perfect vest here. Fits well and is very well made. I gave gotten several vests from other places, and that is not the case. I couldn't have asked for better than I got here. And I will definately order a couple more!

My second vest of this style (outgrew the first, it's still in good shape). Quality of everything I have bought from Historical Emporium is excellent. After ordering I learned I would need it earlier than expected and standard shipping might not work. I called customer service to see if I could upgrade to expedited shipping. Customer Service looked up my order and assured me it would arrive on time with standard shipping, in fact it arrived a day earlier than expected. They could have charged me the extra shipping fee and I would have never known the difference. It is so nice to do business with an honest company that offers great products.

Love this vest. It's been hard for me to find a vest that will fit. I'm 5'9" and wear a 2xlt shirt due to having a bit longer torso. I just wish it was available in more colors..I wear it to church and any occasion that calls for a more formal attire...

Wedding, great quality and the perfect flair of class!

excellent quality and frankly better than i expect given the price. I'll shop here again,

Made just a little big width. I will have to take it for alteration. It is a nice authentic vest for any occasion.

The lighter weight but woolen mix makes for a good semi-formal wear. Added a modern point collar shirt with a tie and collar clip for a routine bread and butter outfit. Cut and collar were perfect.

I tend to grit my teeth if I have to spend more than $50 for a vest, but I've got to admit it's very well made. Quality material and stitching. So much so, that after I received the double breasted herringbone vest, I was so impressed with it that I bought the single breasted herringbone vest as well.

Its pretty dark for being "gray". I do like the metallic buttons and the quality overall is very nice, but should be considering its 3x the $ of every other vest I looked at. Biggest complaint and very disappointed that the backing was a black linen material, fairly thick and heavy which made it very hot. All the pictures showed a light gray backing which was highly desired to match with the rest of the wedding attire. Unfortunate.

Exactly what I wanted and the craftsmanship and attention to detail is amazing! I actually ordered the wrong size (first time customer) so I sent it back for an exchange. The turn around on the exchange was lightning fast!

I love this vest! I provides a nice sense of dignity and elegance to my wardrobe and I'm pretty sure my IQ goes up when I wear it. It's comfortable, seems very well made. For example, even the back is substantial, unlike the chintzy material that so many use! Now I just need to find a quality pocket watch!

I bought this vest for everyday wear and find it to be tough, comfortable, great looking and an outstanding value. I love it and will be ordering more clothing in the future.

The canvas vest fits perfectly. Looks great on me. I love it!

I love the canvas material. Perfect for a vest. Fit is very good. I like the look and have had many compliments.

everyday where-how i dress

I wear it when I'm working in the warehouse and I want a good looking way to protect my shirt, looks great I like it.

I am 6'1" medium build. I ordered the XL Tall. Fits perfectly. Good that it has an adjustment buckle in the back as I am slim waisted and cinched it up so it has a nice tapered look. My vest was made in Guatemala, so I am good enough with that. USA would be better, but what are ya gonna do?

I've a wardrobe for my reenactments and speaking on my war between the states persona. After being invited to participate in a Wild West event I needed a few items to adjust the look. My other vests are coat and tie ones, I needed a working man's look, this is exactly what I wanted and needed. The event isn't until the end of October and I'll be submitting photos then.

This vest goes well with the gray trousers and gives me the look I wanted in the way of a slimlined look for myself. Thanks, Historical Emporium!

This is a sturdy well made garment. It is great for working around the property when a jacket is to much and a sweater is too delicate for the job at hand. Size seems to run a wee bit small, but may loosen up after some wear and a wash.

This worked beautifully to costume Bob Cratchit in A Christmas Carol.

The fit and look are fantastic. Well made, sturdy canvas with bronze metal buttons. Perfect for running errands as the days get cooler.

Using these clothings for holiday festivities for my 9th Great Grandfather built in 1696 in Massachusetts.

No occasion. I just saw it and wanted it. My first objective was a dress vest to wear at Christmas time to replace the one my mother made for me a hundred years ago, which I had outgrown. My son purchased it from you for my Christmas gift. In my search I came across this one and liked it.

My usual style is Western wear, but hard to find quality inTall sizes. When I checked some shirts offered by Historical Emporium, the ones I liked didn't come in a Tall size, so I emailed to complain.They said they do offer some in Tall, so I looked again and found this gem of a vest. Looks way better than the online photo!

Fits perfectly and is a showpiece.

Casual but business. Very appropriate, very satisfied.

Long range silhouette shooting

Great price in comparison to others. Love the look. Would recommend.

Vest looks great, fits perfectly. Purchased vest to wear under a jean jacket.

Sturdy and good-looking. I like a vest that doesn't cheap out on the back material.

VERY NICE! I VERY EXCITE!

Great looking vest. Fits just right. Price was good, quality is good, shipping time was outstanding.
