I just returned from Tombstones "Helldorado Days" where I wanted to get my photo taken with the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday. I had wonderful black Frontier Classics trousers, red apache scarf, grey tweed vest and white banded collar shirt. I ended up hating the shirt. It made me feel like I was choking. I bought the Sinclair Edwardian shirts in all the colors available and LOVE them. With the proper ties I can leave the collar unbuttoned, breathe and still look good.

Very good product and professional services.

The shirt is excellent and fits so well. I like the quality and it feels good to wear. Very nice shirt, keep up the quality!

The shirt has a generous cut and is tailored beautifully. This shop is superior in offerings and in customer service. Well Done

I most recently had the opportunity to attend a “Black Tie Chic” event. I did not want to purchase an entire tuxedo- what do to? I turned to the myriad of shirts at Historical Emporium to put together a “look”. To include the Tuxedo-look of the Sinclair Edwardian Club Collar Shirt and Gold Vest. Well let me tell you I looked sensational- some folks came up to me and said I looked dapper. I was worried about size but the shirt xxl fit fine- great cotton feel. I did have a bit of a problem with the vest - which I will comment later. Bottom line - I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you.

Ordered the Sinclair Edwardian Club Collar Shirt - Black in 2x as per sizing instructions, it was a perfect fit, looks awesome. Recently wore it with the Emerald Isle Vest and Emerald Isle Puff Tie, was told it looked "Very dapper"

Beautiful shirt with detail. Fits true to size.

Old time clothes are classy. People nowadays don't know how to dress. Thanks to Historical Emporium, I can achieve the look I desire. Either modern-day or historically.

The shirt was supposed to be and feel midiam. But it felt large. Didn't fit me right.

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 paid for fast delivery and it was on my door step the next day! Tried it on the actor yesterday and he was very happy to have a proper shirt to wear for the show!!!! Thank you for making life a lot easier for me!

I like Frontier Classics shirts except that the sleeves are usually too short for me. I’m over 6’ 2” with longer than average arms and legs. The fact that Historical Emporium stocks extra long, or ‘Tall’, versions of the shirts is perfect. I haven’t found them anywhere else (which is why I bought the shirt from them rather than from a supplier in the UK). I wish the long versions of Frontier Classics shirts were more widely available because this one I’ve bought is very good.

I enjoy this shirt. looks good with costumes, washes well and fits well.

I do period recreations and Steampunk cosplay. I needed a shirt for a new cosplay not to dissimilar to the office outfits worn on The Gilded Age on HBO Max. This shirt is very close to what I was looking for and the price was not bad. It matched the frock and waist coat I got for the cosplay very well. Understand in period, many white shirts were off white and not stark white. I love the texture and color difference. If you are looking for a more casual Late Victorian/Edwardian shirt, this will do the trick.

One of my favorite shirts. Fits perfectly, and looks great. Good quality, and great for those who want that true western 1800's look. It also looks great with my antique 1879 A.W. Co. Waltham with key pocket watch. Would recommend!

Online comments said the shirt fits on the large size so I went with the fit chart and bought a medium instead of the usual large and it fits perfect. Plenty of shoulder room and arm length is exact. Beautifully made. Shipping was really fast to Canada.

Very good quality, nice and breezy and handy for summer. And the collar style makes it versatile, so you're paying for two different shirts in one. It's quite baggy around the stomach but a waistcoat takes care of that. I ordered 2XL and it fits me perfectly, which is pretty good for something I bought online. With the collars starched up, I think it probably looks best with a deluxe western-style bowtie or a cravat.

For a 2xl I found the neck to be quite small, but still satisfactory.

This shirt fit well, was a basic style that covers many eras, the cost was right, the sleeves and cuffs were decent. I may get another as a spare. If you are tall, as I am, make sure you note that somewhere on the form. I did, and was rewarded with the longer fit at the waist...

This shirt has a small round collar, a pleated bib front and is made with some room in the shoulders, arms and back. It is beautiful, appropriate for formal and informal occasions and is very comfortable to wear. It is 100% cotton and is machine washable! No dry cleaning necessary! You can wear this shirt with a pair of jeans and look great! It is truly a classic! Thank you for your excellent products and fabulous quality!

Well made shirt perfect for all occasions!

I am very pleased with my shirt. It looks great and fits perfectly. My wife and I were very impressed, and a bit surprised, at how quickly it was shipped.

Great fit. It works with my different period outfits.

Great shirt perfect fit!!

It fit me great. I have a pretty thick neck (17.5" ish) and found no discomfort.

Excellent style for the era but quality of fabric is thin and could of been better. Happy with it otherwise

The shirt was as described. It was of much higher quality than I expected. There is so much fraud on the Internet. This was a great find.

like very much this shirt very pleasant to wear and the collarpositionable alternately in the victorian or edwardian style suits me very well.

The Sinclair Edwardian shirt is perfect! Beautifully made and very comfortable and fits.

I wanted to get a comfy yet slightly stylish shirt for a Steampunk convention and this one is perfect. I live in a hot climate and tend to get overheated easily. This shirt did a good job of keeping me comfortable. It's loose but not so billowy that it looks like a pirate shirt. The collar is just right for a casual look or a slightly dressier look when paired with a vest and tie - which is what I wanted. It's held-up really well in the washing machine. No loss of shape. Great shirt!

This shirt makes me look more like a Victorian gentleman, especially when I have the collar stand up. Its a good addition to my wardrobe and I always feel like a Victorian gentleman when I put it on.

Nice sturdy shirt, that is comfortable to wear. Size does run big but I do like my shirts to be roomy.

Pros- Well made garment. Made from quality fabric. Fast Delivery Cons- Wish it came in a TALL. The Natural color is yellow not ivory or off white. Hope you can add the shirt in an ivory or off white color.

The shirt fit well and it's made of very strong sturdy material

I love this shirt. The material and cut make it good for dressy occasions, but it isn't overly formal and great for everyday wear, especially with a four-in-hand or bow tie. Like many of your products, it's a staple of my daily wardrobe. Now my eye is on either the white or blue one for summer.

The shirt was high quality, sized correctly and beautifully finished. Overall, I was very pleased with the item!

Noel recommended the Virgil Shirt to go with the double breasted vest to add versatility to the outfit. The shirt can be worn with the collar up or down for different looks. It fits perfectly. The quality is wonderful, the customer service was 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend any products from Historical Emporium.

What can be said about the functional simplicity of a white button up shirt, especially for period-accurate costumes? The shirt is high quality, the fit is nice as long as you take the time to take your measurements and order the appropriate size, and what was perhaps the most surprising aspect of this shirt: it's extremely comfortable. The shirt is 100% cotton and feels very, VERY, nice on the skin and is very breathable. Pairs well with sleeve garters and bowties as well. Overall, great!

This is a very well crafted shirt that certainly looks time appropriate. It also wrinkles as though it is. The tailoring is excellent and the size fits true to size.

The clothing that I ordered are for a Hickory Golf Outing. I also do reenactments / rendezvous, 1800-1850. Everything that I ordered looks good and fits good.

Excellent shirt. Would be better if sold in 1 or 2 neck sizes bigger.

Quality of shirt was very nice. Chest and arm fit was good but I to go to next size larger to get right size in neck. Easy process to exchange shirt.

I have bought Virgil Shirts in the past because they do have a left breast pocket and the overall look is very 1880's. It is big enough to wear as a night shirt as well. I had to unload previous shirts and trousers after I lost 200 pound since my last order three years back.

This shirt fits well and looks great. Excellent quality and easy to clean.

I am always wary of ordering clothes by mail or from the internet, but I needed a Victorian/Edwardian club-collared short, so I took a chance when I stumbled across The Gentleman's Emporium. To say the least, I'm glad I did.The shirt (of very high quality) fits perfectly (which isn't all that common as I lift weights four day/week). So why the "two perfect fits" title? Given this initial experience with the company, I'd say The Gentleman's Emporium is going to be an equally perfect fit for me. (Expect more orders.)

Looked on many other sites for rounded collars and had little luck. Gentlemen's Emporium had a great selection and the sizing recommendations were accurate. It's a great shirt.

Bought this shirt for a child's pioneer themed birthday party. I was very satisfied with the quality of the shirt. The fabric and metal buttons give it an authentic feel. Shirt is to size so buy it in whatever shirt size you wear.

This shirt is of excellent quality and is exactly as advertised. Love it and will wear it during my cowboy shoots.

The tag on this pull-over shirt calls it a Shiloh. sounds so historical! Heavier-than-usual cotton weave feels comfortable with a tee-shirt or tank top under it. This shirt can take a beating in any reenacting situation. Classic 19th century design fits right in with CAS situations. Add a western tie and vest for those times when a cowboy wants to spruce up a might. I wear a lamb skin leather waistcoat with it. Not so much historical 19th century western as common in the old western TV shows from the 50's & 60's. This shirt can also be seen in those old western shows and movies. It's a tough, yet good looking design that belongs in your cowboy wardrobe.

great shirt

I love my Coulter Shirt. Its authentic looks and confort are a smashing addition to my old west cowboy git up. I look like I stepped out from 1880!

Authentic looking period shirt!!

I bought this shirt in natural and tan stripe, and the look of both is superb. I actually preferred this striped one in appearance. However, the fabric was different from the natural. I found it too course, as i have sensitive skin. So, I sent in back, no big deal. But I think a washing and a wearer who prefers a tougher fabric will love this. The natural, on the other hand... that was a keeper.

I really like the shirt. My only complaint is that it is not permanent press. It is otherwise very attractive and well made.

trés belle chemise qui correspond parfaitement à la description. trés agréable à porter dans un esprit old west. taille grand. prendre plutôt une taille en dessous. je recommande +++ ce site. trés professionnel. envoie rapide. malheureusement taxe ++ à la douane.

I bought this intending to use it as part of my intrepid explorer steampunk costume, but it's so comfortable and such a great fit I've worn it to work several times. Moral: don't limit your thinking. I suspect many Emporium products can be worn on 'non-costume' occasions.

excellent quality and perfect fit

Ordered this shirt. Wore it to a function with a vest and bow tie. I seriously can't see why I would ever wear another shirt. It is comfortable, stylish, and of a quality I seriously never expected. After I wore it I actually sat down and inspected it.....every stich, button and seam. I just couldn't believe I finally found THE shirt, but alas, it was true. I found it. FANTASTIC quality. I will be ordering many more and donating most of what I own (shirtwise). If you are even THINKING of ordering, trust me...just do it. You will thank me later. As for Bowties, the "kicked back" collar melds with them perfectly. Thank you so much for my shirt. Please think about doing an Olive stripe....(favorite color). Kevin

Great shirt. Comfortable, well made, very nice shirt.

Well made.

This is a casual shirt with a simplistic, frontier style that I like a lot. The color was lighter than I expected - but this is good because I find I can wear it with all of the vests and dungarees of different colors that I have. The fit of this shirt is loose and comfy. The back stitching has a great, subtle, frontier look. Perhaps this shirt can be made in the color black? I think the style of this shirt plus the color black would give it a very dramatic look.

Very comfortable and well sized.

Shirt seems to be well constructed and fabric is quite lightweight, great for summer. It is too big however. Ordered a Large for my neck size, which is a 16, and I can fit my hand into the collar. I sadly threw away the tags and packaging before I could really try it on with the vest I bought previously, so unreturnable. It's a good shirt, nice metal buttons, but if you buy one, size down!

Fits perfect and very comfortable.

The design is fine, but the material is thin and it pills. Costly for the quality.

This is comfortable and looks great! It didn't shrink when machine washed and feels great to wear. I think the sizing is perfect.

Great shirt. Runs large, though.

The size large (my usual size) was too big. The sleeve s were too long. Reordered a medium and it was just right. Thanks for the prompt shipping.

The shirt is very nice , The only problem is it runs Large. My husband usually wears a Large and sometimes a XL so I ordered a Large and it was huge had to send it back for a medium. Received the second one with in a week of sending it back.

I believe smaller mother of pearl buttons would have been more authentic.

Coulter shirt in natural color is excellent quality for the price. Will definitely be using this company again. Shirt is slightly roomier than expected, but is more historically accurate in that regard. Natural color is not too dark. Sort of an off-white linen color. Better than I was expecting. If you want a more fitted shirt, try ordering a size under what you usually need. I wear a medium in most shirts, but suspect that a small would still fit, even in the collar, for a more fitted appearance. Overall great shopping experience

Ordered on 30th of May from the UNITED KINGDOM,Arrived at my door 11th June,very impressed, I've been looking for this style of shirt here in U.K. but have not had much success I.e. Seen plenty with the white collar but sleeve cuffs have been same colour as the rest of the garment,nice feel to the material and all round good fit for me,perhaps cuffs could be made to accommodate cufflinks but in no way is this a criticism,Five Stars all the way from me as far as I'm concerned.Thank you.

After my initial purchase from historical Emporium for my steampunk ensemble, I realized that these were fine quality shirts to be wearing every day. The style is very authentic, late 1800's, and the fit and quality are superb. I highly recommend their shirts and trousers for everyday wear; it's a good look for me, and can be for you too.

excellent fitted perfectly

Great shirt - well made and true to size. Very satisfied

excellent shirt-- took the collar off to make it a banded collar---more colors like burgundy and white would be great

Good to go. I will definetly buy again. Good job. Adios

Excellent, I will shop again without hesitation.

This is a very professional-looking dress shirt. The white cuffs and collars give it a touch of elegance. Definitely wear it with a vest, but this shirt looks good both with and without a tie.

This shirt looks great, very comfortable.

Great shirt everything is very nice and goes with tie and tie tack and very fast shipping

The shirts that I purchased appear to be pretty good quality. They were shipped in a timely fashion, were well packaged and arrived in good shape. I like the style very much and they are very comfortable. I purchased them to wear at team ropings. I needed a long sleeved, shirt with a collar and the buttons on these shirts are only down the top portion of the shirt. I am hopeful that this will eliminate my problem with rubbing buttons off on the saddle horn.

Why isn't the color of the stripes through to the back side of the shirt? It makes me worry that the color will fade quickly

This shirt is a sharp one, and it looks good with anything I wear it with. However, as other reviewers have noted, the stripes are darker and bolder in person than they are depicted on the site. That isn't a problem that warrants sending it back with a stern letter (because it's a great shirt), but it would be nice to have photos depicting such products in natural light to see an accurate picture. No matter, though; I like it lots, and have my eye on the tan stripe one next...

I m a German customer and I had been very happy to find this shop. They have so many interesting things like this wonderfull shirt, also in my size in 3XL. The whole handling had been very easy and save, the shipping much faster than I expected. Because I m an acive CAS-shooter and member of the " Mannheimer Western Shooter ", we want to take this shop at our lokal homepage. See you again, thank you!!

I wore this shirt to church on Easter Sunday with a vest and modern tie. Club collar shirts have such a great classic look. I have photos of ancestors wearing these kinds of shirts, so I was glad to join the club (pun intended). Note that the navy stripes are a very dark shade and almost look black in some lights. The stripes are also slightly wider than stripes on similar modern shirts, not that it mattered for my purposes.

I ordered this shirt as a first trial of the Historical Emporium's service. This first purchase took a while to arrive, but it was within the suggested length of time for delivery. It fits perfectly and I really like the colour. As a result of this first order, I have since ordered a much larger selection of items, and they arrived very quickly! I was somewhat taken aback, however to find that I had to pay duty on them. I understood that we have a free trade agreement with the U.S., but I did not realize that these items were generally made outside of that country and therefore were not subject to this agreement. In future, it would be nice if the source of manufacture of items could be shown in the online catalog to avoid unpleasant surprises. However, I will still buy from the site as the service is very good, and so are the products.

Looks great with my flat-topped, "gunfighter style" Western hat. I look forward to wearing this shirt at a special gathering during First Friday fun on Santa Fe Drive this April in Denver, Colorado.

This is a very nice quality shirt, I have found that for the money the dress shirts are the way to go. This is my 4th dress shirt, 2 from Frontier Classics and 2 from Scully, there nice shirts. Ive been harsh in the past on a (work shirt) I returned, I expected a better quality.

I wanted an authentic western shirt for my new hobby of Cowboy Action Shooting. I ran across Historical Emporium on the web and they had so many different patterns and colors of western shirts that it was difficult to make a decision. I finally decided on the Coulter style in black and white pinstripe. This is a great shirt, authentically styled and tailored and the pinstripes are visually very pleasing. Quality is quite nice and the large cut of the shirt is very comfortable. I am very pleased with the shirt.

Once again, I am simply delighted by the superior quality of this item, its authentic styling and true to size fit. It's also quite stylish and damned comfortable, to boot. I've only one, eensy problem with the shirts available here: I love french cuffs, and they simply aren't available on many of the shirts. You might want to seriously consider asking your manufacturer to offer them. Otherwise? Fine garment!

If you love the look of the Wild, Wild West, you will absolutely love the Coulter Shirt. This shirt has the perfect collar for a hand-tied bow or string tie. It is comfortable to wear and can go well with any solid-colored vest. The fit is fantastic! Best of all, it does not need dry cleaning. Machine wash in cold water and hang to dry for best results.

I ordered a Medium Coulter Shirt - and the sizing appears to run large. So, I returned it and ordered a Small, which fits perfectly (kind'a amazing because I don't wear a small *anything*!). The quality is impeccable and the shirt looks GREAT!

first words out of my young adult daughters mouth "sharp shirt Dad!" when the kids are right they are right!

very nice shirt - sizing seems a bit larger than the other coulter large that I bought - but not a problem!

And by "sweet" I mean "a fine shirt." I love it! So glad you guys are doing business. Time I bought something else. Too busy to write--gone shopping. Stick with it, guys!

I wear these shirts with the Chadwick waistcoat over the top. The shirts fit very well, and look much nicer with a waistcoat than a more modern style shirt with a pointed collar. The material and colours are lovely.

Shirt is beautiful. Fits great and looks great. I do miss having a pocket, though.

Well made stylish shirt. I wear it as a dress shirt and for performing.

I didn't know what to expect regarding quality, being a first time customer. Was very pleased with the quality of the shirt and fit. Would recommend the shirt to anybody.

Love it, great fit and look
