Stylin'

As advertised. I needed it quick so I called customer support. Item was delivered quickly.

I'll wear this onstage proudly

Masquerade Ball

To wear with my western wedding tuxedo.

Vest was a little snug..... should have ordered the next size up. But it still looks AWESOME!!!! Love the way it looks... especially over a black shirt. Had to call customer service cause the pockets were 3/4 sewn up... did not know the maker did that for shipping purpose and they told me just to snip the thread.... and behold a full pocket.

The Vest fit nicely even under the coat and looked really sharp over the shirt.

Beautiful Vest. Looks as good as I hoped! I am using it when I drive my horse-drawn carriage.

This vest was just what I had been looking for. I am glad I stumbled upon their website ( Very nice site, I might add) a quick transaction and delivery within a week, I will agree with another reviewer to order up one size, this vest runs a little small. I sent mine back and they replaced it with the larger size , they had it back to me in no time!

I had previously ordered another Klondike Vest (Red) and it fit according to the size specified. The silver one seemed to run small so I have returned it for an exchange of a larger size. The color and fabric were as stated. I truly am enjoying the first one I ordered so I am looking forward to receiving the new one.

This vest looked sharp, and fit very well. Ordered a XLT, and was grateful for the nice selection of Tall sizes.

Pros-Beautiful pattern design for vest. Nice Weight. Made Well. Cons-Not true to measurement. Husband is 48", Vest measured 2" smaller. If you are long waisted you may want to consider the item in a Tall. Returned and will order a size larger in a Tall.

I think the title says it all. This vest is amazing. Great color. Strong addition to the wardrobe. Provides multiple options for neck wear.

Fits perfectly. Very stylish.

The Klondike silver vest is very stylish, looks very classy on, it's great for a dressy occasion. Would recommend this colour and style.

I've always been satisfied with all of your products.

Was concerned about quality as I had never ordered from them before. No need, very high quality and very happy with the look.

I have several of these vests from Historical Emporium. I wear them at casual business events, travelling, etc. With a white shirt (some period/historical; black slacks, boots) o look smart but a bit unconventional (I'm in IT :). The vests are lightweight, fit nicely (I leave them unbuttoned). I'm 6', but thin/lean build (28" waist) so small works. They wear well; some are 7+ years old, only fraying a bit. With the collection I have its a great wardrobe

For Ken Ludwig's Baskerville at the Mendocino Theatre Company. Great fit and the color is perfect.

It will be exactly tly what you want!

Fits fine. Well made. Wore to Dickens on the Strand festival in Galveston, Tx

everyday-how i dress

It is a lovely vest; however, I normally wear a large, but I was swimming in this and I measured myself beforehand as well.

It was everything I hoped for and more I would definitely use them again.

I bought this vest for a wedding I'm going to in October. The vest is beautiful and so well made, I could have gotten a size smaller but the fit is fine, I was afraid It would be to small because of other vests I bought on line and had to return them because the sizes they sent were way to small.

Needed a turquoise vest for a wedding. This arrived and is perfect color and size. It is absolutely beautiful.

We wanted to love this vest because the paisley print teal matched wonderfully with my teal wedding dress, High quality, beautiful material, well made, but the lapels did not suit the groom. We will be returning this item but not becasues of quality or price. Delivery by the way was speedy too.

One of my husband's favorite gifts.

This is a beautiful vest but we needed more turquoise than green. The vest in person has got much more green than blue so the "Teal" description is accurate but the internet picture is not. Still a great vest and we returned it with absolutely no problems. Thanks, HE!

The vest was beautiful and very good quality. Fit leaned toward the smaller size, so if you are on the line, go with the larger size.

Great looking vest. My son went to a school dance and really liked this one. He received some great complements.

I got this vest to liven up my boring grey suit, to get married in. It matched my wife's dress, and I got a lot of compliments on how I looked. I was worried that the vest's lapels would overlap my shirt collar, but they fit together like a dream. I wore my grandfather's pocket watch in my vest pocket, attaching the chain to the top vest button, and people loved how it looked. I'm looking forward to wearing this vest in the future, perhaps as part of a Steampunk or old-timey gambler costume.

Excellent Item, better quality than expected. Will purchase more items form this company in the future.

Bought 3 vests for the grooms in my wedding. Great look and crazy fast shipping.

Bought 3 of these vests for guys in my wedding party. Great look and quality. Shipping was way faster than I had planned.

Enjoyed wearing this Virgil Erp shirt and brown silk western gambler Klondike vest to a Wild West Dinner Show & after dinner cocktails & whiskey in the Silver Dollar Saloon while visiting Jackson Hole!

always looks good good fit

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.

Excellent! High quality! Good fit! Thank you for carrying quality clothes for us big , tall men!

Great vest. May be ordering more.

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.

I'm a big guy, 6"1" 280lb I ordered a 3xTall Almost a perfect fit, Needed to be just a bit longer.

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!

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!

I ordered several vests to try on for our daughter's wedding. They arrived quickly. The return process was fast & easy & my refund was very prompt. This vest is just beautiful. Fits perfectly & is exactly what I was looking for. This was the only one I could find in this style in my size. Couldn't be more pleased.

Great color and the quality is very good

Bought several items. 2 vest, 2 pair of pants, 2 shirts, 2 pairs of boots along with several other items. All fit exactly as expected. The Midnight Hour Vest was much larger than the other vest. But the quality was great. Please note that you will have to send it back at your own cost. It cost me $14.00 just to ship it back and then Historical Emporium will charge you shipping again to get your replacement.

The pictures do not do this vest justice. The pattern looks like swirling ink in a midnight sky.

This vest is wonderful, it has a dark shimmer to it while not being overly reflective. I wear all black with this even the tie. It gives a mysterious vibe.

The midnight hour vest fulfills all of my needs as I enjoy dressing in the 18th century style. These items help me make a lasting impression on individuals I do business with. I'm not only a minister I'm a medical equipment sales men. These items help me leave a memorable impression and my customers make a better connection with me and my products.

Ordered this vest because I'm 6'4" tall, 275 lbs, with a 53" chest and this was one of the few places where big and tall guys can find dress clothes in 3XLT and up. The product is exactly as advertised, a real dark black, sturdy material with a very detailed, nice pattern that looks awesome in neon lights. The material on the back is also black, and has vertical lines in it. The buttons feel a bit loose after two uses, especially the bottom one, but it is normal wear and tear and there is an extra one included. The sizing is a bit big, and I know I'm not the first person to comment on that here. I learned that by reading these reviews, too. Like I said, I'm a big guy and it is hard for them to know if you need a 3XLT because you're a broad, muscular guy, or because you're built like Jabba the Hut, so plan on a 3XL being a bit roomy, especially around the arms. It fit great across the chest, but was obviously designed for someone with a bit more fluff to them than I have. Even so, the vest looks great, and if I want it tightened up a bit, it's nothing my local seamstress can't knock out in a jiffy. Happily, if you have any other problems, the customer service for this site is awesome, so you should be able to clear anything up with ease. Not a bad experience, and I will be a return customer the next time I need nice formal wear.

I am very pleased with the appearance and quality of this vest. Its appearance changes slightly as the light catches the paisley pattern, , adding the subtle touch I was looking for without color. My measurements fell right between the L and XL breakpoint, and I ended up going with XL. It seems quite roomy on me, so the sizing does not appear to run small. It looks great under my cutaway coat!

I purchased this vest recently because I was looking for a dark charcoal vest. The color of the vest in these pictures and the color of the vest I received are a little further apart than I expected. To my eyes the pictured vest is a dark grey, the vest I received is clearly BLACK. Nevertheless, it is a very well made vest. The fit is perfect and it looks damn good with a puff tie.

you will love it

Ordered this vest for a groomsman. It fits him perfect and the quality is wonderful for the price! Can't beat it and super happy!!

Good looking vest. Thanks! My only wish is that is would be made in the USA. It is not.

I bought this vest as something to wear on stage when I perform so it's "costuming" but it's not costumey. I wear it with a modern, slim-fit formal shirt with french cuffs and it has earned me compliments every time I've worn it. When next I'm flush, I'll be getting a bunch of other Historical Emporium vests -- I think this one comes in blue . . . maybe in black and silver. I suspect they'll all work just as well for me. Thanks for the wonderfulness of your stuff!

I was very pleased with the quality of the vest, as well as the timeliness of the shipment. Thank you!

Really nice vest. It's a Scully brand which I've had other items from them. Top notch.

Very good product. Looks great and nice fit. Great comments from everyone.

Love the vest, great color and fit.

Husband needed a vest for a costumed wedding we attended. This vest is great looking and a good product. Quick shipping. Would definitely order from Historical Emporium again if the need arises.

Scully brand, very nicely made. I'm long in the torso and the 2XL-Tall fits very well. Pockets are tacked shut, be warned before you jam your hands in the pockets. Lightweight, excellent for fashion without adding weight to your outfit.

great vest. the size was perfect....it is a scully!

Great Vest, wish you had more products my size.

I love the feel of the silk fabric and it fits so swell. The buttons are all covered with rich distinction of supine appointment. I wore the vest to a Christmas party and really felt as if I ascended into another relm. Compliments galore. It really has a rich wine burgandy color that shines taste. I will be looking for more items like the jacket in the future.

I bought this for my husband to wear at our town's Heritage Day celebration, but he loved it so much that he's worn it to work several times already! He's tall, so the extra length in the tall sizes is a welcome plus. The paisley pattern is absolutely gorgeous. This is the 5th or 6th vest we've bought from Historical Emporium, and we'll continue to buy new ones.

What can I say other than that I have been more than satisfied with all my products purchased from the historical emporium. Great quality, and look. My latest purchase the burgundy Klondike vest is no exception. I am blown away with how great it looks, It is a gift for my brother, I’m sure he will feel the same. . I am so happy that a company like yours is out there. Keep up the great work!

My husband loves his new vest. The fit is just right, and he likes the fabric.

Beautiful vest with a perfect fit. Also, Great Quality. I was extremely well please. The time from ordering to arrival was excellent. I look forward to purchasing other items in the near future. Thank you.

Looks so much better in person. Fits great. Fast delivery. High quality all the way around.

Vest arrived in great condition. Looks good. Feels good. As advertised. Beautiful fabric. Two minor issues: 1. The vest appears to me to be a bit short - I'm 5'9" tall, 230lbs, and it doesn't cover my beltline - my shirt is showing above my belt all the way around me. I've never needed to buy "tall" clothes before, but apparently I would need to do so for this item. 2. The only comment is that tailoring was absolutely necessary. Although I purchased the correct size for my check/waist size, the vest was rather baggy around the lapels/check area. After $60 worth of tailoring, it now does not have the unsightly wrinkles in this area and fits well. In all fairness, I've been given to understand that tailoring is required for most/all vests.

work and other occasions

This was our second purchase of a vest from Historical Emporium and we were pleased once again. The shipment was very quick and the workmanship of the vest A+.

Ordered this for an accent for a groom's suit and he now shines. Paisley pattern is classic and the texture of the fabric is rich and detailed. Looks and feels very expensive. Very impressed.

I'm a big guy... 6'3" with a couple of extra pounds, so every time I order a vest it's a gamble of whether it will be wide and short, or baggy and too long, etc etc. This vest was not only a perfect fit (shoulders, chest, waist and length), but the quality was apparent and I'm VERY happy with it. Highly recommended and well worth the $$.

Nice vest. Medium quality. Needed some tailoring. Arm holes cut little too wide.

Bought this for my husband’s birthday. We have a Model T and participate in a number of events. This vest is quite elegant, and he looks quite dapper in it. He wore it to a commemorative tea and was a big hit. Well made, beautiful fabric!

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 and vests at Historical Emporium to put together a “look”. To include the Tuxedo-look of the Sinclair Edwardian Club Collar Shirt and Gold Klondike 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 vest xxl fit fine- I did have a bit of a problem with the vest - one of the metal buttons was not sealed closed properly in the back - it had a very sharp metal opening- which actually when I put on the vest - sliced through the thread of the back of the button- within seconds- button was on floor. I have thought of sending back vest- but will try to send to a tailor to try to repair. Otherwise- vest was as advertised- great fit. Bottom line - I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you.

Ordered Klondike got Paisley. Is that the same Please send answer Thanks

It is just what the image portrays. Great looks and fit. Goes with the rest of the outfit. Very good quality item. Excited to get to wear this in my nieces wedding!

Ordered an XLarge Tall for my husband. It fit accordingly to his size. Beautiful design.

Ordered an XLarge Tall for my husband. It fit accordingly to his size. Beautiful design.

I purchased this vest to wear to Christmas service at my church. My wife loved it, and my church family provided a number of compliments. With Historical Emporium's service and the quality of their products, I will absolutely continue to shop here!!! Thanks, Brian D. Texas

It is difficult to find vests that fit my husband properly; I picked him up the 3XT version of this vest and it fits him well. It is beautiful and amazing.

The ordering process was easy and efficient. A lot of items and styles to choose from! I wanted a festive vest for a holiday party. The emerald color was a little darker than anticipated and I was hoping for something a little brighter green. Also, I needed to have the vest altered some, I’m a slim and thin guy. Nonetheless, it is of good quality and I like the fabric and style very much. It will provide the style and “festive dress” requirements for the party. I’m grateful to have found a company and supplier of unique and stylish garments for men, above and beyond the run of the mill.

My husband was pleased with the look of the vest when it arrived, but it did not fit his pear-shaped body. However, we were pleased with the speed of the original mailing and the efficiency with which the return was handled.

Purchased this for a party and it came within a week. Great materiel and cut. I bought it big because other vests I have purchased came small. This one was exactly what they said it was going to be. Materiel was great and cut was professional. Vest can be used for multiple purposes, not just as a period costume. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again.

the fitting was right and the vest make a statement at my Christmas party. well constructed, good materials and great quality.

I just received the Middlethorpe Vest that I ordered and it is absolutely beautiful. Well made and simply beautiful. The fit is great and the quality is admirable. I love it!!!

Although a little baggy under the arms for my fit, fabric quality much better than I expected. Other re-enactors thought the pattern should also be on the rear, I preferred it the way it was.

A bit large, had to take it in a couple of inches, otherwise excellent!

I liked the design of the vest but quality of the fabric used was disappointing.

My daughter was planning a Steam Punk theme for her wedding. She suggested your site and we chose this item as the basis for my outfit. The fit was very good and the quality of the product was exceptional.

I have two Scully vests almost identical but in two different colors. I wear them almost every night during the summer months between Memorial Day and Labor Day. They hold up quite well and are very nice looking...Even after all of the wear they get!

Emerald Vest I play Santa and the Vests that I purchased from you helps me play the part all year long. Thank You

Well made product; perfect for Madi Gras!

I bought this for my husband for Christmas and it is a perfect fit. He absolutely loves it! It's high quality and authentic. I am very pleased with it

We will be attending a Jane Austen Society Regency Ball/Birthday Party soon, and I got my husband this handsome vest to wear with his other items of costuming. It is well made, a beautiful color, the L fits him well. I have a short dark green cape to wear with a white empire dress, and I think we shall make quite the attractive, older couple.
