I expected a nice jacket. This purchase exceeded expectations! Buy it, you'll love it!

Received my order super quick and very satisfied with the quality of the jacket. I have wanted to get this for years and it was as nice as I hoped it would be.

The person who received this jacket simply loved it. It fit perfectly and he is thrilled.

Very comfortable and much more dignified than a robe. The ladies approve.

Overall I am very happy with my purchases. While I am happy with my smoking jacket and wear it regularly, I think it is not quite up to the very high standard I have seen in my other purchases. It will not have an effect though on my planned future purchases.

What more can I say? It was just what I was looking for! And Historical Emporium delivered!

I really enjoy the look of this jacket. I wear it almost every time I smoke my pipe.

Seems like it would be better with linen lining polyester just makes it seem like cheap feeling

Purchased this for my husband for Christmas, expecting something he could wear while sipping scotch by the fire in the evening. It was somewhat of a joke as he fancies himself a "gentleman and a scholard" - yes I mean to spell it that way as irony - but I still expected something comfy to wear. Perhaps I misunderstood your company's heavy emphasis on costuming at your web site, and I paid a dear $20 to return ship these items back to you for a refund. The fabric of the jacket was more like flocked paper than velvet - so - OK for a stage or party costume, but not for garments to wear. As others have mentioned, the color was not burgundy but a dark red - still bright like red. Disappointed, but that's why I start now for Christmas shopping. Your site was very entertaining and I learned about steam punk. LOL

I received the jacket and to me it is more of a costume piece than something you would wear to events...parties. The quality of the jacket material wise I thought was somewhat stiff and bulky for a velvet jacket.....again costume quality and look. The jacket is also not fitted so if you are slim fit...this is not for you either. I returned the jacket because it was not what I expected look and material quality wise.

its been on my wish list for some time now and now I have it!

Fast Shipping. This Jacket is so Beautiful. True to Color and Very Well Made. Excellent Quality. Just Love It.

Stepping out of the pages of British history ...this classic velvet jacket and hat are perfect. Fun to wear, comfortable and cozy. Light the fire in the fireplace, get the brandy bottle and relax after a stressful day and hear the parish bells ringing in the tower as the horses walk the cobbled streets.

For a theatrical production. Nice saturated color, good fit, and nice details. I would have given in a 5 star had the velvet been a better quality but is truly beautiful on stage and works quite well for period shows.

Great quality!! This coat is exactly what I was looking for. Its warm and well made. I have bought 5 coats from this site and have been pleased every time. Great service and fast delivery. thanks.

First, why would anyone buy the jacket? Once you get past that let me tell you that the day it arrived, I slipped it on and grabbed a book and hit the Lazyboy. Up here in Michigan the evenings are brutal in the winter and the older one gets, the more so. This jacket was so warm and comfortable. Fit like a charm and so stylish. I'm so pleased with the fit and the quality. well worth the price. It's like going back in time. sometimes that's a good thing!

Loved the purple velvet vintage smoking jacket! I purchased this jacket for my fiance' for Christmas and he loved it! The quality of the jacket was way above what I was expecting! Very well made!

I purchased this for my husband's birthday, we're both very happy with it. He is size XL with broad shoulders and the XL fits perfectly. The material is a bit thinner than I was imagining but the extra padding in the front ensures it hangs well. The buttons and lapel are very classy. For the price it was a great buy.

It is an outstanding jacket, it was loved out on the town... Nothing but good feedback!

THIS JACKET BRINGS BACK SOME OLD, BUT FOND MEMORIES! HE HAD ONE IN THE EARLY '70'S. ROCK ON

There's nothing quite like a classic smoking jacket. And this one is TOO classic AND classy. I'm so very pleased with the quality, the look, and the sheer awesomeness of this garment. It totally exceeds my expectations. And...the chicks really dig it, too. Bravo!

Nice material, classic look, solid construction, moves well... yeah, it's a lovely piece. And the delivery was pretty much immediate, and I live in deep Alaska, and never get that kind of service. The only down side is that I spent this much on a smoking jacket...

The "velvet" and fancy loopholes are so fun. Bought as kind of a gag gift for a friend for his 50th - he loved it!!! Quality is good for the price. So fun and over the top. Purple is vibrant. Also bought paisley ascot with it - great!

The jacket is too stiff and I don't like the button loops.

Hi to all at Historical Emporium: I'm glad to see you provide a space for comments. For it is something I've always felt is important in improving quality of service and/or the quality of a product. For in the end, it is the customers and/or clients that make a business. The Vintage Smoking Jacket- Purple Velvet is stunning yet elegant. It will turn customer's eyes upon the entry of my new business to be. The only thing I'm not happy about is that the inside lining stiffens up the smoking jacket. The inside lining has a 'crackling' sound as well which, makes it sound not attractive. The appearance on your website gives the smoking jacket a softer yet flowing look and that's what I expected. But I , also, understand that buying off the internet is always taking a risk. So, being very descriptive about a product will help give a larger image of what to expect. Otherwise, I'm 80% happy with the jacket. Thank you for asking for my input.

This was a gift for my brother. Great looking, my brother loved it. I bought my husband a different smoking jacket that was about $20 more, from the same store, and was blow away by the quality of his. Both jackets were incredible unique gifts.

I thought that the jacket quality was ok but fell short of the steep pricetag

I really wanted to like this jacket. Upon unpacking I have to say that the color is awesome and it really shines. However, as soon as I put the jacket on it was clear that the materials and construction were very cheap. The foam or padding in the shoulders made a "ruffling noise" when it moved, and just the overall feel was cheap and nasty. I returned mine, and true to their word this was easy and no questions asked.

I'm sorry to have been impatient about the requirement to confirm a credit card charge. The robe came very promptly and it is so high quality

My husband loves this and I love hugging him in it. The material is so nice to touch and snuggle but also keeps him warm and handsome

I am 6'6" so I have long arms so general do not expected things to fit my long arms so this jacket could have been a little longer in the arms but otherwise fit very well

This robe looks great, fits well, and it's comfortable in the winter months. But the interior lining tears very easily, even with minimal stress. Every seam on the inside has split somewhere.

Great quality, got this as a gift for my brother… he loved it, great gift. Classy looking, very elegant and a must have for a cigar connoisseur. Thank you for your service… will definitely buy again.

Since he was a baby, my grandson has always stripped down, curled up in a blanket, and claimed his corner of my couch. It was fine when he was little, but he is a teenager now. When I saw this, I knew it was perfect for him. He has always had a love for super soft, and this is way beyond that. When I showed my husband, and he tried it on, he immediately asked for one for himself. The quality of the workmanship, and the materials is out of this world

It's everything I hoped it would be! Beautifully made and so comfortable.

fantastic 1920 look / very noel coward elegant and comfortable!

Appropriately sized, excellent quality, color as expected from online pictures.

A great jacket for wearing at home. This is not for going out in. It would be like going to the movies in your pyjamas. Strictly for your own home

I was more than impressed with this absolutely beautiful jacket! The fit was PERFECT for my man. It was a wedding gift for him. He LOVED it!

Excellent item with all the requisite (and often lost) necessities of a smoking jacket. It protects my clothes from ash, it soaks up odors from smoke, and it withstands frequent use outdoors. Also it looks sharp as heck! Highly recommend. :)

Good quality. Not so luxurious so don't get your hopes very high. A bit pricey for the product but again it is okay.

Sometimes, but not every day, there is just a need for a velvet jacket. This is it. Wonderful color, and (by the way) quite warm. I have been wearing it in the cooler nights of Pittsburgh out on the front porch after work. Well made, and really cool buttons. Thank you for such a unique product!

Fit was well as well as quality.

Love it. I bought this to wear in a local production of Mel Brooks' "The Producers". It was perfect.

The material in the sleeves & back should be heavier. Other than that you need larger sizes. The 4XL fits in the chest, but not in the belly.

My husband has been wanting this smoking jacket for 2 years. I finally bought it for him for his birthday. The quality and workmanship is even better than I expected. It does not look cheap at all.

I am so glad I ordered this jacket from Historical Emporium! It shipped out to me in about 2 days which was incredibly fast. It came packaged very neatly on a hanger and also had plastic covering to protect it from dust, all I had to do was open it and hang it until I was ready to use it. It is exactly as shown on the photo, great material and my husband received many compliments! He wore it as part of a Gomez Addams halloween costume. Great service and great product! I would highly recommend this!

It's very comfortable and reasonably priced. It's a great looking and classy jacket for evening entertainment at home when one doesn't want to be too formal - but not too casual nor sloppy either. Highly recommended!

My boyfriend loves it! Very unique, beautifully made, well fitted, comfortable and regal! He wore it to his company's New Year's eve event and the complements were endless! Definitely a statement when worn out but also nice for classy evening at home and having a scotch in style. Soft fabric feels good to the touch as well.

What a find. Smoking jackets are making a strong comeback but this one with frogging beats all others I've seen. Well made and good price. I should get another!

I had been looking for a smoking jacket with frog closures, and this was a great find. High quality and it is gorgeous! Fit was right on and it seems very well made.

I bought it for my husband and he loves it!!! He looks like a gentleman from the 1950's. I got a L and fits perfect.

super fast service, well packed a complete pleasure to do business with, jacket fits exactly as I need it , well made and looks great, will definitely be coming back.

This jacket is awesome and looks great! Perfect for nights in the smoking lounge

My son has a lot of anxiety regarding giving and receiving gifts. The smoking jacket was the greatest gift he has ever seen. Never before seen smiles on Christmas morning. The quality seems great but the proof is in the wearing. For now it is a treasured holiday memory at least.

Excellent in all the important ways! The fabric is soft, the colour is deep, the collar folds & holds, and the pockets are plenty big enough

Excellent product! Very glad I was able to find this vendor. Russ

My husband loved it

I bought it for my husband for Christmas, he loves it !!!

This is so debonair. Wearing this smoking jacket too much would be abusing the privilege to wear it at all lol.

Very poor quality material .It looks, feels and is made of plastic fibers .Shiny and cheap.

This jacket is terrific - made the perfect Christmas gift for my tall, elderly father who had recently said he always wanted a jacket like this. Excellent quality and fit, and at a very reasonable price - I shopped around the internet extensively and this site's prices and product offering were the best.

... I coupled it with a Spencer vest... & a chrome pocket watch and chain draped over the middle... More.

As with many of the items I have ordered from this site, I ordered this to wear to a friend's themed birthday party but will use it for many more social functions. It is very well made and looks great. It will make a great alternative to the more traditional tux. I got so many compliments on the smoking jacket that people forgot to complain about the smell of the cigars I was smoking. Now I'm just waiting for the matching smoking cap.

Very well made! Wish I had ordered one size larger, but should lose a little weight anyway...

Way better quality than the smoking jackets website - and 1/2 the price too! It's the smoking jacket I've been looking for - now I just have to find some mutton chops to go with it.

Excellent quality, gorgeous fabric, and exactly what my husband has always wanted. He loves it!

Hubby loved his birthday gift. Great instructions for insuring best fit! Will certainly buy from you again!

I was looking for a smoking jacket for a 60th b-day gift. Originally leaning toward a red velvet smoking jacket but those reviews led me to the Burgundy Brocade because it is not as shiny and costumey. I am the same size as the recipient 5'-11" and 175 lbs. My coat size if 40 to 42 and the medium smoking jacket fit me perfectly. (I was going to keep it if it didn't fit the recipient!) The quality appears to be good. The recipient was very pleased to get it!

Very stylish, lovely quality, indubitably. You must, I say must, have your butler order one up for you immediately.

Bought for a Gomez Addams costume. Perfect fit (usually am a medium but bought the small, and fit well).

Very nice. Fit as expected, good fit. Really sharp and got plenty of compliments. It was just what I wanted.

Well made product. Good fit.

Purchased this for my boyfriend who is a self-proclaimed "fancy man". He has not stopped wearing this to smoke cigars since I gave it to him. It's decent quality and it looks great. Pair it with an ascot and you'll look super fancy :).

Very nice quality. Does not look like a costume. Great buy!

What a hit! This went over at our smoking dinner like James Bond.

Great fit and comfortable. The buttons are a little hard to fasten, but otherwise workmanship seems very fine.

Bought it for my boss. He loves it and looks so darn fancy!

I looked at several smoking jackets, and this one won hands down... The material and workmanship is outstanding, and I would recommend it to anyone that likes old school...

Fantastic quality, concerning the price. Great speed for delivery !! a very reliable company.

A well made jacket. Fine quality. Really nice. Size is accurate except I forgot my slightly robust (fat) belly. I fit into the jacket but am about 1/2 inch too fat. But can button all the buttons with one a little snug. Have lost weight this past week so with another couple of pounds off I won't fear shooting a button off and knocking someone out. Well worth getting. Larger size would've been too large in the shoulders but fine around my portly self. Glad I found your site.

I can't speak highly enough of the quality of this smoking jacket! The color was beautiful, and it was made really well. Very warm when I'm outside reading and smoking

I bought this jacket for my husband as a gift. The fit was correct and the fabric and stitching seem to be of good quality. The rich color is exactly as it was in the picture. My husband is very happy with the jacket as am I. Regards E.P.M

Great looking jacket, great fit, good material. This jacket was a cut above what I expected for the price. Fit was spot on, only requiring a simple adjustment to sleeve length. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

I've been fascinated by smoking jackets since I was a kid, watching old black and white movies. Every now and then I'd search for one, but they were either threadbare used ones, cheap costume types, or way too expensive modern day versions. Happened upon Historical Emporium and took a chance and ordered their vintage version. Love it! The material and construction are high quality. Looks and feels like it should cost a whole lot more. But the most important thing? Well, the difference between having a smoke, and having a smoke in this jacket is something that can't quite be explained, it just has to be experienced.

I bought this jacket as a gift for someone special who has always wanted a smoking jacket, and what a successful gift! Had to return an XL for an L; the L fits the recipient very nicely. The brocade isn't too gaudy; it's a nice, rich green. The collar and detailing are terrific. Perfect for changing into after an intense day, to enjoy a whiskey and good conversation. While it doesn't have the detailing of some other smoking jackets offered on this site, it holds its own with a mixture of elegance, dignity, and color.
