The web site is easy to use, and the shipping was very fast. The product ( spats) works fine and is well constructed. The problem I have is that the selection of spats is not remotely historically accurate or authentic. Polyester fabric, elastic foot strap, cloth-covered buttons; these did not exist in the heyday of spats. I have authentic spats from the period. The problem is that I also have large feet, and the spats from Historical Emporium are the only ones I can find that fit. (Kind of like, "I know the game is crooked, but it's the only game in town.") I knew what I was purchasing, and what I purchased is well made and exactly what was described. My desire, though, would be for the product from a place calling itself "Historical Emporium" would actually be historically accurate.

The item is wonderful!! I wear it every night in bed. It's very functional, and I don't consider it steampunk at all. Take care.

As always for several years now, I love doing business with the Emporium. I portray many historical characters from the 1820's to the Civil War. They've got it all! I receive my order within a day and a half (I live 1.5 hours south of them). Great products. Fairly descent prices; but, you definitely get w hat you pay for.

Overall experience was simply great, online ordering and speaking with customer support
