This is now my favorite vest i have about six from your collection. great quality & price Thanks

Love it! Quality of the fabric and styling are excellent! Great crossover piece with a classy touch for my favorite looks -- can go from formal to casual depending what it's combined with. Something I can wear to work, church, and downtown. The rounded bottom hem works nicely for displaying a fancy belt buckle. The Large size is slightly big for my 44" chest, but the adjustable buckle in the back makes it work, sizing is comfortable without buttons straining. Love the four front pockets, plenty of options for storage. The color is better described as brown/black, not brown/navy. The darker stripe is a soft black, not a blue tone. Love the brown/black stripe as it is, coordinates with more of my shirts/pants/jackets than the brown/navy would. The vertical stripes give a subtle slimming look.

I intend to wear the vest in several upcoming event as a living historian

I already had the pants but now I needed the vest. They were out of stock on the mediums so I had to get a large & take it in. I'll def check availability. Great quality!

Bought this and the matching Ferndale Striped spats to complete my patent medicine salesman 'living history' persona and am 1000% pleased with the fit and appearance. Both items look great in the website photos but are even more impressive in person. Really liked the higher neckline on this vest and the 4 pockets in front are perfect for everything from my pocket watch to a small bottle of 'cure all'. Thanks Historical Emporium for offering such great merchandise!

I ordered the whole suit; Frock coat, pants, vest and spats. Great quality. I'm 6'2" 215lbs and the XLs are a little on the large size, but I'll be getting them tailored. Not sure if the large would have done it, so not a big issue. LOOKS GREAT. Good weight to the fabric.

This is really one good looking vest! I have quite a few of your vests and am delighted with all of them. I'm a very big vest fan; don't consider myself fully dressed without one. This is the first striped vest I've bought and it certainly won't be the last. Congrats for a terrific product!

I love the vest. Just want to mention that the navy stripes look black.

The vest was very great quality!!! It was amazing I was very satisfied! I wore it my first day back to school and I think I made an impression I got many compliments and saw many signs of envy This isn't a costume it's a real suit It's a little boxy on me since I'm a girl but other than that it was absolutely fabulous

The vest was arrived very fast, the hubby loved it. The quality is great and fits like a dream.

Very snazzy.

Beautiful vest. Just what I was looking for. Fast shipping and great service. Will be back again and again, I'm sure.

I ordered this along with the matching trousers and we pleased to see how well it fit and how well-made it was. I would definitely recommend this ensemble to anyone looking for durable non-costume period clothing.

Only worn it twice so far- but the poll of those who have seen it suggests this is winner. great stuff. I'll be back for more style thanks for the great product

Seems great. Haven't tried to wash/clean it yet but the quality is nice. Trust the tape measure. I couldn't bring myself to order a size large as 100% of my wardrobe is XL. Ended up having to exchange it. I think I could have even fit a medium. Trust the tape measure procedure they give you. Also, go a size up on the pants as suggested. The Ferndale combo looks pretty sweet.

The black and white shirt looks great with a black bow tie as part of my Victorian outfit I put together for strolling around the historic buildings in Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI.

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.

I purchased this dress for historical re-enactment and to showcase the 1870 Peterson's Magazine Shawl I made from the pattern in the original magazine. The dress and shawl go together beautifully!

Wife loved it, fit well Western reenactment

The Lucille walking suit is a good value for the price. I was looking for a polonaise-style suit, and this is perfect!

I was impressed with the quality of the dress. I had a Wild West themed event to attend and this dress was perfect. I am sure I will make good use of it. I bought the white lace up boots to finish off the look.

I love this outfit! The materials and laces used are quality and the dress is well made. The outfit is perfect for the Dickens Christmas event in our town. I'll have a lot of fun wearing this for our bell choir event!

My husband particpates in an Annual Gentlemen's Motorcycle ride and I wanted an outfit that would match his look. This suit is beautifully made. Since we live in Colorado and have lot's of red dirt and dust, I expect the white ruffles will quickly get dirty and will probably add some black ruffles to the bottom hem. I have to admit I only own one white tank top and that is it for that color here! Did I say my husband loves me in this??

Exactly as I had expected. Size fit perfect. Delivery on time. Easy ordering. Well-made.

I'm a man, years ago for Galveston's Dickens on the Strand, my late wife got one of these in brown, and I got a merchant outfit - the frock coat, vest, top hat, etc. This year, a new lady friend of mine and I decided to be a little wacky for the Houston Museum of Natural Science Halloween party. My late wife's outfit was a pinch too tight, so I got this for me. I was an 1880's lady sheriff, handcuffs, etc, I tell everyone how well made, authentic and comfortable the clothes are and hope to get more friends to buy from you as we all go to Dickens this year. People are used to stuff from Party City or those temporary Halloween stores and are really impressed with high class stuff and are of an age that we can spend a little more on fun. (but I'm done with any gender bender til next Halloween)

Love dress. Size ran big

I do not and have not worn a dress in many, many years, but I really enjoyed putting this dress on along with the Hoop Underskirt. I am a short person and both the Skirt and the Hoop Underskirt will need to have some adjustment done to the length but otherwise, I am very happy with them. I ordered a size larger than I normally wear but it may be I actually do wear the size I ordered. I am excited to actually put it on for the Christmas parade this weekend. Thank you very much for having the Vintage Clothing available for purchase. I will continue to shop and buy as the need arises.

FAST ship! Thank you!

This waistcoat is nothing short of magnificent. I've wanted a white waistcoat for years, and now I have one. One of the amazing things about it it is that the white-on-white brocade has colour-shifting properties that can make the brocade look a pale shade of glacier-blue in the right light. A masterwork.

I have been purchasing form Historical Emporium for several years and have never been anything but completely satisfied with their products or services. I highly recommend them for all your historical product needs.

I wear formal attire, white tie and tails, for symphony concerts. This vest is very comfortable and looks great. Should have gotten one of these 40 years ago...

I bought this vest as I am getting married in December. This vest fits well and looks great with the white tuxedo frock coat and pants I'll be wearing.

Beautiful vest that is well made.

Best purchase I've made,it's a beautiful pice of work,I love it.

This is the seventh Vest I have purchased along with shirts, puff ties and hats over the years! This site matches my style and I have never been disappointed!

Oddly, I bought this to work on the parts of an outfit to be a Scottish Santa Claus. The vest is perfect! I've worn in twice with jeans and a solid color shirt. I like it very much, the quality is solid and I've gotten compliments from men and women. My wife even said, "You need more vests, you look really good in it!"

No occasion. Just love tweed and vests. Haven't worn it yet but look forward to the day I break it out!

My wife gifted me this vest for Christmas, I have to say I'm overjoyed with the material and style. This will be a great vest for date night or any other occasion I need to dress up more than just casual. The fit, the quality, the overall construction, just perfect.

My husband loves it. Every time he wears it he receives compliments.

Very well made with attention to detail.

First time customer and now - Historical Emporium Fan!!! Well made, quality product at a great price. Fast shipping and the fit? PERFECT!

The fall and winter months are rapidly coming upon us and there no better time than to breakout the Aberdeen Tweed Vest - Olive Herringbone for the coming colder months ahead. The olive green color is as lush and lively as a bountiful grassy field on a brisk fall day. And its rough but stunning texture harkens with character and gentlemanly appeal. The olive hue gives the vest a sleek air of serious sophistication. If you are looking for a vest that will give your outfit that polished and refined appearance then this vest is definitely for you. It can be worn to formal, informal or semi formal events and its mid weight and breathable construction allows it to be worn year round. Well done Emporium!

Purchased for a friend, fit well, looks great, friend loved it!

Just what I wanted, fit just I'd hoped. I love it!

Fits great and good quality.

Great jacket! Nice design and fit

I've always loved the look of a coat like this, and I wasn't disappointed when I received mine. As I'm very short it hangs lower on me, but I think that makes it look even better!

I love this coat! It is perfect for California winters and might run a tad bit large, but can easily be adjusted. It took a bit longer to receive than I thought, but it was worth the wait.

This was purchased as a gift, and the recipient was very pleased. Size small fits a young, thin frame well. The shoulders lined up perfectly, but the waist runs rather large for a small coat. This is a very simple fix, though; the buttons on the back-gathering straps can easily be sewn in another place according to one's waist, or the straps can just be tied together for a different look. The quality is superb, especially considering the low price. Highly recommended.

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.

I wanted a second shirt and a different necktie for my GAR impression. Although the shirt was listed as a special order and I was cautioned that it would take longer to send, it came in record time- two weeks.

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

Love the material, the buttons are heavy and high quality, it's super cute, and the material feels high quality too. Fits wonderfully. Only complaint is it feels just a touch small in the bust area, it kind of flattens mine a bit. Fortunately you can't really tell too much and otherwise it fits like a dream.

This will be great for both reenacting and real life! Sized up since will be wearing over other clothes, has a tie in the back so can still get a nice fit.

Original 1880 Town Midland, South Dakota

This is the second vest that I have purchased. I love it as much as my first one, and expect to buy more. Thank you for providing such a well-made product!

Very comfortable and looks great with my walking skirts

Well made. Just right, true to size & a good fit.

This is for our daughter's wedding. It is at a cattle ranch in Elko NV. She wants a western look. This is perfect. Easy ordering. Quick delivery. Great packaging. Love this vest. Better than expected. Great quality and color. It will be perfect.

This is a real fabric vest that is authentic for the period. Great quality. I love the quality of the costumes from historical emporium.

This will be a gift. I hope it's enjoyed. It's smart and stylish and extremely well made. Packing and shipping were careful and with attention to protecting the garment. Nice shopping experience.

The Bryant Tweed Vest - Tan Herringbone in color, is a very simple and marvelously crafted vest. Derived from The Walden, this vest comes to us just in time for Spring. Its relaxed hue combined with its gorgeous herringbone pattern is calming as a soothing breeze. And its neutral tone is sure to provide a sense of elegance and sophistication to any colorful scheme that you might pair with it. As always, this vest is constructed with top notch craftsmanship and can be worn to formal, semi formal and informal events. And it's heavy but breathable construction makes it the perfect vest to wear all year round. There is no doubt that this vest should be a welcome addition, as well, become the centerpiece of every true gentleman's wardrobe. Thank you Emporium
