Theater production. It was so nice to order something online that was of this quality. Thank you for keeping up your standard!

I'll wear this onstage proudly

Our grand daughter has chosen the theme of late Victorian for her wedding. Her colors are red and Gold. The first coat, shirt and pants that I ordered were too big and I needed to return them for the next smaller size. The exchange was accomplished within 5 days. A company rep. was very helpful when I called about the problem. The replacement garments are a good fit although I will need a small alteration to the vest because my middle is larger than my chest. Quality & workmanship of clothing is excellent and I expect that they will last for many years.... and Never go out of style. Thank you! I plan to order additional items in future.

Fits well, but I am looking for an all-wool morning coat.

I needed a new coat to finish off my outfit for a special event celebrating the 50th anniversary of Dickens on the Strand this year. This cutaway morning coat fit well, has classic style, and was just what I was looking for to feel like a gentleman for the evening.

Party

I wasn't sure what to expect as I'd never ordered from historical emporium. This coat is beautiful and I will definitely be using this company for more of my costuming needs. I received the order very quickly and am very pleased with the purchase. The coat has excellent quality!

Very comfortable fit all all over.

Fairly expensive for a cotton/poly coat, but it looks pretty good. We will see how it holds up over time.

Right from the box, my new coat looked great, and exactly like what I wanted. As I tried it on, it actually fit perfectly. It's going to be hard to wait till the Christmas Candlelight Tour of Homes to wear it, but I'll try... I would recommend this coat to anyone interested in stepping back in time for Events.

Couldn't have been more satisfied

Fit perfectly

I'm creating a mid-1800s clergy outfit and this coat, with the matching trousers (and suspenders) arrived quickly and, though the material is thicker than I would like, they fit as sized and only needing to shorthen the sleeve length and trouser hem. Amen :-)

I needed a vintage outfit to attend a fundraiser at the National Civil War Museum in Harrisburg, PA. This coat was perfect for what I needed.

I am trying to set a trend. As I get older I want to look my best. I wear these daily to leave an impression on my clients who never forget me. They'll say: that's the guy who wears those fine clothes. It breaks the ice with new customers. I really enjoy. Wearing them. Thank you.

This Livingston cutaway sack coat is a very well made coat with an all round tailor-made look & fit's me well the sizing was spot on to my size that i ordered. This is an excellent addition to my Old West wardrobe & highly recommended as a purchase.

The Livingston cutaway sack coat is a VERY NICE coat for the money . It runs true to my standard suit coat sizing and fit me perfectly . The only problem i had was that the top button hole was sewn too small for the button . Easy fix for me so i just handled that problem in house.

The product came in good condition, and it was very sturdy and well made. It was just a TINY bit stiff when we took it out, so trying to get it into a more natural shape to put on our actor was a little tricky indeed. Otherwise, quick service and very professional communication. Thanks Historical Emporium!

Everything arrived on time for our event with the expedited shipping and the quality of the suit jacket and vest and tie were excellent! The pants were not the correct size , so I think on the next order we would check more closely on the style and the sizing of trousers .Overall very satisfied with this company and it's products. Would use again and would recommend to others

Love this coat, fits like it was hand tailored for me. The price is exceptional, and the delivery was prompt. Before ordering, any questions I had were answered to my satisfaction. This coat will add to my living history presentations for both the late 1800's and early 1900's. I will be a return customer.

This is a great coat, but I ordered in 42 and reordered in 44 and STILL the arm at least 1" too short.

This is a nice, well made, heavy coat; not a cheap costume piece. Ordered a size 50 to fit my 49 inch chest size for a perfect fit! The sleeves are always too long for me by about an inch and need hemming. I wear these coats all the time and just wish they were available in additional colors like a navy blue or burgundy and maybe in some lighter, summer weather fabrics !

This coat is high quality and I'm very happy with it. It is very well made.

I did find this jacket rather large for the size indicated... I had to have mine tailored, although I ordered the size of my chest measurement (38), it was very roomy. Perhaps best for a broad-shouldered gentleman! After some adjustments, it is a wonderful coat, Victorian, but subtle enough to wear every day with modern clothes too. Very heavy fabric, as others have indicated... suited to cool weather. Many thanks for this unique addition to my wardrobe!

Very happy to have a coat to go with the other items in the Sable Collection.

The product is very heavy, but I have no doubt that it is authentic. I don't know how those people lived. I had to send it back because it was too large, and I am just waiting for one to come in in my size.

Inverness capes, and Coburn great coat. Not worn yet. But I know I want to wear different coats depending on my mood.

Quality coat,well made

We attended a Murder Mystery Weekend set in 1890 and I wanted a coat for the occasion. The size was perfect and I really liked the styling. It took me less than five minutes on the website to find what I needed and order it.

Excellent coat, high quality, and perfect fit. However, it was a bit heavier than I wanted and returned it for exchange. The exchange was fast, efficient, and I received it in 3 days, same as the original order. These people understand customer service and I highly recommend the Historical Emporium. I am a frequent HE patron. Love these folks.

Ordered to preform Wedding for My Grand Daughter, fit the bill to the T

Nice coat and had that period look and feel. A good fit for the actor I was building a period costume for who was leaving for a film shoot in Austria. The only problem I found was that the p coat buttonholes are too small for buttons. Very difficult to open and close. Since, the actor will be leaving the coat open the problem did not have to be remedied.

I love the coat. I had to take it to the tailor and have the sleeves take up but otherwise it’s perfect.

Nice quality garment. It looks great on my husband.

My order arrived quickly and I like the skirt and coat. I wore them for Halloween and received many compliments.

This coat is more steampunk than Victorian. I needed Victorian for my impression. It also runs small. As Steampunk it is a really nice coat.

The Madeline Inverness Coat I purchased fits me like a wool glove. Cinching my waist, I could wear it as a dress in late Fall or early Winter back east. I Luv it!

This coat has a ton of style! Relatively lightweight- good for California winters. The sizing is SUPER helpful- normally i wear a MED but due to the chart and the tailored style, i sized up to be more comfortable with modern clothing, and it is GREAT! If i could change ONE thing, it'd be the buttons- they are domed and solid plastic. I understand thpugh- this coat has A LOT of buttons. I will be replacing with flat metal ones to match my style.

The workmanship of this coat is amazing. It is stunning! But best of all, the customer support was fabulous. I bought this coat for my wife, and while ordering a size bigger than she told me she was, the coat was still too small for her. I called and was presently surprised by the customer service. I was able to return the coat for the right size, (2 sizes up!).

This is a extremely well made coat. Good for mildly chilly weather, its a great Fall and costume coat. Only wished they made it bigger like the frock coats.

Excellently put together. The seams are clean and the material is quality. I wore it out to the mall and got countless compliments. The fit was perfect. Just follow the size chart. There are decorative buttons on the shoulders that I didn't love, but they were easy to remove with some scissors (no damage done to the coat. Just pull the extra thread it leaves behind and they come right out without leaving a hole)

Would have been nice if all sizes were available.

I absolutely love this coat, however, it is either cut very small or I have gained a bit of weight, as it is too small and I was unable to wear it to the event I planned to attend. Unfortunately, I cannot return it because it arrived quite wrinkled and I had to have it cleaned. So, I am hoping that somehow I will lose enough weight to fit into it soon.

I really love the coat. I wish it were a little thicker for the winter months but for fall and weather up to about 40 degrees, it should be perfect. Love the button detail and the way it stands out. Subtle Victorian beauty!!! I am so glad I took the large. I am not big, but I do have wider shoulders and the size Large is good. I wish things were made with the wider shoulder for us who have them. The large is good, however about an inch on either side more, would have been even better. No worries, its worth it...

I bought this to complete the outfit. I bought the matching vest and pants a few months ago. It is made by Frontier Classics, which run a little small. Incentive to lose weight!

I loved this coat when I first saw it on HE modeled with some trousers I was interested in. While I tend only to purchase natural fiber fabrics, I was very pleased with the look and feel of this blend! I was especially happy that it is a lighter/medium weight fabric than it may appear in the photos. But it's not an inexpensive feeling lightness -- it has a very nice hand. I already have long coats for cold weather wearing here in the PNW, so this one is absolutely perfect for spring, and even summer and fall. I'll be wearing it a lot! This coat is nicely constructed, and will likely hold up for my lifetime. The only negative is the plastic buttons. For me, they detract from the otherwise elegant look of this coat, but the price point for such a fine garment was very reasonable. I did replace them with some nice leather buttons, which likely would have added a lot to the shipped price, but make a big difference in the overall effect.

Stop Looking Around!!!!! You found it.. now just shop!! The Historical Emporium is THE place to get period clothing and accessories. The quality is outstanding and customer service is very quick to ship and answer any questions you might have about an item. We will be back for more wardrobe items.

The size is a little small but that's OK because I wear it in lieu of a jacket and wear it open. If I was going to wear it as an overcoat I would order a larger size. Light weight for southern living.

The coat is well made and fit my husband beautifully. It was delivered in a timely fashion, much sooner than I anticipated.

Nice length . It is vented which was not in the description. Shoulder were too big for a size 38 so have had them altered at $ 35.00 expense. Col Bob

I really like the Emerson Frock Coat. I usually stick to 100% cotton or wool, but this coat is a very nice blend. The material is soft and comfortable and it has the weight of an average sports coat. It seems to be the same material as the tweed Inverness coat. The flap pockets on the front are functional, not just for show. The detailing is solid. All around, this is a nice, well made Frock coat. I am delighted to have added it to my collection.

Love the coat. Fantastic product and am very excited about wearing it

Coat is well made, fits properly and looks great on. The only negative I might offer is that the nap of the lapel doesn’t seem to lie flat. It may be tailored incorrectly but it might just need a good pressing. I haven’t had a chance to sort it out yet. At any rate good value for the money spent.

Excellent quality coat. Sizing is accurate and the appearance is outstanding. Defininitly great value for the money.

I have been looking for some time for a good looking frock coat. This fits the bill perfectly and the size was spot on. Shipping was fast it looks great. Thank you

Same as above.

Goes well with other old west clothing.

All items ordered were of better quality than I could have imagined. The occasion has not occurred yet. No doubt the clothes will make a statement.

I just wanted to put together a distinctive semi dressy outfit to wear out with friends and family for nice events, so this coat suits my needs perfectly. It's classic, handsome, masculine, very well made and very comfortable. I am going to alter it slightly by having a black satin detailed handkerchief pocket added to the left chest area, and I'll also consider adding a matching pair of black satin trimmed pockets just below the high waist seem. I like the functionality and look of these pockets. The size 46 is what I measured for and is what I ordered, and it fits me perfectly.

Great cut. Fits me like it was tailored. A perfect selection for a fine dinner at the Historic Strater Hotel in Durango.

Just the thing for a nice dinner at the Strter Hotel in Durango. Perfect fit and quality!

Well made and comfortable. Love it!

Love this coat. Great feel and weight. Nice tailored fit. Works great for the look I needed. Delivery was super fast. Love Historical Emporium.

Very sharp and well made. Does not hold in body heat to any extent such that it can be worn in warmer climate situations. Well pleased!

Bought the Callahan frock coat to use during Museum tours of which I am a docent. Received many compliments on my outfit, all of which comes from Historical Emporium. I portrayed a Victorian undertaker for the Halloween season and was told I looked like I fell out of a history book. Couldn't have felt prouder. Heavy weight coat which should keep you fairly warm when the cooler fall weather sets in. I'm happy with the color as it is a rich black and not charcoal. Material is a bit coarse but not a problem. Fit is true to size ordered. Happy with my purchase.

Waited a long time for this, just wow.

My son was so pleased to receive this coat for Christmas. He looks quite dapper. As a tall, slim teen, this style coat really suits him.

Hope he likes it.

Very well made. Heavy frock coat. My correct size is 44R but it was too big in the shoulders. It's such a nice coat I choose to have it altered rather than spend it back.

The coat fit great and I was surprised at the quality. Looks fantastic!

Having been a Civil War reenactor for almost thirty years, in various time periods, I like the look of a frock coat. And wonder why they were ever shortened to the sack suit. The Emporium is my go-to shop for period clothing. I only wish I could afford more!

I purchased a very very nice Emerson Frock Coat - Gray Herringbone Tweed. I love it. It fits like a glove. Fast shipping but very high Custom fees. But still a great experience shopping at Historical Emporium Stores, Thanks.

The Emerson Frock Coat is very well put-together. It's a little heavier than I was expecting. Not too much so but, with a cardigan, would make for a quite reasonable Fall weight overcoat. The inner pocket is a bit higher than one might expect, but not at all difficult to access. Just an adjustment going from my Coburn to this (plus left/right transition). Very happy with the build quality, fit, and finish.

This coat is exactly what I was looking for it is well worth the $$$$

Just what I needed for a slightly less formal frock coat.

As advertised. Great Quality

The coat was exactly as advertised. The fit is great, and the material is high quality. Order with confidence.

Lots of nice detailing in the back.

What a very nice, well made coat! Upon receiving, this coat is exactly as it shows in the pictures. It hangs perfectly and all seems are tight. The material is very nice, tuxedo quality. Glad we ordered this coat. If all other items Historical Emporium offers are of this high quality, I'll definitely buy here again!!

Looks great. Great fit.

The Callahan frock coats are the best value frock coats that the Emporium offers; I have one in each colour!

The frock coat is well made, looks good and a fair price for what it is. I am happy with the coat, but wish there were a few changes. The padding in the shoulders feels a bit too stiff and bulky, something with a more natural shoulder shape would be nice. I was also a bit disappointed with the weight of the coat. The site does state the weight clearly, so this was more built up in my head, but a coat with this design, but made of a heavy material (such as wool), would be amazing. All in all, a good coat and I look forward to seeing what other coats Gentleman's Emporium releases in the future.

The coat is nice over all, well made. But I expected(wished) more rich looking fabric. Also because of thin fabric , I can see through the metal part of covered buttons. I think it may be easy to torn. I wish that more measurements are available when purchasing.

Good fabric, nice details on the back vent of the jacket. This gives it a tailored look even though it fits a spectrum of sizes. We were very pleased.

This is a great coat, fits well, and looks rather dashing. An excellent way to show your Browncoat allegiance.

I purchased this coat for my husband as a birthday gift. He loves the coat and it fits perfectly. We have purchased other items from Historical Emporium and have never been disappointed. I was pleasantly surprised when the coat arrived sooner than estimated.

The coat is great, better than I expected. The fast service was a plus. Truly 5 star!!!!!

I've worn this coat a few times and i can honestly say it really does turn heads.This coat is already one of my favorites.

Beautiful Coat, Nice Fit, perfect for Theatre!

We were very pleased with the quality and price of our frock coat. I'd highly recommend this coat and this site to anyone!

I purchased this frock coat for my husbands birthday and we could not be happier with it. It arrived in a box packed with enough paper packaging to cushion. The size chart was very accurate so I'm glad we measured before ordering. The detail pleating in the back was very crisp and all stitching throughout the garment is very neat. We recommend this coat to anyone looking for an accurate historical frock coat. It has really taken my husbands steampunk attire to the next level.

I love this jacket! It's the perfect length and it fits great. Very cool and casual.

I already left a review for the tan chore coat which prompted me to buy the blue one a few weeks later. Not much else can be said about this chore coat other than that the texture of both coats are very different but equally impressive. It’s almost as if they’re two totally different chore coats. The blue chore coat is a more casual friendly, coat while you can really dress up the tan coat with a more semiformal look. This is one of the best chore coats being sold on the market at a phenomenal price. The construction is top notch, the coat itself has a very nice heftines to it, and I love the taper waist line, which really shows off the physique. As always historical emporium never disappoints.

The shipping time was very fast. The fit and finish of the coat is excellnt. The historic styling is spot on. The quality of manufacture is again excellent. I highly recomend this coat for both modern use and second half of the 19th century historic impression. I have bought clothing for historic shooting events with Single Action Shooting Society and National Congress of Old West Shootists, for many years with Historical Emporium. I have yet to be disappointed, and have only praise for the clothing I have purchased. You will not go wrong with this company.

I receved this coat faster than expected. I checked it over very well and the qualitty is excellent. I have yet to wear it , but if the multitude of other clothing that I have purchased at Historical Emporeum, I'm sure that I will be well pleased.
