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.

For Victorian Dickens on the Strand. Perfect fit. Nice quality.

I looked straight out of 1900! Great Quality

I'm 6'4 and regular size shirts are short in the sleeves. This tall size shirt fit just right. Thanks for having tall clothing.

Old time clothes are classy. People nowadays don't know how to dress. Thanks to Historical Emporium, I can achieve the look I desire. Either modern-day or historically.

The shirt was supposed to be and feel midiam. But it felt large. Didn't fit me right.

I ordered this and several other items for my daughter's upcoming wedding. The entire package arrived several days earlier than expected, and I was skeptical of the purchase, but once receiving all the items I realized the material quality was high the fit was perfect and the price was great. I could not have bought a suit for the same price. I am amazed at the outstanding customer service from historical Emporium. I even had to change my pants size day after I ordered and it was corrected and I received the proper fit.

I paid for fast delivery and it was on my door step the next day! Tried it on the actor yesterday and he was very happy to have a proper shirt to wear for the show!!!! Thank you for making life a lot easier for me!

I like Frontier Classics shirts except that the sleeves are usually too short for me. I’m over 6’ 2” with longer than average arms and legs. The fact that Historical Emporium stocks extra long, or ‘Tall’, versions of the shirts is perfect. I haven’t found them anywhere else (which is why I bought the shirt from them rather than from a supplier in the UK). I wish the long versions of Frontier Classics shirts were more widely available because this one I’ve bought is very good.

I enjoy this shirt. looks good with costumes, washes well and fits well.

I do period recreations and Steampunk cosplay. I needed a shirt for a new cosplay not to dissimilar to the office outfits worn on The Gilded Age on HBO Max. This shirt is very close to what I was looking for and the price was not bad. It matched the frock and waist coat I got for the cosplay very well. Understand in period, many white shirts were off white and not stark white. I love the texture and color difference. If you are looking for a more casual Late Victorian/Edwardian shirt, this will do the trick.

One of my favorite shirts. Fits perfectly, and looks great. Good quality, and great for those who want that true western 1800's look. It also looks great with my antique 1879 A.W. Co. Waltham with key pocket watch. Would recommend!

Online comments said the shirt fits on the large size so I went with the fit chart and bought a medium instead of the usual large and it fits perfect. Plenty of shoulder room and arm length is exact. Beautifully made. Shipping was really fast to Canada.

Very good quality, nice and breezy and handy for summer. And the collar style makes it versatile, so you're paying for two different shirts in one. It's quite baggy around the stomach but a waistcoat takes care of that. I ordered 2XL and it fits me perfectly, which is pretty good for something I bought online. With the collars starched up, I think it probably looks best with a deluxe western-style bowtie or a cravat.

For a 2xl I found the neck to be quite small, but still satisfactory.

Great fit. It works with my different period outfits.

Great shirt perfect fit!!

It fit me great. I have a pretty thick neck (17.5" ish) and found no discomfort.

Excellent style for the era but quality of fabric is thin and could of been better. Happy with it otherwise

The shirt was as described. It was of much higher quality than I expected. There is so much fraud on the Internet. This was a great find.

like very much this shirt very pleasant to wear and the collarpositionable alternately in the victorian or edwardian style suits me very well.

The Sinclair Edwardian shirt is perfect! Beautifully made and very comfortable and fits.

I wanted to get a comfy yet slightly stylish shirt for a Steampunk convention and this one is perfect. I live in a hot climate and tend to get overheated easily. This shirt did a good job of keeping me comfortable. It's loose but not so billowy that it looks like a pirate shirt. The collar is just right for a casual look or a slightly dressier look when paired with a vest and tie - which is what I wanted. It's held-up really well in the washing machine. No loss of shape. Great shirt!

This shirt makes me look more like a Victorian gentleman, especially when I have the collar stand up. Its a good addition to my wardrobe and I always feel like a Victorian gentleman when I put it on.

Nice sturdy shirt, that is comfortable to wear. Size does run big but I do like my shirts to be roomy.

Pros- Well made garment. Made from quality fabric. Fast Delivery Cons- Wish it came in a TALL. The Natural color is yellow not ivory or off white. Hope you can add the shirt in an ivory or off white color.

The shirt fit well and it's made of very strong sturdy material

I love this shirt. The material and cut make it good for dressy occasions, but it isn't overly formal and great for everyday wear, especially with a four-in-hand or bow tie. Like many of your products, it's a staple of my daily wardrobe. Now my eye is on either the white or blue one for summer.

The shirt was high quality, sized correctly and beautifully finished. Overall, I was very pleased with the item!

I purchased this for myself, though I am a woman. It is beautifully made, and the fabric is magnificent. I love the collar, it is just what I had hope for. I can't recommend this item more highly.

Fits great, very comfortable and exactly what my outfit needed.

Wearing with a kilt for day wear. Good quality. Lightning fast shipping!

I give mixed reviews on the Viceroy shirt. I paid $94 to have it delivered. It is a comfortable cotton shirt but that's where the complements end. The sleeves were 38" long - I needed 32". You would think for that price they would have better options for an XL shirt.

Very nice shirt!!

The shirt was of a very high quality Material. It was very comfortable to wear ans ease to clean. I am so glad I found your Web Site, I have passed it on to our other Docents at the Allen County Museum, In Lima, Ohio. Thank you for your prompt deliver of my items.

Great high collar shirt.

This shirt works perfectly with my Victorian costume for Community Theatre.

The size of historically cut shirts can be tricky, as the HE site does say, but it means that I have to get the sleeves shortened to fit me before I wear this. The cloth is lovely quality, and it looks great with the black stock.

I love the material and style of the shirt. Packaging was great and felt adequate (perhaps better) to protect the item from anything that fate would throw at it. I especially love the fluted chest fabric, as it looks very dashing.

I ordered this for my son who was in a school play that required Edwardian costuming. The shirt was very authentic and looked fantastic with the rest of the outfit that was also ordered from Historical Emporium.

I am using this shirt for a production. It is perfect

Very nice shirt

This isn’t a costume shirt, it’s a dress shirt designed to the style of a former era, so I expected a lot and it is nearly perfect. Purchased for a Regency/Bridgerton costume to wear with vest and stock. My husband has sensory issues (autism, ADHD) so nothing but a cotton or linen shirt works. This was the only 100% cotton one I found. Seams and buttonholes are dress shirt quality, as expected. No loose threads. Collar has a loop on the back to secure a tie. Collar is double thickness and opaque, stands up on its own but will need ironing and starching. Body of the shirt is slightly translucent - without a vest, an undershirt will be necessary, but it will be cool in summer. Cut is era-appropriately boxy to loose. Lots of ease across the back with pleating. My husband is a chest size 44, but shoulders are 46 so we ordered XL. Turns out he could have sized down to L, as the shoulders are 1/2” past his natural shoulder, but as Regent shoulders were drop shoulders anyway, we’re keeping it. My husband is 6’, but with a 31” inseam so his torso fits like a 6’2” person. The length is perfect, and even at 6’4” you likely could get away with it, though it may be a little harder to keep tucked in is you’re doing more than walking and sitting. We’re very pleased with the shirt and I suspect he’ll look for other occasions and ways to wear it, because it’s so comfy. Photos are hung up wet to drip dry. Relatively wrinkle free, but needs ironing and collar...

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.

I interpret as an undertaker in Ohio in 1898. We provide a variety of events including working/living in a 19th century village. I fully recommend this shirt as it looks very good/authentic and it's comfortable.

fit and quality was spot on

Definitely get the shirt heavily starched or make your own from rice flour. The collar should always be very stiff.

My husband is a tall thin guy and the small was a perfect fit for him. It looks great and the buttons and stitching is very high quality. Would definitely buy again from these guys.

Great shirt

Very nice looking and comfortable shirt that is well made in a good quality cotton. Size is a bit bigger than expected, but after a cold wash and a tumble dry it shrunk to a perfect fit.

This is not a cheap replica or tuxedo shirt. It's high quality fabric and craftsmanship. Very please worth the extra money

I am into Steampunk, and this is the conclusion of attire I needed in its creation. I had several other shirts that just couldn't fit the bill for various different reasons. When I put the shirt on with my other clothes and then finally the face mask I created, the shirt gave an added debonair look that made me say only one thing. "EXCELSIOR!!"

Loved the fit and the style and the %100 washed cotton. Exactly what I wanted.

I wear weird old fashioned clothing like this on a daily basis. It's just who I am, so I was very excited to finally be able to add this shirt to my collection. But anyway, this shirt is wonderfully made. It very lightweight and breathable and feels nice on the skin. I have no complaints.

This shirt fits true to the sizing guide and is extremely comfortable.

I needed a shirt like this with a nice crisp high collar to cement my outfit for a Victorian era party. Its a pullover, with a quarter button up. Don't worry about fumbling around with the button holes because they are perfect. Throw a cravat around you're neck and you'll look like you stepped straight out of the late 1800's. The cuffs are also pretty rigid. The sleeves run a little long but you can throw some sleeve garters on to really take things up a notch.

The Coulter Shirt is great for both casual & dress up daily wear! Really like the rounded collar look with either top buttoned or open collar look. Have received multiple positive comments!! I'll definitely be purchasing more apparel in the near future! Thank you Historical Emporium!!

Bought this shirt for a child's pioneer themed birthday party. I was very satisfied with the quality of the shirt. The fabric and metal buttons give it an authentic feel. Shirt is to size so buy it in whatever shirt size you wear.

This shirt is of excellent quality and is exactly as advertised. Love it and will wear it during my cowboy shoots.

The tag on this pull-over shirt calls it a Shiloh. sounds so historical! Heavier-than-usual cotton weave feels comfortable with a tee-shirt or tank top under it. This shirt can take a beating in any reenacting situation. Classic 19th century design fits right in with CAS situations. Add a western tie and vest for those times when a cowboy wants to spruce up a might. I wear a lamb skin leather waistcoat with it. Not so much historical 19th century western as common in the old western TV shows from the 50's & 60's. This shirt can also be seen in those old western shows and movies. It's a tough, yet good looking design that belongs in your cowboy wardrobe.

great shirt

I love my Coulter Shirt. Its authentic looks and confort are a smashing addition to my old west cowboy git up. I look like I stepped out from 1880!

Authentic looking period shirt!!

I bought this shirt in natural and tan stripe, and the look of both is superb. I actually preferred this striped one in appearance. However, the fabric was different from the natural. I found it too course, as i have sensitive skin. So, I sent in back, no big deal. But I think a washing and a wearer who prefers a tougher fabric will love this. The natural, on the other hand... that was a keeper.

I really like the shirt. My only complaint is that it is not permanent press. It is otherwise very attractive and well made.

trés belle chemise qui correspond parfaitement à la description. trés agréable à porter dans un esprit old west. taille grand. prendre plutôt une taille en dessous. je recommande +++ ce site. trés professionnel. envoie rapide. malheureusement taxe ++ à la douane.

I bought this intending to use it as part of my intrepid explorer steampunk costume, but it's so comfortable and such a great fit I've worn it to work several times. Moral: don't limit your thinking. I suspect many Emporium products can be worn on 'non-costume' occasions.

excellent quality and perfect fit

Ordered this shirt. Wore it to a function with a vest and bow tie. I seriously can't see why I would ever wear another shirt. It is comfortable, stylish, and of a quality I seriously never expected. After I wore it I actually sat down and inspected it.....every stich, button and seam. I just couldn't believe I finally found THE shirt, but alas, it was true. I found it. FANTASTIC quality. I will be ordering many more and donating most of what I own (shirtwise). If you are even THINKING of ordering, trust me...just do it. You will thank me later. As for Bowties, the "kicked back" collar melds with them perfectly. Thank you so much for my shirt. Please think about doing an Olive stripe....(favorite color). Kevin

5' 9" and 170 lbs here. Large fits great. A touch longer in the sleeves than a normal modern shirt, but the onlooker wouldn't notice. Makes it look correct for reenactments too.

I was a little disappointed in the blue Liam shirt because I also have the navy blue color which I like but the stile of the lighter blue is different doesn't seem to be the same fabric and the front down the buttons where there is a little trim piece needs another button it gaps when you sit down

Very nice shirt from maker Lee Valley in Ireland. Prayers to Irish during this troubling time.

Classic car event

A simple but authentic work shirt .... nice quality and built to last ... looks the part....many thanks.

Having purchased a few flannel shirts now, this one is of a much different material. It is thinner and I am hoping it will make a nice shirt for when it is warm out. Not having a conventional collar, I have found it looks very dressy while buttoned all the way up, relieving me of having to wear a tie in dress-clothes situations.

My daddy likes 'old timey' western shirts & they're hard to find. This fits perfectly & he really likes it.

I west this with modern pants and for the classic hoedown. Great fit, classic look. I love the collar too.

Great Fit and quality. Very comfortable.

Top quality. Very pleased

Hello: I must tell you I was really surprised at the quality of the shirt and it fitted like it was tailored for me. The measurements were spot on. It is a beautiful shirt, and true to a clothing pattern back in the 1880's. I am truly pleased and will buy from your company again in the near future. Thanks,

This shirt arrived really quickly to me in the U.K. A nice style and very comfortable to wear, attracted good comments from family and friends alike, as commented by another customer review you probably couldn't get away with wearing a tie due to the collar size but that personally causes me no issues,overall very pleased with my purchase and I hope the reverse style 'Earp Shirt' is soon available in my size.

Officially my favorite shirt! Beautiful!

This is my favorite shirt and it is a unique one. I''ve received more comments on this shirt than any. It is a good Sunday church shirt as well as a dinner on Saturday night shirt. It is also a head turner in restaurants. Beautiful shirt.

I wore this shirt to work the other day and got compliments on it. I'm a little overweight, so it's good to have a shirt that won't come untucked. Plus, I like the style.

This is a very nice looking shirt. Very classy. I also have the white on black version of this shirt as well. You'll look very sharp wearing this Bad Boy. The only regret I have with this shirt is how thin the material is.

I would normally wear XL to get the neck closure but wear L if I didn't need the collar to be fastened. These shirts are generously cut (but not too big) so I can get a great fitting shirt in size L that still buttons up at the neck comfortably. Good quality as well.

I am replacing the first one I got. Had it for 5 yrs and wore it quite often. I actually wore it out. So I figured I needed to replace it, before they stop making it. Great shirt.

The shirt was purchased for a film shoot, yes I am an Actor and have been in several films and CMT Videos. The size was as expected and appearance was high quality.

Thanks for the clothing they fit and look great !!

Historical interpretation

Back in the 80s I used to do a lot of Civil War reenactments and had several shirts similar to these work shirts that I was able to get from the sutlers we would buy uniforms from. I always loved the way they fit and looked but had not been able to find since them. I found these, and ordered one, just to see the quality, and how they fit. Once it arrived, I was amazed, and happy. They look great with a vest, whether I am playing music, or riding my mule! I now have one of almost every color!

Great service, great clothes! Period authentic! Fit the part! Super durable, not just looks but wear this gear while working the property as well! Highly recommend. Jason Williams Moulton, AL US

the stitching is Wonderful

I own a good half dozen of these shirts ...love the look and feel and they are very comfortable to wear. For no special occasion as I dress in this kind of shirt everyday! But then I know I was born in the wrong time anyway......

This is going to be a gift for Santa himself, AS HE LOVES THESE PUFFY SHIRTS when wearing his vest overtop of the work shirt. I believe I will be looking for a few more for next yera and the year after that.

I ordered 3 different shirts and vest/ pants. All great quality. Clothes run true to size *however* - I am barrel chested. My neck size is a 2X but I needed a 3X to fit my chest. This would not be an issue for most folks so just a note in case it does matter to you.

The shirt looks exactly like the photo. Nice fabric. I like the puffy sleeves. I have not washed it yet. I hope it does not shrink.

Plastic buttons are out of true period, but works.

We purchased this shirt and two others for a pioneer re-enactment. Very well made shirt.

Great quality

I bought both Trapper and Fundamental Work Shirts and my review/opinion for both is the same. Well made shirt. I expect it will last a very long time. Relatively thick cotton material, but comfortable and cool, not hot. I bought size Xlarge and it fit better after washing. Minor shrinking after washing but it now fits perfectly. The shirt is meant to be puffy and large, and I am very glad I bought it. Only complaint is the Trapper shirt collar is always wrinkled so I keep it unbuttoned which makes it look better and not obviously wrinkled. I could iron the collar but I am too lazy to do that. Oh and shipping was very fast. I think I got the shirts in 2-3 days.
