This item is intended for St. Patrick's day.

The material quality and fit are amazing. I've gotten compliments on the look every time I've worn my vests from the Historical Emporium. I intend to add more vests to my wardrobe!

It is a perfect fit and well made. Very impressed. I will definitely buy more from this company

Didn't expect the reaction I got, co- workers wanted to know the source of my purchase.

I needed a green vest to match my shirts. This vest fits the bill, comfortable, durable, and fits well. Received compliments from the first time I wore it

GREAT FOR DRESSING UP YOUR ATTIRE.

Was concerned about quality as I had never ordered from them before. No need, very high quality and very happy with the look.

I have several of these vests from Historical Emporium. I wear them at casual business events, travelling, etc. With a white shirt (some period/historical; black slacks, boots) o look smart but a bit unconventional (I'm in IT :). The vests are lightweight, fit nicely (I leave them unbuttoned). I'm 6', but thin/lean build (28" waist) so small works. They wear well; some are 7+ years old, only fraying a bit. With the collection I have its a great wardrobe

Great quality.

I really like this vest! It is very well made and looks good. I will be ordering more vests from here because they have a very good selection.

No special occasion for this fine vest. I have many vests- this vest moved to the top of my favorite vest list. Love this vest!

I was looking for a straight bottom vest. I probably would have bought this all cotton beauty in sable, but my size was sold out. NO REGRETS! This is not only a soft, well-sized, extremely well-made NOT from China garment, it is really a complement to all my clothes, (most of which are HE products, due to their overall quality). Seriously, one of the best "side features", it is well-lined and just heavy enough not to wrinkle whether riding or sitting for long periods. Frankly, I'll bet any color will be a sound purchase for you, so don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. I did when I bought this Sand Mountain vest, because til now, I've been wearing a black goat hide, pointed front vest. My highest recommendation on this garment.

Excellent neutral color tone can wear both classy and casual. Well made. Plenty of functional pockets. Two thumbs up!

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of this vest. Excellent construction and fit. I love it !

this is the third vest I have tried to fit and again it is way to large in arm pits. fits around middle but arm hole poke out forward. looks weird..

I ordered this vest in Medium, which is long enough to wear with Victorian high waist trousers or modern blue jeans. This is a perfect compliment to wear with the Sable Frock Coat and Trousers, and it is dressy enough to wear with modern dark brown suit or laid-back in dark brown jeans and leather jacket. I love the extra pockets, which are deep enough to carry lots of useful items.

This was my first time ordering from Historical Emporium. I must say that I am greatly pleased. The quality of the vest far exceeded my expectations. Well-detailed, and it fits fine. I was also greatly impressed with the speed of delivery. I swear, I barely had it ordered, and it arrived. Thank you!

An excellent product, an excellent service.

Took a chance on this vest and am definitely satisfied. Very nice looking and well constructed. Thank you!

Liked the vest works well with my re-enactments. Good fit and good price.

Never before have I received so many compliments, it's amazing the difference a vest can make.

Well made, warm, comfortable, great value and always receives compliments when worn.

This Farnsworth vest is another amazing add to my new wardrobe. And the size is perfect. Thank you so much.

I am impressed with the quality of this vest. I was hoping that I’d get something that I would be able to touch up and use in a few weeks. But this baby arrived in perfect condition! No loose threads, no button holes that are too tight, no problems at all! The fabric makes it so versatile. I wear the vest without a jacket, and I wear it with a suit jacket. No matter how you wear it, it just looks classy!

Great vest for the price. Good fit and verry dapper looking.

Nice vest. Dressy and classy looking.

Excellent quality an fit 5 star

Excellent quality an fit 5 star

The vest was exactly what I was lookin for. Sizing is precisely what I was expecting. Quality appears to be above average and I expect several years of use from this new vest.

Looks very nice and fits well. I dress in a casual style at work with these style of vest: open, with white shirt, no tie, and black slacks. The only reason for not giving 5-stars would be because the back fastening strap/belt tends to come loose from its buckle and hang down. Easy to fix with a quick tack with threads. They are largely ornamental.

I needed this vest for a period-style vaudeville show. It can be difficult to judge how such a stylish vest will look on a large man, so I was a little bit apprehensive. But to my considerable relief it really looks quite good on me (at least my wife says so! And so did the show's director). The vest is made of sturdy, easy maintenance fabric and the subtle floral pattern keeps it understated without being lifeless. In other words, perfect for the stage. I received helpful notifications regarding the processing and shipping of the order and it arrived in a very timely manner. I'm definitely a satisfied customer and I'm sure I'll be back!

This vest was delivered in only a few days. It was exactly as described. It fit perfectly and made my outfit. I am greatly pleased and will order more. Great company to do business with.

Perfect fit and really good looking

Very nice vest. Super light material so you won't get hot. Very nice subtle design, which everybody complimented on! Very pleased

Just beautiful Love it

I have not had an opportunity to wear the vest in public yet but I modeled it for my wife and she gave it two thumbs up.

Sizes run very small. Other then that nice!

I love this vest, just what I was looking for. Very well made like a nice suit, Dress quality not costume quality. Material has a great feel to it. Fits as anticipated.

lovely vest fits great and well made and fast shipping

Looks great, high quality, and great fit. I'm 5' 11" and have a typical middle-aged man's "executive" build. The XL is slightly large but it's just what I need to be comfortable all day.

This vest has proven itself through regular use and is an excellent addition to my wardrobe.

This vest, as with all the vests I've ordered, is comfortable and functional. I wear it as everyday wear and it's nice enough to wear to church with my Sunday go to meeting clothes.

Very well made! Extremely pleased with this. Have worn it several times to pretty formal occasions. The fabric is wonderful too!

A well made, handsome vest.

Excellent quality for the price. Received in a very timely manner. The only down side is that it is a little tighter across the chest than other vests I have ordered that were listed as the same size. If you are between sizes, you might be much better off ordering the next size larger.

The vest and matching items made for a perfect historical outfit.

fits perfect

Speedy delivery. Excellent Product. Thank You

Keeping the old west alive!!! It fits perfect looks great, period correct.

My son loves vest and all of your clothes may be costume but it all is high quality fabric And style. Thank you! Good looking Phd Dr Kramer and my other son Dr Kramer Looked so handsome for his wedding (I bought2 brown and black vest collarless)

Love how this fits me and just what I wanted

Very nice. Excellent Quality as usual

I now own and wear daily several pairs of 1800s trousers and have acquired this, my second vest. Have never been a vest fan but I am now--this and my other vest are in daily use now and look spectacular--very well made, too.

This is my second time buying an "Old West" vest for my costume as a "Living History" re-enactment player. The first attempt was at another web site and the sizing turned out to be an educated guess, it didn't fit. At the Emporium the sizing instructions were accurate and it fits perfectly! I also appreciate that I can purchase the components of my character/outfit one at a time and still have that continuity that the whole outfit looks like it was purchased together.

Though the vest is old design it’s looks great with jeans or wearing to work. Fits well. Good quality. Will be buying another one.

This is a well made vest. The material is a heavy duty cotton and feels like very soft canvas. I gave it 4 stars only because of the plastic buttons. They are heavy duty buttons, but I would have paid more money for a vest with buttons that were more period correct (such as wood or another natural material). Also, the tag on the vest says "Gunslinger Vest" and the brand on the label is Frontier Classics. So it is designed as a western style vest. I was wanting something in a Victorian style to wear with my bowler hat, but it will also go well with my western hat. I ordered a size Large and it fits true to size. I wear a size 42 suit and it was a little big, but was able to adjust it down to my size with the tab belt on the back. Plenty of pockets.

Quality is spectacular and the shipping is as if I walked into the store and purchased it, delivery from the west coast was quick like I've never seen. Customer service top notch, size of clothing was as described. Best to get one size larger as with all dress clothes due to the high waist. Best clothing company ever!!

Great fit and quality. Very comfortable. This is one of my favorites. I wear it often to work.

I have purchase numerous shirts, pants ,and vests prior to this purchase. Every piece of clothing has been sized correctly, very well made, and of excellent materials. This vest is no exception to that praise. The shipping service was incredibly fast this time. I do not hesitate to recomend this company and their wares and have numerous times to numerous people. I am a Single Action Shooter Society competitor ( Cowboy action shooting ) . All of the clothing has survived long rugged wear on the shooting range and a great deal of physical activity, with little or no signs of wear. When I want period correct clothing there is no other choice, in my mind -- HISTORIC EMPORIUM

This is a great quality, great-looking vest. Sewing quality is outstanding. The material is thick and soft. Buttons are quality, too. I normally would fall into the Large sizing, which I ordered initially, but had to re-order a Medium, which fit perfectly.

Wearing this vest is not only comfortable, but remarkably historic. I have only received compliments when I wore it - everyone has asked me more about it, and I've told them right away about the Emporium. Works superbly with a cravat and a pocket watch. Hopefully, one day, the mainstream fashion can return to this golden age! We can only try.

Once again, great items and first rate customer service, coming through when my horrible local post failed me. I have bought from them before and will continue to do so again.

Great match with the Brewster frock jacket .... stepping back in time at monthly Virginia City activities ....

Already have the Brush Cotton Sack Coat so I knew the matching vest was going to be perfect, Good fit for me, I like the four pockets.

My husband loves his new vest. The brushed cotton is a very heavy quality material. The vest's short waist makes it very comfortable for daily wear.

I am very happy with my purchase. The vest was top-quality, looked great and I wore it as part of a Halloween western get-up. But I think I will be wearing it all the time now!

I ordered size XL since I wear 46R coat. The vest fits very nicely and looks real good. Quality is outstanding and the service, including packaging, was excellent. I'm very happy with the purchase.

This is my wedding outfit, period accurate because I am getting married in an 1870 Stage and Pony Express stop. Very excited.

Quality was fantastic and arrived very quickly. Exactly what I was looking for.

Of very high quality and enjoyed by most those who I've shown it to, bound to be a show stealer this Halloween!

Surprised at the heavy weight cotton, less akin to costume wear, more like every day work vest. Buttons are large and tight but will probably loosen up over time.

This vest was a birthday gift as I recently returned in-person to my office job. I’ve always loved dressing up for work, but this (incredibly comfortable and durable) vest has elevated my style game to an entirely new level!!! Everything it’s advertised to be and more!

These Livingston Brushed Vest are always a winner. My actor needed two(2)in Black. Vests were in stock and fit perfect. Thanks to the adjustment strap on back of vest. Always a great feature and so very helpful.

All of the items I have received have met or been above expectation. The only issue is this particular vest is too short for my frame. But I do like the style and quality of it! Respectfully, Nathaniel Branch

I ordered a vest, and I was EXTREMELY happy with the product I received. It was shipped VERY quickly, and it was very high quality. I would absolutely order again from them!

The vest is for a mannequin who will be selling popcorn in a display. He will look great in this vest! Thank you for very fast shipping!

You're a heel, if ya don't buy this vest! Don'tcha know that if you're not in the right outfit that ya could get really give your sugar to a sweet moll. Don't be a sucker chum, get your flashy new threads from these fella's because they're on the level. Fiddlesticks to any would be competitors, there knock off threads are applesauce. Only GE has the goods that will have you on the make!

Very nice vest, very pleased with the quality as well as the turn around time with shipping.

The vest I bought is exactly what I needed and looks great.

Very pleased with the vest. Plus the small pockets really do work. the last vest that I bought else were,I had to cut open the pocket & saw a small pocket in by hand, for my pocket watch. I'm sure to be a hit with my vest,and straw hat at the next car show

Ordered for my son for Christmas, was pleasantly surprised at the quality of fabric. The fit was true to size, and my son was very happy.

Wore this as soon as I got it for a Carnival themed wedding. Awesome! Wish you had a bigger size, or it was bigger in the back though.

The vest is exactly as described. Good value plus quick service.

The vests are good quality and very share looking.

This vest is surely a show stopper. Got it for a production of Chicago and it always gets the "wow" from the audience. Makes for an awesome Barbershop Quartet outfit as well. Also, it arrived like lightning, so all around great products and service!

I needed this vest within a few days. I paid the rush, called them the next day and a human answered (!!). He was very helpful and assured me I would receive it in time which I did! It looked great and I was very pleased.

I'm a tall guy and a big guy , and have always had problems finding vests that I am comfortable in and that even look like they fit. They almost always feel to short in length and there is always too much space between the bottom of the vest and the waist of my pants . I bought this vest in the 3XT , and even though they were a special order and took a few days longer to get , when it arrived it fit PERFECTLY .

Excellent fit! Bought the whole suit. Had the trousers hemmed and cuffed by a local tailor, very happy with it all. coat and vest are perfect fits. Good material, wish it would be just a slight bit thicker but overall pleased. Finally a nice suit!

I bought this to wear on a cruise which sponsored a Roaring 20s evening. Fits great and looks good for the occasion.

Classic car event

After much searching I found the perfect vest here. Fits well and is very well made. I gave gotten several vests from other places, and that is not the case. I couldn't have asked for better than I got here. And I will definately order a couple more!

My second vest of this style (outgrew the first, it's still in good shape). Quality of everything I have bought from Historical Emporium is excellent. After ordering I learned I would need it earlier than expected and standard shipping might not work. I called customer service to see if I could upgrade to expedited shipping. Customer Service looked up my order and assured me it would arrive on time with standard shipping, in fact it arrived a day earlier than expected. They could have charged me the extra shipping fee and I would have never known the difference. It is so nice to do business with an honest company that offers great products.

Love this vest. It's been hard for me to find a vest that will fit. I'm 5'9" and wear a 2xlt shirt due to having a bit longer torso. I just wish it was available in more colors..I wear it to church and any occasion that calls for a more formal attire...

Wedding, great quality and the perfect flair of class!

excellent quality and frankly better than i expect given the price. I'll shop here again,

Made just a little big width. I will have to take it for alteration. It is a nice authentic vest for any occasion.

The lighter weight but woolen mix makes for a good semi-formal wear. Added a modern point collar shirt with a tie and collar clip for a routine bread and butter outfit. Cut and collar were perfect.

I tend to grit my teeth if I have to spend more than $50 for a vest, but I've got to admit it's very well made. Quality material and stitching. So much so, that after I received the double breasted herringbone vest, I was so impressed with it that I bought the single breasted herringbone vest as well.

Its pretty dark for being "gray". I do like the metallic buttons and the quality overall is very nice, but should be considering its 3x the $ of every other vest I looked at. Biggest complaint and very disappointed that the backing was a black linen material, fairly thick and heavy which made it very hot. All the pictures showed a light gray backing which was highly desired to match with the rest of the wedding attire. Unfortunate.

Exactly what I wanted and the craftsmanship and attention to detail is amazing! I actually ordered the wrong size (first time customer) so I sent it back for an exchange. The turn around on the exchange was lightning fast!

just liked the color

We were very happy with this vest, it was historically accurate to the time period and looked good when it arrived

Very nice feeling fabric in a very good fit.

Very nice feeling fabric in a very good fit.

Quality is excellent, fit is excellent.

I bought this vest after being less than impressed with my 'old fashioned' vest from another retailer. I absolutely love this vest! It has a full cotton, tan back to it. The cut is great. Going for a bit of a settler look for my wedding on my side, and this one helped me hit the mark. Strong recommendation for the look and quality.

Beautiful vest great fit!!

The last night of a planned overseas vacation, we will be celebrating our anniversary at a fairly posh restaurant in London. They absolutely require men in long sleeves and would like a tie and jacket. Not wanting to lug a jacket all over England, I purchased this herringbone vest for him. With dress pants and a bold tie, the vest turns from Old West to English Country Gentleman. We are pleased with the construction and the color.

There are times when my Harris Tweed sport coat is too heavy. This fits the occasion perfectly. Very classy.

I had a Great Gatsby party to go to and I needed a vest to go with my suit. This was exactly what I needed AND, it is also what I wanted to add to my wardrobe. Love it and received many compliments

The vest fit great and the quality is, damn, good. The back of the vest is a light color and different material which was the only thing was like, "ehhhh" about. But great vest!

Arrived quickly without incident. The vest looks awesome, like one of my tailored vests. Quality really exceeded my expectation.
