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.

Excellent fit! 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'm happy with the coat. It is cut too slim around the belly and unfortunately there is not enough cloth left to expand. We're not talking big belly, but I haven't had that hourglass figure since I was 18. I removed the shoulder pads. I appreciated the incredible hulk look, but it was not appropriate. Small changes would make it a perfect product.

Bought for a stage costume. Quick shipping.

Costume lab coat. Good fabric, decent construction. Cut very generously- full in the waist (there is a belt in the back to take in some of the fullness) and the sleeves are straight cut and wide at the cuffs. Standing collar is rather tall and has some body to it so it won't quickly roll or collapse. A very good costume piece , large enough to wear over a sweater or jacket, which has much possibility to be tailored for a better fit

Definitely Measure Yourself Instead of Assuming! I'm a shorter, curvier person who likes a bit of wiggle room in my clothes. I've been wanting this for ages, and when I finally got it I ordered the wrong size not once, but twice! Why? Because I'm used to always getting a 3x/4x , and then the 3x was too big, so I went to med/large, which was just a barely too small to close! And finally, I got the perfect size (XL/2X), which fits PERFECTLY. I can now live my stylish mad scientist dreams, and look absolutely amazing doing so. This labcoat looks nice on the body, making a great silhouette, and makes the user -- or me, in this case -- feel confident. It's amazing quality, too!

Fits perfectly, made well, No complaints.

Wow! I am extra happy with the coat. The materials (fabric and buttons) are quality and the construction is very professional. It FITS!!! Yeah. I love Halloween and first time since childhood that I will have a costume I love and it FITS! Thanks.

It fits the 3x/4x is true its true. Being a big person it's always a crap shoot when ordering something like this when I go to the event I'll take some photos. Extremely happy.

You tired of the back and forth with amazon. Poor quality, runing late, and lack of durability. These is the answer. It has a great thickness balanced well with the wieght . I followed the instructions on sizing and it fits perfectly. Buy these guy you will not regret it, don't be fooled buy the others. This one is for keeps.

The quality of the coat is well worth the money payed for it. It's made from good material and you can tell this isn't some crappy costume you would buy at a store. I bought a size small and thought that even then it might be a bit too big for me but it fit great, although a little long (seeing as I'm only 5'4"/female) it's not an issue. If you are looking for something like this I definitely recommend buying it from this seller, you wont be disappointed and will most likely be buying something that will last a long time and make many awesome memories no matter what occasions you dress up to.

This costume is awesome! Absolutely perfect for the mad scientist look!

It is incredible. To be honest, I wear it while I'm cooking! Yes, a little mad alchemy in the kitchen. It's so much fun! Thank you

This is a fabulous item. This is the second version of this coat I have purchased. This is for a plague doctor. I also own a white version to be a mad (well, slightly peeved) scientist. Both fit wonderfully and are comfortable to wear for an extended time. The only negative is the buttons can be a little difficult to work sometimes due to placement. It is a great purchase that will last many years (my white coat is around 5 years old and in near-perfect shape).

Superb quality fabric and excellently adhered buttons. It is indeed larger than expected and sizing down is a good idea. This is a commercial-quality coat that has so far done a fantastic job of repelling the blood and fluids of political prisoners and coronavirus-infected degenerates.

Do not confuse this with halloween costume crap - it will stand up to close scrutiny - all the buttons are working buttons. It is stage quality. Bought this for an Uncle Fester halloween costume for 2 reasons: it appeared to be well-made and it wasn't a monks robe (which every other dealer tried to pass off as Fester's coat). Alright, this wasn't going to be Fester's coat either, but it looked much closer than anything else I could find. It was perfect! I ordered a XXXL because I wanted to stuff a pillow under it and the fit was still a little loose - at 5' 10" the length was all the way to the floor without tripping over it. Add some makeup and a trick light bulb and, poof - Uncle Fester! Helps to start out with a bald head because skull caps are a pita. I also bought a pair of German made welder goggles with 3 different pairs of lens shades - only ones I could find that actually had metal rims, everything in the steam punk world was plastic. Take off the makeup, add the goggles and some wild hair (or not) and let the mad loose. The coat is made from a good cloth and stitched well so it should last for years, unless you really are a scientist, mad or otherwise, and expect to use it daily. I could see using this for a Mortician as well as the Uncle Fester and Mad Scientist costumes. I just ask myself, "What would Christopher Lloyd do with this coat?"

Really, no joke. It is almost too big which for me is a pleasant surprise, I ordered a size larger out of habit expecting to have to send it back for being too short, or not being able to put my arms through the sleeves, instead a well made and accurate sized garment arrived in record time. I am quite pleased.

It’s just what I needed for my art and craft projects.Sorry this is not for cosplay or fancy dress I need it practical reasons.And this just perfect for acheiving my goals.

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.

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

Great fit, true to sizing. nice weight material.

This jacket has 4-buttons and is a classic - no pockets to bulge to make you look fat but slimer. Nice feel and warm. I did have the shoulders reduced a little - I m loosing weight and muscle tone, but love it.

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...

Stronger, heavier than some fall coats. Attractive enough to wear always, not just as a costume

Great fabric with wonderful accoutrement details. This safari jacket is stylish and rugged. I spray my jacket with SprayWell to repel the rain

It's awesome

It was a replacement for the old one that I got from Bass ProThis one is much much nicer.

My husband had two safari jackets that he purchased from a large sporting goods store years ago. They have been worn to tatters, but are no longer available. While searching for ones like them I came across Historical Emporium and the safari jacket here looked very similar. I received it much sooner than expected and was pleased that the fabric is even sturdier than what he had previously. It fits him well and he's very happy with it.

Our production of "Arsenic and Old Lace" called for a teddy. Roosevelt on safari look. The sizing was perfect, and the look authentic.

Going on a real safari in Africa. Liked this jacket.

Easy to order. Quality was exceptional. Delivery was quick and on time. I'd certainly use Historical Emporium again.

Not only was the quality much better than I expected, but also the shipping was very fast. The safari jackets do seem to run a bit large, and I had to return the first purchase. The exchange was swift and easy. Thanks!

I was in need for a new safari jacket, as the one I had was aboutqorn out. Checking online for options, I was amazed about the prices of some of these! I came across your site and was amazed at the price and decided I would give this a chance. Well, usually "cheap" has taught me something of at least mediocre quality. Not this time! The sizing guide was a big help in determining the size to get and the jacket does fit nicely. No stray threads or uneven seams. Worth more than the bargain price offered. I only wish the bottom pockets had button-through closures; but that's easy to get done. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Relly nice bush jacket: no one else had anything near the quality or look, and nowhere near the price, either! Will definitely be ordering again from you folks! BTW, very fast shipping, too!

Top-notch safari jacket, old boy! Thrashed through 4 months of stage practice, lights, fake greenery, sweat, no laundering or hot iron applied, strutted about bossing my underlings and searching for elusive gorillas, got thrown about the stage dozens of times (repeatedly) for weeks by a long-haired ape-man, and the jolly old coat still has crisp edges with which a man could shave! Perfect for any safari-themed party, musical, or play, and is surprisingly comfortable. Fits true to size, and not a frayed stitch anywhere despite my best efforts to beat the blighter into oblivion via fisticuffs! Looks marvelous with a cravat and pith helmet, too. Can’t say enough about this wonderful item, which should be in every explorer’s haberdashery!!!!

Quick delivery on very nicely tailored light weight bush jacket! Good price and true to size.

walked into the building wearing my new purchase and had three compliments

Excellent quality merchandise. Preferred company to purchase new vintage clothing.

Fabric is pretty much the same as a canvas drop cloth--dense without being too heavy. Came out well when machine washed (gentle) and dried (finished line-drying damp for no wrinkles). I'm busty, hippy, and somewhat broad-shouldered and long-armed (44" Bust measurement) and the L size is just about right, although I haven't tried too many layers under it.

Needed as part of my western Santa portrayal. Works great

Been wanting one for a while.

The he item was as advertised regarding quality and appearance. The only problem I had was the size. The item was way too large even though I ordered my usual size. So I will purchase again but definitely need maybe two sizes smaller for proper fit.

Nice spring jacket

Always wanted one, now I have it.

Apparently, you didn't receive the photos and comments that I sent.

Hello, Very nice coat, simple, perfectly matching the description, thank you.

I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase! I have ordered a number of Long Coats from Historical Emporium over the years, and every one of them has been akin to "Wish Fulfillment"! The quality of tailoring and fit have been great with each item, and this Duster continues the chain of excellence! Another stylish accoutrement for my Wardrobe!

Great product, great price and shipped quickly. Thanks

This nice well made duster

Works great for keeping the grime from public transportation off my clothes and very comfortable.

Purchased for Barnaby Tucker in Hello Dolly; we decided it was time to build our late Victorian costume stock by investing in a few quality pieces. This jacket is superb. Fits will, nice fabric - exactly what I was hoping for!

I wear it to work instead of a long coat.

I like it. It's not really costumey. I hope they re-stock trousers size 30...

The jacket is beautifully done and very authentic looking. I was a bit nervous when I first ordered, since I have never been able to buy a sport coat without tailoring. This coat fits perfectly. Love it!

This is a nice jacket for the money spent, and a unique style that you can't find anywhere else. The material is nice, but not quite as heavy as other wool jackets I own, and I am disappointed that it does not have any interior breast pockets. It does not have a "bi-swing" back, but since I got a "size larger", I will be able shoot while wearing it. This will be nice jacket to wear when shooting with the Vintagers and our old side-by-side shotguns.

I like a lot of 19 century clothing it is both elegant and practical. great buy

I had my eye on this coat for some time and cheap as I am I could not resist when it went on sale, (sorry HE!), but the wait was well worth it! I absolutely love "old style" clothing because it has such great character. This coat is no exception. Love the styling and the fit is spot on. I almost ordered an Extra Large because I'm tall and sleeves are an issue at times but the regular Large fit just fine while still roomy enough to layer underneath for those really chilly days. Historical Emporium has the best selection of items of any store I have seen. The prices are alway reasonable and shipping is always expeditious. This is not the first time I have purchased items from HE and I dare say it won't be the last!

Love it. Good construction. Packaged nicely. Anxious to wear it this Fall.

Neat, I love it! Finally after so many years each I have one. I'd like to see a matching pair of knickers with the knee leather strap just below the knee?

Love it. Good construction. Packaged nicely. Anxious to wear it this Fall.

Love it. Good construction. Packaged nicely. Anxious to wear it this Fall.

We had to return this item due to size issues. A large was much too large, and we were reluctant to exchange for a medium. The fabric was a little rough, though attractive enough. Overall it was stiff, not as soft as I would like. But, still a nice jacket, and hard to find. Decently cut.

I was very pleased with the quality of the wool herringbone tweed Norfolk jacket! It fits the actor in the play I'm designing costumes for.

I always wanted a Norfolk Jacket. Your Norfolk Jacket fulfills my dream.
