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.

This shirt fit well, was a basic style that covers many eras, the cost was right, the sleeves and cuffs were decent. I may get another as a spare. If you are tall, as I am, make sure you note that somewhere on the form. I did, and was rewarded with the longer fit at the waist...

This shirt has a small round collar, a pleated bib front and is made with some room in the shoulders, arms and back. It is beautiful, appropriate for formal and informal occasions and is very comfortable to wear. It is 100% cotton and is machine washable! No dry cleaning necessary! You can wear this shirt with a pair of jeans and look great! It is truly a classic! Thank you for your excellent products and fabulous quality!

Well made shirt perfect for all occasions!

I am very pleased with my shirt. It looks great and fits perfectly. My wife and I were very impressed, and a bit surprised, at how quickly it was shipped.

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 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.

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

Perfect. Well made. Entirely satisfied.

My husband has worn this shirt twice since its arrival. He looks so very handsome. The shirt was created with such care and detail. It will last him for many, many for reenactments. Thank you!

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

Daily public attire.

Perfect for formal wear and using it for a cemetery tour I was involved with. Just don’t do like I did measure you neck size and go with it. I ordered my usual dress shirt size and it was way too big.

Although I have not worn it yet, I did try it on. It fits well, the sizing guide was correct. The only disappointment was the buttons. I had to change them out to white bone buttons, which I will again change out to white glass buttons when I have more time. When trying to recreate a period look, clear plastic buttons is not the way to go. Otherwise no complaints. It shipped faster than I thought it wood and seemed to have it overnight.

Good quality shirt and ample arm length for the taller man

Wish the sleeves were 1-2 inches shorter. Will use garters or rubber bands to address issue. Sleeves to long for size based on neck fit.

This is a quality product! When the product arrives, the material feels thin; but after one run through the laundry the material fills out and you can appreciate the quality of the cotton and the stitching. MAKE SURE that you measure yourself using the instructions provided at Historical Emporium's web site for best fit. If you find yourself at the larger end of the sizing, go a size up as a loose fit will look more authentic and will be more comfortable. You will have to iron this shirt, it is 100% cotton. I have found it best to tumble dry for a few minutes to remove excess water, then hang dry for best wear. Hope this helps.

We ordered per the size chart and the size L was actually larger than the chart says (in the neck measurement). So, we had to send it back and order a medium. Medium fits perfectly. Looks great with his Victorian tux and tails costume for historical dancing. Thank you!

I love wing collars and the addition of the cuff-link and stud option to a 100% cotton Victorian dress shirt was a very welcome and wise change to this product. I am delighted with my purchase and wear it often. In fact, I am wearing it (with the Guilford waistcoat) as I write this review. I will almost certainly pick up a second at some point.

Excellent item for historically accurate period costume and versatile to use as a “modern” tux shirt.

Material was to thin. Returned for refund.

Great shirt. Fit perfectly. Good quality. Included a nice metal button for the collar.

Noel recommended the Virgil Shirt to go with the double breasted vest to add versatility to the outfit. The shirt can be worn with the collar up or down for different looks. It fits perfectly. The quality is wonderful, the customer service was 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend any products from Historical Emporium.

What can be said about the functional simplicity of a white button up shirt, especially for period-accurate costumes? The shirt is high quality, the fit is nice as long as you take the time to take your measurements and order the appropriate size, and what was perhaps the most surprising aspect of this shirt: it's extremely comfortable. The shirt is 100% cotton and feels very, VERY, nice on the skin and is very breathable. Pairs well with sleeve garters and bowties as well. Overall, great!

This is a very well crafted shirt that certainly looks time appropriate. It also wrinkles as though it is. The tailoring is excellent and the size fits true to size.

The clothing that I ordered are for a Hickory Golf Outing. I also do reenactments / rendezvous, 1800-1850. Everything that I ordered looks good and fits good.

Excellent shirt. Would be better if sold in 1 or 2 neck sizes bigger.

Quality of shirt was very nice. Chest and arm fit was good but I to go to next size larger to get right size in neck. Easy process to exchange shirt.

I have bought Virgil Shirts in the past because they do have a left breast pocket and the overall look is very 1880's. It is big enough to wear as a night shirt as well. I had to unload previous shirts and trousers after I lost 200 pound since my last order three years back.

This shirt fits well and looks great. Excellent quality and easy to clean.

I am always wary of ordering clothes by mail or from the internet, but I needed a Victorian/Edwardian club-collared short, so I took a chance when I stumbled across The Gentleman's Emporium. To say the least, I'm glad I did.The shirt (of very high quality) fits perfectly (which isn't all that common as I lift weights four day/week). So why the "two perfect fits" title? Given this initial experience with the company, I'd say The Gentleman's Emporium is going to be an equally perfect fit for me. (Expect more orders.)

Looked on many other sites for rounded collars and had little luck. Gentlemen's Emporium had a great selection and the sizing recommendations were accurate. It's a great shirt.

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.

The fabric pattern looks attractive and authentic. The background color is arctic white, which is a hard color for most people to wear and is not really authentic for the period. The shirt features a left breast pocket. To the best of my knowledge, shirts from the late 1800s did not have pockets. I returned the shirt because the collar is about one-half inch too short in height to wear any sort of cravat or neck-tie with. Even with the narrow band on the "Satin-Puff" necktie, the collar does not look right or work well on a dress shirt. I could live with the bright white color--but not the short collar.

Had to wait until my size was in stock, didn't care for that too much. Shirt arrived in fine condition and am now more than pleased. I will be wearing it tomorrow under a Calvin Klein two piece charcoal suit. It will look smashing. Historical needs to calculate for millennial customers in terms of stocking tall sizes. You have fans that are not short, burly or over 60 Altogether a solid four

A little tight in the neck compared to the others i bought that were the same size, same manufacturer. May want to up a size if concerns.

Well made.

This is a casual shirt with a simplistic, frontier style that I like a lot. The color was lighter than I expected - but this is good because I find I can wear it with all of the vests and dungarees of different colors that I have. The fit of this shirt is loose and comfy. The back stitching has a great, subtle, frontier look. Perhaps this shirt can be made in the color black? I think the style of this shirt plus the color black would give it a very dramatic look.

Very comfortable and well sized.

Shirt seems to be well constructed and fabric is quite lightweight, great for summer. It is too big however. Ordered a Large for my neck size, which is a 16, and I can fit my hand into the collar. I sadly threw away the tags and packaging before I could really try it on with the vest I bought previously, so unreturnable. It's a good shirt, nice metal buttons, but if you buy one, size down!

Fits perfect and very comfortable.

The design is fine, but the material is thin and it pills. Costly for the quality.

This is comfortable and looks great! It didn't shrink when machine washed and feels great to wear. I think the sizing is perfect.

Great shirt. Runs large, though.

The size large (my usual size) was too big. The sleeve s were too long. Reordered a medium and it was just right. Thanks for the prompt shipping.

The shirt is very nice , The only problem is it runs Large. My husband usually wears a Large and sometimes a XL so I ordered a Large and it was huge had to send it back for a medium. Received the second one with in a week of sending it back.

I believe smaller mother of pearl buttons would have been more authentic.

Coulter shirt in natural color is excellent quality for the price. Will definitely be using this company again. Shirt is slightly roomier than expected, but is more historically accurate in that regard. Natural color is not too dark. Sort of an off-white linen color. Better than I was expecting. If you want a more fitted shirt, try ordering a size under what you usually need. I wear a medium in most shirts, but suspect that a small would still fit, even in the collar, for a more fitted appearance. Overall great shopping experience

1928 Roadster and like to period dress for events and occasions. These trousers, knickers, shirts etc. from Historical Emporium fit the bill. Even though they are earlier vintage, for working guys, they are still in style for the 20's, 20's and even 40"s. The fit is good and the quality high. Love the stuff! We are hosting the MAFCA 2024 National Convention at Ruidoso, NM in June and are rigging up for the festivities with new duds.

Shirt was a nice fit. Good Workmanship and Quality

This is a nice shirt. We purchased it for a pioneer re-enactment. It fits great.

Great quality! I am always wary when purchasing shirts online because they never fit. I have a big neck so when I buy a collard shirt I have to get one with a big enough neck so I'm not choking but the rest of the shirt ends up a dress. Not this one! Great fit all around and buttons around my neck with a bit of room to spare. I took a chance and I hit a home run! I recommend this shirt.

I absolutely love it! I had bought a similar shirt years ago and wore it until it fell apart but could never find them again in the store. But this shirt definitely meets and exceeds all my expectations. I'll be buying more!

Without exception, all shirts I bought from H.E. have exceeded my expectations. They are comfortable and they FIT. They're made of good stuff and they are well constructed.

The fit and feel of this shirt combined with the compliments I have received whilst wearing it have elevated this shirt to Favorite status. I feel as if I've discovered a wonderful hidden gem from Grandma's attic. My compliments to your nimble thimbled team. Regards.

This was a Christmas gift for my husband, so he just opened it yesterday--been wearing it ever since. He LOVES it! Perfect weight fabric, & seems VERY well constructed. Sizing is perfect for him too! He's already decided that he wants to take a look at your other "no collar" shirts, which are increasingly tough to find at affordable prices.

Took a while to receive the shirt, but well-worth the wait. Great shirt, very comfortable, and goes well with all my vests and scarfs. Very happy! Wanted to purchase the black felt Gus crown hat also, but were out of stock and could not pre-order - disappointed, but will live! Thanks for your great clothes and services. Editor's note: The Gus hat has been discontinued by the vendor so we are unable to purchase more. We apologize for the inconvenience.
