Previously, about two years ago or so, I ordered 19th century style glasses that I use when dressed as an old-fashioned Santa. I like the glasses (quite inexpesive) very much. Recently I ordered brown cavalry style boots for my custom made Santa suit after years of not finding suitable boots. They look good, but I haven't really tried them out in full use yet. In just trying them on I candidly find the fit questionable, but they might still be fine if I wear heavier winter style socks, which I suppse is rather appropriate given the time of year I wear my Santa attire. (-:

As far as your website and serivice are concerened I have no concerns whatsoever. I am considering purchasing other items from Gentlemen's Emporium.

They have many wonderful items that can't be found elsewhere. While some may think this is only a place to shop for a fancy dress party, and some items are a bit peculiar, many articles are timeless fashion pieces, particularly their men's vests, neckwear and hats. Hardly a day goes by that I don't wear something purchased here.

I ordered 2 vests online while talking to a representative via phone at the same time. She answered all my questions that I needed to know about a product. Placed the order that day and 3 days later I received my order. Vest's fit perfectly, well-made, and looks good. The 2 vets that I just ordered from Gentleman's Emporium now make 6 total. I'm sure I'll shop again.

Customer Service was very friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time needed.
Sizing was tricky. Customer Service recommended I go exactly with the size recommended, not with the recommendation of other customers who said to go at least one number larger. I went one size larger and the fit is great (I'm 6'4" long legs and arms).
The delivery time was right on. Even though I am not happy it took Canadian Customs in Vancouver 1 week to clear the item.
It would have been good to have some idea of customs fees. I ended up having to pay another 108$ in Canadian Customs.
I am happy with the overall quality. It's not Armani, but it also didn't cost 1000$. I would buy more from Gentlemen's Emporium.

I was very happy with the tailcoat
October 20, 2016

I was very happy with the tailcoat. Good quality, fits a little tight on my linebacker shoulders, but easily fixed. Price was fine, but the delivery turnaround - wow. They got it across the country in just a few days. The coat finishes off the look perfectly and will be a great addition to our show.
Thank you,

Not only do the two coats I purchased look incredible and very professional, the quality of the stitching and feel of the material are impressive. Well worth the price, which is extremely reasonable. Your company is a great find.
