Collar size is key for shirt fit
To measure your collar: Place the measuring tape around the fullest part of your neck and keep the tape snug but not tight. For a comfortable fit, place 2 fingers between the tape and your neck.
Note: not all shirts are offered in every size. Please see the drop-down list for available sizes in this style.
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.

Love this 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.

Two perfect fits
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.)

Found item not easy to find
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.
I needed the item quickly and it arrived sooner than expected. Great work!

The 20s era cane I ordered is lightweight but strong. Plus it is the coolest cane I've seen and I get lots of compliments on it.

All of the products I have ordered from Historical Emporium have been beyond my personal expectations of quality and durability. But, w hat is amazing is I receive my online order a day and a half later! Maybe t hat is due to being only an hour and a half south of the facility here in California. Regardless, I have always received my orders faster then I expect.

Overall it was fairly easy to find what I was looking for. The only down-side I can see was that it was not clear an item could not be shipped to a PO Box until the next day. Called customer service and they quickly took care of updating the shipping ad dress. The clothing came when expected.
