Color: Black

A shirt for doin’ business the old-fashioned way. Whether seeing a man about a horse or signing a deed for more land, our Ballard Shirt makes a downright respectable impression.

A light background sets the tone for conservative stripes. True to 1800s style, this pullover shirt features a half-placket with four buttons, a band collar, full sleeves, and gathers along the yoke. No breast pocket for a clean, classic look.

Imported. Made from 100% cotton. Machine wash cold. Available in sizes S–3X. Also available in several colors and in a ladies style.

I have yet to wear the shirt, but I like what I see. It appears to be made well and will be fine for the impression I want to use it for.

Too long. Fits him like a dress. Way too much fabric to stuff into trousers. Besides who wants to look like a puff-up marshmallow?

1st time I’ve EVER been disappointed with Historical Emporium. The fabric was a little flimsy and the solid black stripes had white dots where the fabric had not been dyed properly.

The Shirt Makes the Man

The occasion was a first-person historical event at an open-air/outdoor museum. I was portraying a farmer. The shirt looks great! On a very hot and humid/tropical day the shirt was cool and comfortable to wear. Perfect fit!

Fit great.

5' 9" and 170 lbs. here. Large fits great.

Material is thinner than the "work" shirts, but that is good for warmer weather.

Dressing the Part

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.

Nice shirt

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

Just what I wanted

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.

Fantastic

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.

New Favorite

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.

Very pleased!

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.

Excellent

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.
