The ultimate for elegance and rich historic flair in rugged excellence. Perfect complement to my other duds. Highly versatile. Appropriate for pirates. The kind of shirt Jean Lafitte might have worn. In the winter.

I love the quality, and the 19th century authenticity of the shirt.

It's well made and fits nicely but it's much heavier material then I thought it would be making it pretty much winter only wear. That's why I only gave it three stars.

Blends Right In!

So I work at a chocolate factory and we were testing a new batch of cherry flavored chocolate. I personally hate the taste but it tested good in focus groups. Anyways, I split hot fudge and it blended right into my shirt. I decided to jump in and the supervisor hasn't found me for 3 days. The camouflage is just too good.

Incredible look!!

Absolutely love the Lamar Work Shirt. The attention to detail is second to none. I received several positive comments from many friends. My wife loves the look of the shirt and goes well with my cowboy cut jeans & Western boots.
Kudos to Leonard who helped me with my purchase!
Great service!!

Lamar Work Shirt is the Best!

This shirt was my Christmas present for myself. I know, a bit selfish! But it was well worth it! It feels good, looks good, and is worth every dollar! Merry Christmas to me!

Pretty good

Quality is good and I like the subtle paisley. The collar is smaller than other shirts of the same size from HE, and doesn't measure the size advertized, reason for losing a star. Otherwise it's a great shirt.

Lamar Work shirt

Shipping was very fast. Fit, finish, and sizing of this product is excellent. Historically very appropriate for last quarter of the 19th Century. A little fancy for a work shirt but perhaps a "go to meeting" shirt. I like it.

I have purchased clothing from Historical Emporium, for years, to do historic shooting with Single Action Shooting Society and National Congress of Old West Ssootists. I have yet to be diappointed. I have only praise for everything I have purchased and for Historical Emporium. You will not go wrong with this company.

REALLY NICE SHIRT

I recieved this shirt faster than expected. I have checked it over very well and it is of fine quality. I tried it on and the fit is excellent. I have yet to wear it, but if the multitude of olther clothing from Historical Emporium is any indication, I am sure it will wear well and I will be very pleased.

Great Shirts

I work in the blacksmith shop at Historic Camden Park in Camden, SC and so I own several Early American type work shirts. The shirts I have from Historical Emporium are my "go to" shirts. They are well made, rugged and great to work in. The Lamar Work shirt in Burgundy is my fifth and most recent purchase and I get compliments on it each time I wear it. For the money, I don't think you can beat these shirts.

High Quality

The thicker fabric makes this feels incredibly luxurious. The detailing on the front gives it the perfect touch of flair without being over the top. After taking it in I added on antique buttons and now it's my favorite shirt.

Great shirt

I have bought four shirts off this site. Everyone has been of high quality. This shirt once again is superb, a little heavier than a cotton shirt but soft. The design on the front is subtle and is a great splash of design. Sturdy built I wear this as an everyday. This place does not sell cheap stuff. I wear all my shirts and none have developed problems.

Perfect!

I wear these clothes every day, and this is a new favorite. The weather is getting warm, and the material is rather heavy so we shall see. Perfect fit for the size, and very comfortable. All in all this is the level of quality I expect from The Emporium!

Lamar work shirt

Another great purchase from the historical emporium. The fit works very well with my frame, and I have received numerous compliments. It would be nice if the manufacturer could release this style in more colors.

Nice shirt

This shirt is built from what feels to be some sturdy material. I expect that I will be able to get moderate use from this shirt over several years.

If I am wrong about this shirt and it does not hold up to moderate use, I will be back to update this review.

This is a top quality shirt and the fit is great. I plan on purchasing more of them. It is a very comfortable shirt to wear.

Ten stars!

I love this shirt so much that I ordered one in every colour after getting the first. The thick soft cotton washes well, with little need for ironing, and it is beautiful and so comfortable. The colour is more of a warm vanilla shade than "white". I get compliments just about every time I wear it!

Incorrect colouring

It's not white like it shows on the image, I should have known that Ivory isn't white so it's really my fault. An expensive fault too, I'm from England!

Really nice shirt fits well & feels good cotton is not scratcy next to your skin . My 12 year old grand daughter gave it a 2 thumbs up rating & in my kind it can not be rated higher than that . I wear what I buy as every day clothes so fit & comfort along with looks matter to me .I will probably buy a few more for every day casual wear

Timeless

I originally purchased this shirt in black. From the moment I put the shirt on, I liked it. Comfortable, a slightly heavier fabric, but a loose, cool fit. I liked it so much that I began wearing it about town now and then. Living in "the last best place (Montana)," this shirt fits right in.I received so many complimentary comments that I ordered it in ivory and burgundy. It may be a "period" shirt, but is truly timeless. Well constructed, nice details, and comfort galore.

Surprised

This shirt is twice as nice as I expected. Wore it while traveling for comfort, but received so many compliments I decided to wear it in more formal meetings. It was well received. Comfortable, well built, a great look. I give this shirt an A+!

Work Shirt???

They may call it a work shirt, but it looks good enough for leisure wear as well. The fabric seems to be sturdy and durable enough to qualify as a work shirt. It will receive a bit of rough wear over the next few months, and I anticipate it will retain its good looks.
