Customer photo review of Corduroy-Trimmed Waxed Canvas Work Jacket

M V.

Great outdoors jacket made out of very sturdy waxed canvas in a sort of chocolate brown color. I normally wear a size 42 or Large (shoulders 20", sleeve lengt 26,5") Ordered an XL and it fits perfectly for me. O great jacket for windy and rainy days. You'll have to break it in because it is indeed hard like a piece of board when you take it out of the bag but this gets a lot less when worn.

Corduroy-Trimmed Waxed Canvas Work Jacket

Chris G.

Denim is pretty much perfect. The directions on desizing were straightforward and it worked exactly how it said it would. If you are worried about too much shrinkage, maybe do less than 30 minutes in the hot soak. In terms of leg opening, these are nice and wide. Nothing like the trendy "extra baggy," but more wide than straight. This was a big reason for my purchase. The stiffness after the soak is expected but should become softer and more broken in with more wears. Bleeding in my experien...

Breton Stripe Long Sleeve T-Shirt

Kevin S.

Great design, quality and fit at a very good price. I am 38/9 chest so I bought a medium size. I am currently wearing it unwashed, which looks right on me, whilst there's a bit of leeway for washing shrinkage. I would certainly recommend it if you are wanting this kind of replica historic clothing, so buy with confidence..

Lot 807XX 1954 Type II Denim Jacket

Jonathan L.

Love this t-shirt, it’s a great weight, somewhere between a t-shirt and light sweatshirt. I sized up to an XL as I didn’t want it to be too tight and the fit is great. I’ve got two, the white and the green, and really like both. Vintage look and feel, great quality and really good for the price.

For anyone looking for an authentic Peaky Blinders style under shirt - this is the one! Superb soft, heavy weight fabric. I ordered a size XL and it's a perfect fit. 5'11", 12.7 stones and 40" reasonably athletic chest. Highly recommended, superb quality at a great price.

8.5 oz Organic Cotton Henley T-Shirt

John R.

Superb old school short sleeve 'grandad' style shirt. If only all clothes were made with this quality and care! Highly recommended. Sizing: I'm 5'11" chest 40", weigh 12 and a half stone and reasonably athletic for an old fella. XL was a comfortable fit.

Vintage Short Sleeve Henley T-Shirt - White

Cory H.

Love this coat. Great weight. Everything is quality made. Just a different look from a classic denim coat. I am 6’1, 175 rather have things small it’s a smile when I read the other review I was super concerned about ordering a medium. Unless you like it truly oversized, a medium is the way to go guys always fit nicely against the size large

Denim Fireman’s Jacket

Came out great. Had to return to exchange with a bigger size. This garment is meant to fit loose. Quality is really good! Will definitely get more in the future.

I don't normally leave reviews, but in the case of this suit, French Salt & Pepper Striped Chambray Work Trousers and Jacket ordered from Olderbest, I will. If this review is displayed on the website, it will be in full and unadulterated. Straight off the bat, I wish to convey unreservedly that this is the finest off-the-peg suit I've ever bought. The quality and construction is absolutely unbelievable for the price, definitely up there with the best Jermyn Street tailoring! I'm not kidding, an...

I've been after a pair of these for ages,stumbled upon this pair so glad I did superb quality Love Them wish that I found them earlier (would've saved me some money).I've since ordered more from this site & never been let down.Would Recommend.

Old-Time Y-Back Leather Button Suspender - Khaki Stripe

Glynn H.

As with all your products, I now have 3 jackets and the undershirt the quality is actually excellent. Your customer service was very prompt when I was trying to locate my order. The problem is the length of time to receive an order is very long. I appreciate that you are in China and that Covid has played a part. But I think my last order took over 6 weeks to arrive. You get no notification of when it will arrive as you use Royal Mail in the UK. They give no idea when you might get it so from or...

USN N-1 Undershirt

John B.

This was my first purchase. They are superlatively well-made trousers - really solid, comfortable and stylish (lots of folks have said so). They were delivered quickly and arrived sensibly packed and in good shape. The price seems fair, as the value makes it well worth the money. I highly recommend the company and the goods. I'll be back now for more.

Purchased one of each colour and sized up as per the size & fitting guide i.e. for a standard medium fit, purchase a large. Quality of the shirts is excellent, as is value for money. Highly Recommended.

Really top quality trousers. Very happy with them and the fit is perfect. So good to have all the detail of sizes on the website. Bit of a long wait…I didn’t realise that they would shipped directly from China but it was worth the wait. Highly recommended!

Antony S.

Top quality product at very reasonable price. Fit, style & look was even better than I expected! Would have no hesitation in ordering again, the products are as good as any of the more expensive brands out there. The vintage styling combined with the build quality is outstanding, great job & big thank you to the team at older best!

US Army High Neck Wool Sweater - Olive

Christopher I.

I bought two Henley t-shirts, although they did take a couple of weeks to arrive it was well worth the small wait. Superb quality, heavy weight Cotton, beautifully packaged. I have since placed two more orders in different colours and are brilliant. Excellent service and will absolutely be ordering again from Olderbest.

Vintage Short Sleeve Henley T-Shirt - White

Darren M.

Amazing product, great feel to the fabric and most importantly it is sized correctly. XXL is just that, not labelled XXL and comes in at a Medium. Would certainly recommend.

9 oz Wide Striped Long Sleeve T-Shirt

Mark S.

Have worn and owned high end ( The Real McCoy, Buzz Rickson, Ironheart, Tellason) Deck Jackets in the past, and would say that this Jacket at less than a third of the price of most of the above, is every bit their equal in every way. The quality of workmanship and and attention to detail is absolutely amazing and particularly at the Price Point. Additionally the Service from Olderbest was absolutely First Class. And delivery was super quick. Would not hesitate to buy again. Mark

Good quality, well made, soft and comfortable. I wear 32w Nudie, Edwin. 33w Ironheart or Japanese brands. Older Best Size large fits nicely. Exactly like photos. Fit is slightly tapered toward the ankle, wider around thigh. Vintage fit.

Great shirt. Good quality. Also, I’m a medium so ordered medium, but customer service contacted me to say the XL would fit better. I didn’t believe them but they were right! Great fit. (Perhaps change the labelling though…?)

1930s 5 oz Yarn-Dyed Striped Dress Shirt

Jeff D.

An absolutely superb Henley the quality of which you’ll be hard pushed to find elsewhere, & cheap? I’ve seen them 4 times the price & half the quality, a heavy duty robust fabric, they’ll las a lifetime,I can’t praise them enough, it’s no wonder they’re sold out so often! The customer service is second to none, polite & helpful, impressive in these days of out for what you can get, full marks all round, now where’s my trousers ?

Vintage Long Sleeve Henley Shirt - Apricot

John R.

Great long sleeve vintage collarless/grandad style shirt. I'm usually a 40-42 chest and this Size Large fits really well. Looking to maybe order more in different colors and that's always a good recommendation.

Vintage Long Sleeve Henley Shirt - Black

Stuart H.

Once again Olderbest go beyond expectation and supply a fine pair of corduroy trousers. They looked good on the website but the reality is even better. Non of your paper thin material here. These are a really substantial and good quality cloth and are cut in a traditional and iconic style. Delivery was very quick and they reached me faster than an item ordered from Stockport, approx 90 miles away, on the same day. Great service and top class products once again.

Customer photo review of Vietnam War OG-107 Fatigue Utility Pants

Darren K.

Nice repro trousers I have two pairs of originals dated 66 & 67 so I can compare them truthfully.Firstly they would be more versatile with the leg cuff holes added so people could put their own cords through the holes to wear with boots,after all that is what these were worn with(see the pic) I did these by hand myself but it does take skill to do it without undoing the hem so you don't sew the other side of the trouser as well ,very fiddly,but worth it,plus the repro buttons are not necessary a...

Excellent heavy weight t shirt. Although the description advises to size up I found it came up quite large and ideally I wished I hadn’t, although in the end I’ll more than likely order another one in a smaller size.

Heavyweight Cotton Wide Striped T-Shirt - Blue/Apricot

Forrest J.

Absolutely tremendous Henley T-shirt. I am completely impressed with the quality and fit. I could not be happier. After the 'test run' of ordering one, and appreciating its quality, I've gone back for more. And will again. Thanks so much for providing such quality clothing.

Trousers are amazing more to the point so was the customer service. Genuinely haven't received customer service as good from any company on line. Can't speak highly enough of OlderBest look forward to doing business with them again. Thank you thank you.

1943 British Army KD & JG Gurkha Bermuda Pants - Khaki

Mark A.

The second of these henleys I own. Described as 'apricot' but 'raw cotton' would be fair if that's what you're going for (I was). Very good quality material and finish- very good value for the money if you consider that many of these heavy, raw style shirts are going for £80 plus. Definitely size at least 1 up from normal as the sizing is on the small size. Would recommend.

Vintage Long Sleeve Henley Shirt - Apricot

Katherine R.

Excellent customer service and a very good Henley t-shirt. No sooner had we received this, did we realise that actually we should have sized up (because they are quite small compared to some sizes) and when I was in the process of submitting an enquiry, I realised I’d had a couple emails from customer service, just before they’d dispatched, notifying me of this. So I contacted them and they immediately sent out a replacement. Incredibly efficient service. 10/10

I bought this and the long-sleeved version. Both are heavier weight and feel great. Love the cuffed sleeves on this as well.

Beyond comfortable! So smooth, yet still nice and heavy. Will be a great undershirt, just as well as it will be a layered “over shirt”.

J N.

Not as perfect as the white one, small quality issue at the collar. Hope it doesn’t turn into a hole. Quality control should spot this. Of course still a good t-shirt.

I have bought these jeans before. Very heavy denim, will last for years. My older pair have faded nicely now so I bought some more to get that new look.

Olderbest has EXCELLENT customer service. There was a hiccup with the shirt that was sent out to me but Olderbest made it right. They have a customer for life. Can’t beat the quality of the shirt. The fit is right on point. Super fast delivery.

This is a fantastic quality jacket!! Looks exactly the same like the oroginal, 1950’s ‘H BAR C’ model which I once had… Arrived real fast too, sadly, cos of my fault, Ive ordered slightly bigger size, so had to order a new one. Hope it will arrive real fast, I cant wait to wear it on stage !! Great quality, material, serious stuff !! A+++

Bolero Musician Jacket

Steve R.

After input from Angela I went for an XXL, in white. Arrived quicker than expected and the fit is perfect, the fabric and manufacturing is like a garment of way more cost. Luv it so much I bought the other colours, they’ve just arrived and they’re perfect!
