Brian B.

Hi looks to be a well made product. I’m a regular lge and sized up to a x lge. I would recommend that but pay attention to the measurements provided. All in all I’m pretty happy. Excellent shipping especially considering the world wide restrictions of late. Cheers

Martin M.

The hoodie is fantastic! Excellent design, perfect fit, and lovely colour. Initially, I hesitated due to shipping concerns and the less-than-ideal return policy, coupled with sizing worries. However, once I placed my order, customer service promptly reached out to verify my size. While I remain a bit apprehensive about ordering again (given sizing challenges), the quality of the clothing is impressive and I would probably contact customer service to ask for their advice. I did come across a few...

Was very wary of purchase due to China shipping, but when the jacket finally arrived it was great quality and well worth the wait, if Olderbest improved their shipping out they would be my go to for these type of garments

Couldn’t be happier with these. Amazing fit and quality. You could have told me these were $400 jeans and I would have believed you. I normally wear a 30 and ordered a 31 which fit perfect so I recommend going 1 size up. You can’t beat the value here, looking forward to trying some more of their denim items.

I bought this suit a few months ago but this was the first time today wearing it. When I paced the order I was unsure about the sizing but the service and communication from the staff was second to none. They helped me pick the right size and they were not wrong. I will buy from this company again as I was so delighted with the product and quality. Thank you so much for everything, the service, packaging and how quickly it came to the UK.

Daniel R.

So i unpacked my suit and tried it on for the first time and I didn't want to take it off! I have a collection of 30s/40s suits both original and replica and the highest compliment I can pay to the cut and appearance of this suit is that to me it looks more authentically 30s than an original! I truly am over the moon with my purchase and will definitely be buying more from Olderbest. Thank you too to the Olderbest team who helped me choose the right size and were very helpful and friendly indeed...

Very pleased with this item. Good quality. Fits great. I ordered slightly larger than I normally would as the sizes are a tad smaller than usual, in the UK. Item arrived within the timeframe specified. Very pleased!

Really good quality material and well put together. Customer service was excellent too as I ordered the blue waistcoat in XL and it fit perfectly but the brown waistcoat in XL was too small so had to send it back for an XXL. Communication from the UK based office was quick, helpful and polite. Returned the brown one and replacement from China arrived in 2 weeks. Overall very very happy with both waistcoats.

Nikolay K.

An absolutely great item. One of the best Autumn/Spring parkas in my life. Extremely well made. The quality of sewing and fabric are in no respect less than £1000-grade high end luxury parkas. The details are historically accurate, not just replicated visually: for example, the zip was outsourced from the TALON company, that used to make zips for the original US M-51 parkas back when they were introduced. The original military marking on the inner side of the hood is very stylish, too. The sl...

Nur J.

Incredible jacket. The thing to remember is that it doesn't have front hand warmer pockets on the outside. Neither does it have pockets on the inside. But this enables the cut of the jacket to be much better. Which is why I wanted it. The cut of the jacket is what stands out. The fit for me is perfection. I'm very broad shouldered but narrow waisted. The cuff opening is also wide. Which I think gives the jacket a much better proportions in outline. Also means you don't have to unbutton it w...

This was my first order from Olderbest, but I’ll be ordering more. The fabric is excellent and they are very well made. In US sizes I typically wear a 35x30 and the XXL fits great at the waist and I had them shortened. The hem is generous if you might need letting the length down. Trust the size chart - it seems spot on. I was expecting a very slow delivery, but was pleasantly surprised.

My favorite suit! It's so comfortable, luxurious, warm and smart. If you want a standout suit that's going to last a lifetime, this is the one. Beautifully crafted and extremely high quality. I didn't find a single thread out of place. Fit is like it's been made to measure. Fantastic stuff as usual, thanks again to all at Olderbest.

Impressive shirt. Fits great and the quality is unmatched for the price, it wont stretch after the day and will retain tension, and the vintage look makes it a great dressy alternative to a polo. Couldn't be happier!

The only thing I regret is that with summer coming, I won't be able to wear this jacket for a while. It is lush. I love the soft, heavy corduroy material and the black cotton lining. Two generous pockets inside, at the chest and the large pocket/compartment at the back that opens from the sides. I usually wear a size L and I ordered a size 40, it is a perfect fit.

Fantastic trousers, I am so happy I ordered them. The material is just phenomenal, it has got a nice weight and it is soft and cool, extremely comfortable against the skin. All the small design details and the quality of the workmanship are just out of this world. Also, it arrived in just 10 days, in proper packaging. Thank you Olderbest! And thank you Angela in Customer Services. You guys are amazing.

I love this shirt, it is even better than I expected. The fabric, quality, style and fit is fantastic. Your information regarding sizing was very helpful, I ordered the XXL. My normal UK size is L or XL so I thought the XXL would be too big, but it's spot on! Many thanks.

Soon as I placed the order I had Angela & Ida double checking my sizes. I normally fit L so sized up to XL. Right....tracking was there from day 1. Wow! The shirt was 10/10. Super quality.

Well done all for showing how it should be done. 10 out of 10 easy!

Wonderful quality, seams all nice and cool leather pull tag. Fully lined inside. It fits close to my body and it's very lightweight so perfect for summer days. The only thing I'd say is that there is no care tag but customer support did tell me it's machine washable, personally I'd put it in a delicate cold wash.

Review prior to first wash. The construction and weight on this shirt is excellent. The shirt is a TANK! Out of bag the instant I touched it I knew it was special. My family and I both went “whoah!!” The shirt definitely punches above its weight class. Comparable shirts are $50+. I bought this one and time catcher brand. Both are good, worth it, get both. This one had that wow factor and is the clear winner.

I've ordered a number of items from Olderbest in the past, and this jacket didn't disappoint. Outstanding quality and detail. The 80% wool lining and mouton collar provide excellent warmth in the colder winter months. Hard-wearing jacket with talon zippers and tight knits. Can highly recommend.

Jeans are great, they have that old school feel and look, with raw denim you take the journey with them instead of stonewashed denim where the journey is already made, these jeans are very good quality, nice weight, glad I bought two pairs, cheers non stock 👍

I wear a 34 in most uk high street brands, and they have some space so I bought a 38 which came up a tad big but after a hot soak the jeans fit very nicely. They come a tad short, but I have 30 inch inseam and I still have a nice turn up. The photo shows the quality of the stitching, which is even, with tight seams. More of a summer weight feel to the denim, but with a nice drape and a bit of character. I think it’s important to remember how much these jeans cost to really understand what a barg...

Great jacket! I own several military jackets by Eastman, Buzz Rickson and a TSPTR SEAL smock likely made at the John Lofgren factory. This one is definitely up there in terms of detail and quality.

Everything from the beginning to the end was perfect. The guys from Customer Service were amazing (specially Ida), answering all my questions and concerns very efficiently and quickly. The delivery was on time and once I’ve got it it is simply as I expected it. I would say if someone likes vintage clothing, go for something which respects the tradition and original cut rather than modern imitations. And with regards to the quality, these pieces are meant to last forever, you can feel it.

Lovely shirt, feels great, good thickness for the middle season, maybe not the best choice for hot summer days in my opinion. I've ordered my usual size and if fits well, a bit tight around the neck probably because I'm a bit wide on the shoulder, nonetheless, love it!
