The choice of professionals that need washability in a historically accurate fabric.  USA grown pima cotton is hand woven on virgin looms in Ecuador, sewn with no metal grommets, and garment dyed to be pre-shrunk.  Many styles of ruffled shirts are made to be like dress shirts (like the Nobleman) but this rare beast has the ruffles, but the near indestructability of the pro-series preshrunk organic heavy hand woven cotton.  Wrists can be tied to fit, or the ties can be wrapped around the wrist.  Chest remains partially exposed.

Post Covid:  We are now a part-time company.  Please give a full business day for processing.

WE SHIP INTERNATIONALLY

Import tariffs might apply.

Out of Stock Items

(Returns and exchange info below)
If anything is out of stock, we will first attempt to reach you by email, but if no response in 24 hours, we will call you. However, for the most part, all items shown are in stock and ready to ship unless stated within the item description.

Timely Deliveries

We are aware this is event oriented dressing and will not hesitate to contact you if there are exceptions to your order.

Special Consideration for Saturday Deliveries

When considering how fast you want an item to arrive, please keep in mind that UPS does not deliver on Saturday as a regular service, this must be asked for as an email custom order as the system does not recognize the difference between days of the week. USPS, however, does consider Saturday as part of its regular delivery days. If you order on a Thursday or Friday and want it on Saturday, you need to email or call us first.

UPS Does Not Count Pick-Up Day

UPS does not count the day of pick-up as one of the days in a 3 Day or 2 Day delivery. If you order on Monday evening and ask for UPS 3 Day select, and it goes out Tuesday, UPS will count Wednesday, Thursday and Delivery day of Friday as the 3 Days.

Shipping Materials

We sometimes use recycled or surplus shipping materials which are sometime pre-printed boxes from other companies.

UPS INTERNATIONAL WARNING INCLUDING CANADA STANDARD

There is a new surcharge above and beyond customs tariffs that is equal to or more than the original shipping charge. Use USPS if possible.

Shipping is Based on Weight and Distance

Domestic shipping is based on UPS or USPS, by weight and zone, from Portland, Oregon.

Tracking and Insurance

All packages come with tracking and liability coverage through UPS, but not us. Upgrade insurance through USPS is optional and must be requested. Any UPS residential order over 250.00 must have a signature for your protection against theft. You may request “No Signature Required,” but we cannot replace shipment if it shows arriving at its destination.

UPS Ground

UPS Ground from Oregon is an average of 3 days to west coast, 3-5 days for midwest and major hub east coast, and up to a full week for rural, extreme south and extreme northeast.


Returns of unworn items for refund are accepted for 60 days after sale date only.
The amount you paid for shipping is not refunded unless the item was deemed defective. If items are received after 60 days, they are subject to a 15% restocking fee.

Halloween Season Returns and Exchanges

During Halloween season, any item that was bought between September 20th – October 30th must be received back for refund by November 20th or is subject to a 15% restocking fee. In addition, no weapon or other accessory will be allowed for return, due to one-use abusers.

Returns: If you simply do not want your item, or it did not meet your expectations and you want to return for refund, just send to the address above with a note inside that includes your name and order number, and that you want a refund, and we will refund your card the amount of the item.

Because of hygienic concerns, we cannot accept back any item that has been worn (try-on ok).

Exchanges

All regular priced clothing items are entitled to one free exchange on us to be sure you are happy with your choice of color or fit.

We only do this by UPS Ground unless item is a pound or less.

The free label program is for exchanges only, not refunds.

We cannot provide any exchange labels for international addresses.

Close-out items are not returnable.

International Import Taxes

International shipments are subject to import tax imposed by the incoming country that we have nothing to do with. We do our best to balance the insurance cost declaration with the minimum we can state on the customs declaration so that you are not charged too much, but there may still be charges due. If the package is returned to us for refusal of payment of tariff charges, we will have to charge the return shipping and any fees incurred to you by deducting from your refund. If the refusal is by the incoming country for any reason (occasionally the weaponry) and not by you, we will NOT charge you the return fee.

Princess Blouse

Sleeves as pretty as a Pirate Princess. Same sleeves as the Princess Gown, but as just the blouse so you can wear with any color skirt, or leggings, or bloomers, or jeans. Feminine sleeves have elastic above the elbow and again at the wrist. Because it has elastic ruching under the bust to below the waist, there is no bulk under a corset, and on it’s own, it’s a finished look. As cute with a skirt as with jeans every day. Soft viscose crinkle breathes and washes like cotton.

Medium  bust fits up to 38″, waist stretches from 20-30″, 18″ armhole. You can choose this if you are a size small or medium, but also, if you are a size large but want a slimmer fit.

O/S (fits L/XL) bust up to 44″, waist stretches from 22″ to 34″.
Plus (label says 3x) bust fits from 38-52″, waist stretches from 26-46″.
Bountiful (label says 5x) bust fits from 55-64″, waist stretches from 31-5 0″, 25″ armhole.
To store: Try not to hang by neck elastic. Rather, fold in half and clip to skirt hanger.

Captain Ansell Frock Coat

Frock Coat of thick cotton canvas twill with military style braided gimp trim and long, wide bell sleeves.  Justacorps pleating in the bottom half gives just the right amount of flair with 2 hidden box pleats in the corners and a split in the back to allow for a sword scabbard to escape without lifting the back.  Fully lined.  Beautiful metal buttons, flap pockets. Sleeve is long to come past the wrist onto the hand to allow for either a ruffled or button cuff shirt.

John Ansell sailed with Captain Morgan.

8 Point Skirt

This is a very special skirt, made in 2 overlapping, juxtaposed layers of soft, crinkle rayon from natural cellulose.  Drapes beautifully and spins wide. The double layering is the best thing since spiced rum. Elastic and drawstring waistband is wide and comfortable. Remember, this skirt is 2 layers of the same color. Use a full length skirt in a different color for a contrasting effect on the bottom.  Wash like a gentle cotton.

P/S/M will stretch from 20-32 and cinch down to 15″ and is 25″ at the longest

O/S will stretch from 30 to 42 and will cinch down to 24″.

Princess Sleeve Peasant Gown

Exactly the great details of the Short Sleeve Peasant Gown, but with an adorable princess style long sleeve.  Ties at the  bustline, ruched elastic waist for zero bulk under a corset, full flounced skirt, and a very romantic sleeve that has elastic in both the upper arm and at the wrist for lots of shape and movement.  Tight weave rayon gauze. 

Petite/Small (label says M) bust fits up to 38″, waist stretches from 20-30″, 18″ armhole.  And yes, if you’re a medium, you can choose this if you are slim with average bust, but for  more bust or looser waist, go up a size.

Plus (label says 3x) bust fits from 38-52″, waist stretches from 26-46″.

Woman pirate in WTF pose.

Organic Cotton Skull Cap

Much more authentic looking than a biker do-rag, these look hand woven, have a nubby feel, have surged edges, and will actually keep the back of your neck from getting sunburnt.  Will fit anyone, just stick on your noggin and tie in back.

Skullcap is also a Do-rag is also a headwrap.

Organic Cotton Garment Dyed Cotton Sash

They use the same colors as the shirts and blouses of the same line, though dye lots will have some variance.
114″ long single layer, surged edges, in that great, hand woven look and feel that is the signature of the Ecuadorian loomed Pro Series.  Subdued colors that work well with a working pirate outfit, not as fancy as a captain’s sash would be.  14″ wide so you can fold to be wide or narrow.  BTW, that’s where the flintlock goes.

Organic Cotton Sleeveless Banded Collar Shirt/Vest

Why buy a perfectly good Privateer Shirt if you’re only going to cut the sleeves off? Same material, same collar, same sizes that run a whole size large (if not more) so pay attention to the size chart so you don’t need to exchange or look like a tent with sunburnt arms.  These also make terrific vests to go over a long sleeved shirt.

Banded Collar only, no more foldover collar.

Chest:

XS – 40-44″ Works up to men’s medium depending on how lose you want it.
S – 42-46″ Maximum chest measurement can easily fit up to size Large (if that’s what you wear in T-shirts)
M – 44-48″ Maximum material in chest, can fit XL to XXL and so on…….
LG – 48-52″
XL – 50-55″
2XL – 54-57″
3XL – 55-59″
4XL – 60-64″
