  • Traveling Man's Emporium- Kiev Thomason

    I wanted to briefly voice my opinion on some of the products now being offered by Kiev. Knowing Kiev for some time, and knowing his love for historical craftsmanship, I contacted him about putting together a simple Confederate enlisted kepi, and the end result was outstanding. Anyone in the market for a new cap, or just curious about the products Kiev makes, drop him an email at Kiev Thomason

    Allow me to add some additional praise for Kiev's work.

    It is Outstanding!

    Pictured below, you'll see a Dbl Breasted Frock and Officers Trousers that he has made for me.

      Thanks Gents!
      I will be working on a web site soon.Just to let folks know.I will be off work from my real job for a few weeks and will be making some more stuff.So if anyone needsanything feel free to call 404 358 5611 or email me at kievandleah@comcast.net .I don't want to break the rules around here so it is best to contact me at home.I have had a few PM s about prices and items and I think its best to email me rather than post here.

      Thanks!

        For those who may have tried, Kiev got a little excited when typing his e-mail, and flubbed it up.

        This his e-mail:

            I purchased a kepi from Kiev last week-end and I'm very pleased with it. He 's also a good guy to deal with. He will definitely get my return business.

              Gents-

              Does Kiev have a website or is he offline only for sales? Thanks- Johnny

                    I believe Kiev is planning to apply for the Approved Vendor program. Eric and I talked about that a week ago and I talked with Kiev about it at Remembrance Day.

                    We'll keep you all posted on how that process goes.

                          Hey Kiev, the job is gonna prevent me from making it to W64. But give me a call anytime and we'll work out the details... or chat with Justin and Matt W. while you're there in Buffalo.

                              I own a vest, a cap pouch, a red overshirt (red shirt of death) and a Federal officer's sack coat made to my specification by Kiev. I am super pleased with what I got and belive me when I say that Kiev is doing very very good work. His sticking to period construction, materials, and methods are great and he continuely improves his craft. He is my go to guy for custom gear and "different" items.
