What to know about Gitman Vintage
Gitman Vintage is the archive-driven line of Gitman Bros., the shirtmaker Max Gitman founded in Ashland, Pennsylvania in 1932 and relaunched as a consumer brand in 1978. Launched in 2008, it pulls fabrics from the company's old line books and reworks them into camp-collar, band-collar and oxford button-down shirts, plus pajama sets, overshirts and shorts. Prints, madras, seersucker and Japanese, US and European cloths anchor the range. The original Ashland factory closed in 2020, though the company states production remains entirely in the USA.

How Gitman Vintage fits
Overall fit
true to size
Most people report that Gitman Vintage shirts fit true to size in a traditional American way — comfortable through the chest and waist with a fuller cut than contemporary slim shirting — with camp-collar and short-sleeve styles reading the boxiest.
Tip: Take your usual size for a classic, slightly relaxed drape, and only size down if you want a shirt that follows the body closely.

By category
| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jackets | true to size | relaxed overshirt/shirt-jacket cut with room for a layer underneath | Stick with your usual size — the overshirts are already cut with layering room, so sizing up can look oversized. |
| Shirts & overshirts | true to size | classic/regular cut with a straight body, moderate room through the chest and waist and generous armholes; camp-collar and band-collar versions are boxier than the oxford button-downs | Order your normal size; guys between sizes or wanting a slim silhouette often go down one, especially in short-sleeve camp collars. |
