Reliving Gitman Bros.


One of the most important pieces of clothing for a man is the shirt. The shirt is what makes the outfit different everyday. It is not uncommon for a man to bring only one suit with him on a business trip, but a different shirt to be worn with the suit everyday. The classic menswear designer, Gitman Brothers is known for their classic American shirts, but is now looking at their archives and recreating what they've made in the past. Gitman Brothers Vintage has selected their ultimate and timeless favorite fabrics and patterns such as poplin tartans, Oxford plaids and heavy chambray. Also they chose some of their other favorites including double sided brushed cotton flannels, colorful brushed Cotton Patterns, patchwork flannels and over-dyed Oxfords. Their selection is amazing, and you get the look of vintage, but still maintain a current style. Previously mentioned Haberdash in Chicago carries the entire collection of Gitman Brothers Vintage, and many other great shirts for men.
