Anybody have any experience with the Large versus the XL shirts? Like how incremental of a difference is it? Thinking of trying to size down as the 2 XL's I have are a bit better than my Gitman Vintage Larges, but still could fit slightly better.
I'm having the same conundrum. I used to wear Gitman larges but they've gotten to be too big. I can just barely fit into a Gitman medium but they are very slim fitting on me and I get a slight pulling across the chest (and then I go to put on a jacket and it pulls like crazy). Not sure if Epaulet large or XL would be better. May have an April trip to NYC in the works so I suppose I can wait and find out then.
I asked Mike about Navy Label shirts too. He said they're getting 7 new styles of Navy Label shirts in a few weeks.
Uh-oh. These things are almost a perfect fit on me.

If I had any computer skills this is exactly what I would have done. I'd size up, cause it probably will shrink a touch, especially if you put it in the dryer.

Dude, ever since our denim convo we've been on the same wavelength. 10 oz French Blue Duck, Natty Chrom Boots...and the snorkel parka...the cold weather version of what you had on today.
I find that I need to go up one size from Gitman in Epaulet shirts. Gitman L = Epaulet XL.
I just ordered a Gitman medium (I'm 6'0 and 160 lbs). I have no experience with Gitman or Epaulet shirts...so not sure if I should have went with small but I was fearing the arms would be too short on them. With the medium even if it isn't slim on me I can get it tailored. Lets see how it goes.
Awesome haul! Those wool-silk twills look great, I got a pair of Rudys in that fabric, should be here tomorrow
I think you are going to be very happy with these.

I'll let you know my inseam and you can get them tailored before you send them over too
I might not have to sell you mine. If there's fabric left, if may be possible for Mike to take an order for these when he does the next round of Factory Finds. Sand basket weave is definitely a warm weather weight and wool-silk twill isn't too heavy, so you wouldn't even be too far off the season cycle even with living in the desert...

I'm in this exact boat, size wise. My Epaulet XL's probably have the best sleeves I've ever seen though. I may just order a large as a sample to see for myself.

That tie is total killer NYI, is that one of your own?
