can anyone tell me what size should i get for Gant Rugger Madras/Oxfords if i wear Gitman L?
measurements that i see seem all over the place and i hope gant shirts are shorter as gitman is too long for me.


Hate to break the news, but in my experience Gant Rugger Hugger fits similar to Gitman except the sleeves are about 1.5 inches longer

^, true but the Gant Hugger shoulders are also a little narrower.

ALSO: If anyone has this shirt from a couple seasons ago in Medium, PM me if you want to sell one. Slept, and would like to find it.

this is ridic my chest width didn't go up nor did i gain any weight i lost weight. yet somehow gitmans new smalls fit tight as my extra smalls from 2-3 seasons ago. they really need to go with a set of measurements and stick to them because theres no place i can try them on in person. measurements on websites keep varying.

i've owned 6 gitman vintage shirts before these ones.

Having the same issue with this season. Which shirt did you get? I bought the prison stripe chambray/oxford and it fits like Baby Gap. I could barely get it buttoned and the arms were so narrow it looked like I was wearing Underarmor.

I own 5-6 Gitman Vintage mediums from varying seasons and although they all fit slightly different, they still fit. However, this AW 2011 striped chambray/oxford in medium was completely unwearable.

i feel your pain. i got the husky hunter print and the moss green. they fit incredibly close to my extra smalls from previous seasons. i think they need to get quality control in there lol.

i wish the arms on these new ones were narrow mine are baggy as hell but i have boney arms. its strange how the p2p fits similar to my extra smalls yet the whale tail back is a lot more bigger. looks like i have a big lower hunchback..

what color chino's do you guys recommend to wear with the moss/green overdye oxford? it goes great with denim for me.

yea it was a given it looks good with denim, i've tried to wear it with my navy west point wings + horns didn't seem right on me. thanks for the suggestions. maybe will try to buy a pair of black chinos.

is it just me but even my extra small had the shirt tail flare in the back now that i went up to the small the shirt tail flare is even bigger but every where else the fit is good. is there a way to get rid of the flare in the back?

i hope its just the material and it'll settle down eventually.
