      I think it can depend where you fall on the size spectrum.  I have a good handful of Gitman shirts, all in size large.  They are definitely more generous fitting than my IHSH-21 which is also in a large.  The shirts are very good for the price I think.  No, they aren't super overbuilt like the IH shirts but at 1/2 the price I wouldn't expect that either.  For oxfords they are very well made, nice buttons that are solidly attached and they hold up (and wash up) very nicely in my experience.  I think the collar is one of the best things about them, they have the nicest height, shape, and roll to their button down collars.  Oxford cloth is nice and substantial, but the new Japanese oxford-chambray fabric they are using on some styles this year is my favorite.  It's lighter weight but just has something that I really like that is hard to describe.

        ^ I couldn't have asked for a better write-up. If I am a medium in most–if not all--IH tops, would you recommend opting for a small or going with the same size?

          Alright, I now received the shirt in XL. And if you have long arms (I need 26 inches) this is not the shirt. The sleeves are still to short and the cut is now quite baggy. L was fitting much better except for the sleeves. I should have kept that and just wear it with sleeves rolled up.
          All in all a nice shirt, just not for slim guys with long arms. But I have that problem with most shirts.

                I'm a XXL in most Iron Heart shirts, but do have a slim fitting IHSH-21 in XL. I use L in Gitman Vintage, so I would definately size down.

                      The bottom two plaids are bangers.

                        got my grubby paws on two larges & i they are nice shirts (photos this evening).  the construction & fit are great & i can wear tucked or untucked & they still look pretty good.

                        on the hunt for a blackwatch plaid in a L for less than retail (so i can match my kids school uniforms  ;D)

                        not sure if i would do retail on these, but you know, i say that about most things these days

                                Backed. Unless it's IH items but that goes without saying…

                                  the cuffs & the collars on these shirts are strong & seem to be constructed to take plenty of abuse & still last a while. i have shirts from other manufaters & the difference in those two areas are what really stands out about these shirts.

                                  thanks to a great guy that must of had the holiday spirit i scored a nice bundle of really grade A+ shirts:

                                  any body with Gitman Vintage shirts in size L, with reasonable asking prices, i'm all ears.

                                    I'm cold. Must be because I gave away all my Gitmans… Glad they arrived and that you are happy with them! Apparently I am a Medium.

                                      yeah i think you would be a medium based on the way these Larges fit me. . . . don't worry they are getting plenty of play (all bright & sh!t) & i have to get up flicks doing my old man steez with my nice Baracuda that i snagged from some nice gentleman.

                                        Hahaha, yeah most definitely. Somehow, I am still awaiting an item from a gentleman in BK? 😉

                                            No seriously. I know you sent it and I never looked at tracking. We got 3 packages delivered today but maybe it will show later. Every mail carrier is beyond swamped right now. Not that it makes up for the slowness from BK to NYC. I will keep u posted via PM.

                                            Now show me some Gitman's people!!!
