Japanese Big Red Cotton/Linen Madras

Description

The Big Red Madras Button Down from Gitman Vintage is made from a lightweight 67% Cotton and 33% Linen blend cloth loomed in Japan with slub yarns for a subtle texture and innovative take on an archival pattern and palette. The Madras fabric was popularized during the 1960's by the Baby Boom generation's ivy school style, known for its natural color evolutions for that worn-in casual look that will become softer and perfectly faded with repeated wearings and washes. Our modern short length button down comes replete with Gitman's original details like chalk buttons, locker loop, and a final horizontal button hole in green thread. This shirt is produced in the new modern slim fit with a slightly less dramatic hem sweep and straighter body, as a variation to the signature fit that remains the same tailored "just right" cut for most body types. Gitman Vintage shirts are classic, simple, and original, and have a casual sophistication that makes them a standard wardrobe piece for many well-dressed men. We are unique in our offerings of Gitman Vintage by neck sizing for all you gents who are between alpha sizes; you now have the opportunity for a perfectly fitting Gitman right out of the box.
