Gitman Vintage Denim Railroad Stripe Work Shirt
New to our denim lineup is the hickory stripe, or railroad stripe, button down. The 6oz 100% cotton fabric harkens back to the days of railroad building in the American West, when this style of fabric was worn by workers in the form of hats, pants, overalls, shirts, and more. The finely layered stripes were meant to obscure oil stains earned at work, but we just think they look cool.
This Work Shirt version features two button-through chest pockets and a button-free collar for a more casual, workwear inspired look.

About the Brand
In 1932, Brooklyn based shirt-maker Max Gitman left New York and opened the Ashland Shirt & Pyjama Company in the coal mining town of Ashland, Pennsylvania. With his two sons, Alfred & Sheldon, he ran the factory as a contract shop until 1978 when the Gitman Bros. brand was born. Today, they are one of the few remaining shirt-makers with all production based in the USA.
Launched in 2008, Gitman Vintage pays tribute to the brands rich heritage with a unique interpretation of the past. Each season, They return to the company archives and select fabrics from old line books, tweaking them with dyes and reworking patterns, scale and construction. Their philosophy has always been to bridge the old and the new, so they continue to honor the importance of the button down Oxford and classic chambray while continually pushing the boundaries of a traditional shirt-based collection with everything from pineapple prints to Japanese indigos and rip-stop nylon.
