Heritage & History
Max Gitman opened the Ashland Shirt & Pajama Company in Ashland, Pennsylvania in 1932, in the coal mining town where he settled after emigrating to America. The company grew steadily through the mid-20th century as Ashland's textile industry expanded, eventually becoming one of the anchor manufacturers in the region. As overseas competition hollowed out American shirt manufacturing through the 1980s and 1990s, Gitman Brothers made the choice to stay — investing in quality rather than competing on price with overseas production.
Gitman Vintage, launched in 2008, gave the brand a direct-to-consumer presence and introduced Gitman's craftsmanship to a new generation of clothing enthusiasts who valued American-made over fast fashion. The Vintage line brought the same shirt-making expertise into bold prints, oxford weaves, and madras patterns that became collector items. Gitman Bros. is now one of the last American shirt manufacturers with all production genuinely remaining in the United States.
Made in Ashland, Pennsylvania
Every Gitman Bros. shirt is cut, sewn, and finished at the Ashland, Pennsylvania factory. The manufacturing process uses fine cotton shirting fabrics, with pattern-matched buttons, precisely sewn collar construction, and the close tolerances of a manufacturer that competes on quality rather than volume. The dress shirt line includes point, spread, and button-down collar options in Oxford cloth, poplin, and twill weaves. The sport shirt and casual collections use chambray, madras, and printed fabrics with the same care applied to the formal line.
Gitman Brothers dress shirts are available on Amazon. The Ashland factory's output is limited by the skilled workforce available — Gitman cannot simply expand production by adding a shift, because shirt-making at this level requires experienced operators who understand the subtleties of fabric handling, collar setting, and button placement. That constraint is also what makes a Gitman shirt distinctive: each piece receives the attention of a factory that has been getting shirt construction right in the same Pennsylvania town for over ninety years.
