Blue Archive Madras

A Gitman Vintage spring/summer collection is never complete without madras fabrics from our own archives. This tan and blue-based colorway was originally released in our SS79 collection, just one year after we manufactured the first shirt at our Ashland, PA factory. This season, however, we've gone straight to the source for a true Madras fabric. Woven in Chennai (formerly Madras), this fabric was built custom from the ground up, with hand dyed yarns and a hand-woven finish.
