Button Down Graph Check Navy - Big/Tall
The verdict
Fit
Big/tall cut with barrel cuffs and button-down collar. Check pattern is small-scale, so it reads as a neutral pattern rather than bold. Conservative Gitman fit throughout.
Quality
Cotton construction matches Gitman's standard oxford line. Pattern doesn't affect durability; this is a utility dress shirt with patterned variation.
Price check
At $235, priced identically to the solid and striped oxfords—mid-premium for a patterned workhouse shirt in big/tall sizing.
Best for
Tall professionals who want pattern variety in their dress-shirt rotation without departing from Gitman's straightforward, durable aesthetic.
Care
Navy checks can run dye in first wash; separate wash and use cool water to prevent color bleed onto lighter garments.

What owners report about Gitman Vintage button-ups
Owners report shirts that are unusually well made — made-in-USA construction with a heavier oxford cloth than most, which softens with washing and holds up over years of wear. Reviewers say the shirts feel built to last and improve with age. The recurring complaint is sizing: fit can vary substantially from shirt to shirt even within the same labeled size, enough that longtime reviewers advise trying on in person or buying only where returns are free. Price also draws grumbles — reviewers call the shirts expensive, though most concede the construction backs it up.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently praise the construction and the substantial oxford cloth, saying the shirts feel like they will last a lifetime and get better with age.
- Watch out for
- Sizing inconsistency is the recurring complaint — reviewers report shirts in the same labeled size fitting dramatically differently, along with a high price.
- Sizing
- Owners advise treating each shirt individually: fit varies between pieces even in the same size, so check per-garment measurements or buy where returns are risk-free.
