Thanks! It certainly does. Appreciate it! By the way, what size did you happen to get and do you know how long the shirt is at its back length? Thanks again!

I'm a large in everything EP, but I'm afraid I don't have a measuring tape to help you with the length. I would imagine Mike can chime in with that.

Is it shorter than you would like compared to other shirts you have or is the length good? Just slightly concerned because another poster said his EP x Gitman shirts were shorter than his other ones.

I’m an Epaulet XL and I have literally dozens of stock and EFF EP shirts from Gitman, EPLA, New England, Individualized, etc. and I have never noticed any of them being appreciably longer or shorter.

Man.. old school Mike with short hair in the fit pics...

@peppercorn78 haha I know.. whatever happened to that guy!?! He's now some kind of bougie surfer wanna-be in the Southbay of Los Angeles.

@M635Guy looking sharp.. have a great trip!

Any chance the gitman pattern length can be tweaked on the EFF or is that a no go? All my EP x GB run way shorter than all my other stock EP shirts, so much so that I don’t really wear them

Is it possible to request that the darts be left out for these shirts?

@esoxm @soaped

Sorry guys, we can't change anything on the pattern for these, so every shirt will be made to the usual specs with the chest pocket and darts.

The length should be really consistent on all Epaulet & Gitman shirts, we use the same exact cutting pattern for all of them. The only real exceptions would be stuff like pure linen (tends to make up a bit larger) and anything that's washed or dyed. There were fit differences between Gitman, New England, and the Portugal shirts though. NE product is discontinued entirely, and all of our Portugal stuff is the Capri shape, which is distinct onto itself.


@mothball thanks for posting.. that thing is so awesome!

Hey Mike, I ordered one of the Gitman florals recently and wrote in the notes to have it made with a camp collar. Is it still possible to do that? Just double checking here.

Okay guys, it's our first Gitman Bros EFF in almost 8 months. Got some awesome stuff in two categories: Nutzo Novelties and Biz Casual.

Nutzo Novelties is up now, will shoot videos shortly. If you guys dig the little sailboat fabrics (last ones on the list), then there's only enough to make one of each shirt.

I missed out on the little sailboat fabrics and do not see pictures of them still on the Epaulet site but now I'm curious what they looked like. Can you post up a picture of them?

Could you show us the sample Nuthin But A Gangster Party shirt on a mannequin or spread out on a surface? I would love to see what the full shirt print looks like. Of course if it's not too much to ask for. Thanks Mike!


I have the Nuthin But a Gangster Party in the same make-up and it's one of my absolute favorite shirts. It gets worn nearly all year round except when it gets brutally hot and it works great with shorts, jeans, chinos, etc.

Sorry guys, we can't change anything on the pattern for these, so every shirt will be made to the usual specs with the chest pocket and darts.

I have a couple Gitman shirts from a previous EFF you did with them. Those ones I was able to get made up without darts. Can you comment on how much of a difference (in terms of 0.X") the darts make in the body/waist of the shirts?

I briefly owned one of those, could never figure a way to wear it that I liked. @tricky you make it look easy.

That shirt is superb, btw.

Thanks a lot.The shirt is super light and perfect for hot days. Think I've been wearing it regularly for around 8 years!
