Bernard Gantmacher began forging his legacy by stitching up shirts in New York City’s Garment District, and founded Gant in 1949. Seventy-five years later, we are still perfecting the preppy American sportswear style we helped pioneer.

Reviving the Archive
Over the years, we've gathered vintage GANT pieces from across the globe, meticulously curating an archive that reflects our history and the legacy of preppy American sportswear. The Anniversary Collection includes a series of replicas based on these old treasures.
Varsity jacket, mid 1980s
This is one for the books; a full-leather varsity jacket from the 1980s, bought from someone who loved it and wore it to bits. We recreated it in the finest vegetable-tanned leather and switched it up with a regular rib collar. I don’t normally like to mess around with legacy pieces, but the update made it even better.
