GANT apparel and lifestyle products

Gant is a quintessential American heritage brand that has evolved into a global premium lifestyle leader. Originally founded as a shirt-making operation in New Haven, Connecticut, the brand became famous for its innovative shirt designs, such as the button-down collar, the locker loop, and the box pleat. Its aesthetic is deeply rooted in the 'Ivy League Look,' blending East Coast American casualness with European sophistication.

Today, the brand's manufacturing operations are globalized, with production occurring in various countries including Portugal, Turkey, India, Vietnam, and China to leverage specific regional expertise in textiles and garment construction. While the brand started as a family-run business in the United States, its ownership transitioned through several hands before being acquired by its current Swiss-based parent company.

Now owned by the Maus Frères group, Gant continues to maintain its identity as a global lifestyle brand. The ownership focuses on high-end retail and market expansion, ensuring that the brand's historical American collegiate roots are preserved while catering to a modern, international clientele across clothing, footwear, and home accessories.
