Final Sale
A sack is a jacket cut straight, with no darts and no waist suppression, and it is the founding shape of American Ivy dress. Gant put the word on a shirt label as a statement of allegiance.

Sold as found · All vintage is final sale

Bernard Gantmacher, a Ukrainian immigrant who had made shirts for other people's labels first, founded the company with his sons in New Haven in 1949, a few blocks from Yale, and the Yale Co-op put the shirts on undergraduates. The family sold the business in the late 1960s, and in time the shirts stopped being cut in New Haven. A Hong Kong label is from after that.
