Carhartt WIP

Founded in 1889 by its namesake Hamilton Carhartt, the Detroit-based brand began life creating high-quality workwear for manual labourers and the railroad workers across the USA. Carhartt’s ‘Work In Progress’ collection was launched by Edwin Faeh in 1994 to bring the authentic American designs to the European market. Trawling back through their eclectic archives, Carhartt’s WIP collection draws on their old work-pieces and re-imagines them for the urban environment.
