From Workwear to Streetwear Icon: Carhartt WIP Must-Haves

When Workwear Meets Streetwear
Few brands have transformed workwear into a cult phenomenon like Carhartt WIP. Born from American heritage and reinterpreted with a European spirit, the brand has conquered skaters, DJs, artists and streetwear enthusiasts all over the world. From rugged jackets to cargo pants, Carhartt WIP has become synonymous with authenticity and timeless style.
Carhartt WIP (Work In Progress) was founded in 1889 in Detroit. Created in the early 90s to adapt American workwear to the needs of a stylish, urban generation, WIP has built its identity through subcultures and high-profile collaborations. In this article, we explore the brand's iconic pieces, analyzing their origins, materials, and cultural impact.

Brief History and Philosophy of Carhartt WIP
In the 90s, Edwin Faeh founded Carhartt Work In Progress after obtaining the rights to distribute Carhartt in Europe. But WIP soon went further: it began to reinterpret the historic pieces of Carhartt workwear, adapting them with more modern cuts, new colors and an aesthetic sensibility linked to the world of skate, techno and street.
Carhartt WIP's core values are based on a clear and consistent philosophy. Each piece is designed to last over time, designed to resist wear and tear and accompany the wearer day after day. Functionality is at the heart of every detail: every pocket, every seam has a precise purpose, nothing is left to chance. Authenticity guides every choice: there is no room for forced hype, but only for a sincere style, rooted in its own identity. And finally, the timeless aesthetic: Carhartt WIP does not follow trends. It anticipates them, defines them, always remaining true to itself.

Iconic Pieces – The Heart of the Brand

The Detroit Jacket is one of Carhartt WIP's most recognizable symbols. It is a short jacket with a boxy fit, a front zip and a characteristic chest pocket. Usually made of resistant materials such as Dearborn Canvas or denim, it represents the contemporary reinterpretation of the classic American work jacket.
What makes it iconic is its ability to cross styles and subcultures: it has become an item of urban resistance, worn by skaters, rappers and internationally renowned artists, from Travis Scott to Earl Sweatshirt.
Over time, the Detroit Jacket has evolved into numerous variations: fleece-lined or thermal-lined versions, velvet or ripstop models, and a color palette that ranges from classic Hamilton Brown to Black and Navy Blue. A piece that perfectly embodies the spirit and versatility of the brand.

The Michigan Coat is an authentic homage to Carhartt’s workwear roots. With four front pockets, a sturdy construction, and a thick corduroy collar, it harks back to 1920s work coats. It’s a piece that combines utility with vintage sophistication, making it an ideal choice for layering in the colder seasons. Available in waxed canvas, denim, and oversized “OG” versions, it also comes in seasonal colors that renew its timeless aesthetic each year.

Designed to tackle harsh climates, the Active Jacket was born as a technical piece but soon conquered the streets and urban subcultures. Equipped with a hood, front zip and sporty cut, it is made with resistant materials and often lined to offer warmth and comfort. This piece has become a symbol of functional streetwear, worn by artists such as Tyler, The Creator and beloved in the skate world. Its variations range from canvas to fleece, up to technical nylon for the most modern versions.

The Double Knee Pant is the perfect blend of workwear and street fashion. Originally designed for carpenters and construction workers, these pants feature reinforced knees, a relaxed fit and plenty of pockets, making them extremely practical. Today, they have become a must-have for skaters and fashionistas thanks to their sharp silhouette and utility look. Available in denim, canvas and a range of classic and seasonal colours, they easily adapt to different styles.

Cargo Pants represent the ideal balance between military functionality and urban style. With large side pockets and a fit that varies from the wide cut of the Regular to the tapered of the Aviation, they are a key reference for 2000s streetwear. Their versatility is remarkable: perfect for a technical or relaxed look, they come in light fabrics for the summer and colors such as camouflage, sand and olive green. A garment that combines practicality and identity.

Carhartt WIP Sweatshirts , whether hooded or crewneck, represent the perfect balance between comfort and quality. Often decorated with the embroidered logo or with discreet labels, as in the Chase Program, they are designed to last and to easily pair with any other piece in the collection. From monochromatic versions to street graphics and capsule editions, these sweatshirts are a staple of the contemporary wardrobe.

Why Carhartt WIP Works
Carhartt WIP works because it combines substance and style. The construction quality is at the center: technical materials, precise cuts and no compromises. The design stands out for its timelessness, derived from the functional nature of workwear. The square logo has become an icon and a symbol of belonging.
Carhartt WIP is the perfect example of how an industrial root can become a pillar of global streetwear. Its iconic pieces – from the Detroit Jacket to the Cargo Pant – speak a language made of concreteness, style and authenticity. In an era where fashion often changes face every season, Carhartt WIP remains true to itself. And that's exactly why it works.
