Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) is the avant-garde way of living the Carhartt brand,
reshaping the outstanding Carhartt legacy.
In 1889, Hamilton Carhartt founded the Carhartt company in Detroit. His first products
were work overalls made of denim fabric and duck, commonly called canvas. This
later became Carhartt´s trademark fabric. Since the early years the brand became
dedicated to providing Best In Class apparel, tailored to meet the highest standards
of quality, durability and comfort.
Founded in 1994, Work In Progress initiated a distribution network for Carhartt across
Europe, introducing a selection of classic products from the original work wear range
into a new market.
Success was immediate; the authentic Carhartt products quickly became popular with
both fans of traditional US heritage garments and with the nascent European urban
culture scene.
The first product range designed exclusively by WIP for Europe followed in 1997. Since
then, under license and never without the expressed consent of the company HQ in
Dearborn, Michigan, Carhartt WIP has carefully adapted, re-interpreted and re-fitted
work wear cuts for the demands of an active life in the urban environment, remaining
true to Carhartts core values: quality, durability and comfort and becoming the globally
respected contemporary brand that is today.
