Carhartt WIP, (WIP means “Work in progress’’) are most well-known for their urban style, streetwear and skatewear look, which can easily be associated with workwear because of their strong qualities and durable products.

Carhartt workwear was established in 1889 by Hamilton Carhartt, who was a machine operator in Detroit in the USA. As with other hardworking railroad workers, he needed workwear made from the most durable materials that could withstand the hard work. Hamilton quickly saw an opportunity to run a business based on tailored solutions and selling his workwear made from durable canvas to the whole of Detroit, Michigan. Hamilton Carhartt’s brand of workwear quickly became well-known for its durable qualities.
