Carhartt Wip Mens

America's socialist history is stitched into each item in our men's Carhartt WIP collection. The brand's story began back in 1889 when Hamilton Carhartt started manufacturing overalls in cotton and denim with just four sewing machines and five employees. While there was plenty of demand for the hard-wearing garments from unions, it would be over a century before the style swaggered onto the streets, donned by rappers and graffiti artists who admired its durability and utilitarian aesthetic. As for those extra three letters? They stand for Work In Progress, the parent company that has since developed the uniforms into contemporary adaptations of these US archetypes. Here in our Selfridges locker, you'll find straight cuts and simple lines inspired by those very first pieces. From relaxed-fit joggers to oversized T-shirts, our Carhartt men's clothing is characterised by block colours and neutral shades. Functional zippers and practical pockets are scattered throughout, along with cosy ribbed cuffs and comfortable drawstring waists. Look out for our Selfridges Project Earth stamp too, calling out planet-friendly options across the range of Carhartt men's fashion.  Keep the sun at bay in a cotton-canvas cap with an embroidered logo. In wet weather, we recommend a water-resistant shell jacket. At the end of the day, kick back in a pair of cushioned slippers with a cold beer, the all-American way.
