About Carhartt

Carhartt started making workwear for railroad workers in 1889 and never stopped perfecting the art of building clothes that last. From their Dearborn, Michigan roots, they've become the gold standard for durability in everything from classic duck canvas jackets to modern streetwear. What makes Carhartt special isn't just the heavy-duty construction, it's how their workwear DNA translates into casual wear that actually works for skating and riding.

The brand's signature pieces like their hooded sweatshirts, cargo pants, and beanies bring that same bulletproof quality to everyday wear. Carhartt's casual jackets layer perfectly over hoodies for cold sessions, while their pants and shorts are cut for movement without sacrificing the rugged construction they're known for. The brand has mastered the balance between function and style, creating pieces that work as hard as you do whether you're on the job site or hitting spots downtown.
