The first extensive look into the iconic Carhartt Work in Progress
label, from its origins in Detroit to its current existence as one
of the powerhouses of contemporary apparel. From the streets of
Detroit to cities the world over, Carhartt's outerwear has become
iconic of both work and play since Hamilton Carhartt developed his
first pair of overalls for railroad engineers in 1889. Proudly
sporting a union-made label, Carhartt's straightforward, rugged
clothing and working-class origins appealed as an authentic
expression of style. Carhartt Work in Progress (WIP), which began
twenty-five years ago as a fledgling European line, reinvented
these roots to draw a new trendsetting audience across the globe.
Carhartt WIP updated the original cuts of workwear to create
slimmer styles that have since become cult classics. From the U.S.
hip-hop crews of the 1980s to the European skate scene, Carhartt
WIP became a sure signifier of street style. With collaborations
with A.P.C., UDG, and Hiroshi Fujiwara/Fragment, and a network of
nearly seventy Work in Progress flagship stores in the world's most
stylish shopping districts--from New York's SoHo to London's East
End, Paris's Marais, and Tokyo's Harajuku--the brand has become one
of the most influential lifestyle brands in Europe. From the
Carhartt archives in Detroit and Dearborn, Michigan, to their
studios in Europe, this book provides access to never-before-seen
photography of Carhartt's designs to trace not only the development
of a fashion label, but also of youth culture itself.
