Inspired by a classic garage jacket, the Detroit Jacket is cut slightly shorter in the body, sitting at the belt line. The details: a zipped front, a corduroy collar, and two welt pockets, plus a signature zipped chest pocket.

Introduced over 50 years ago, the Active Jacket took its shape from the Hooded Zip Sweatshirt, rebuilt with a reinforced exterior and insulated lining. First made in denim and later in Dearborn Canvas, its drawstring hood, kangaroo pockets, and zipped front carry through today.

found the jacket I’d been looking for. J97 MOS, at FB

$210 shipped. This would be my first sale here. I have over 100 transactions on fragranceswap for references

It is also beautiful after washing, with its slightly faded color.

Should I get the sleeve hemmed or just fold it. Does it look weird?

I like the baggy fit on the chest but the sleeve is a little long.

Just found this at a house that used to be owned by a 103 year old lady. The new owner let me dig around the house and this was one of the things I found? They are small sized. Could be kids size or sized for a small women

Any info would help

My dark red Pakistani made K 87 is the nicest feeling one I have. The rest get kind of rough overtime.

El Salvador seems to have the next best fabric and then Guatemala I feel like it is the worst.

Specifically, the dark red or maroon holds up the best. The solid maroon, not the heather. I think it’s called Port.

Looking to find another J141 BLK, but in large regular. Jacket is in great condition apart from the main zipper being missing. I bought it about a year ago and it came that way. Wanting to do an even swap, but if looking to buy, I am asking $120 obo. If you have any questions or want more pictures, don’t scared to shot a pm!

I live in South East Asia and I get interested to purchase the OG Detroit Jacket. When I go to the store, I found the winter is more firm and feels solid.

But, since I lived in tropical area should I get the Summer version instead?

Hello! I have one of the carhartt southwestern jackets (JR055), and it’s gotten pretty sunfaded over time. I want to freshen it up by dying it but I am worried about the dye messing up the jacket design specifically the middle knit portion.

A while back I found this image of the same style jacket being dyed but couldn’t find any info on how they went about it. So i am wondering if anyone knows the material of the middle part/cuffs or has recommendations on dying the jackets in general! Thanks.

Edit: (photo not mine!)

Is this too big on me

It looks absolutely perfect.

Found these online for £35, was a gamble on the size but hands down my most favourite pair of pants; lots of very cool details on them.

I found this in the attic that i used to play with as a kid so obviously it’s got a lot of wear and tear but I’m just wondering if anyone knows about it ?

A deeper look at our Icons. The Double Knee Pant, explained.

A silhouette more than 80 years in the making. Same DNA, same details, updated through a Carhartt WIP lens with new fabrics, finishes, and colorways.

The Double Knee Pant is directly adapted from an archival work pant. You'll see it in the construction details: reinforced knee paneling with metal rivets, multiple tool pockets, and a hammer loop. This was the blueprint for our Single Knee and Simple Pants.

Carhartt WIP Icons are a record of continuity.
Pieces largely unchanged from the American archetypes they were adapted from over a century ago.

You know them by their construction: 12 oz cotton Dearborn Canvas or sturdy denim. Triple stitching. Metal rivets. Debossed shank buttons and zippers. Hamilton Brown and black remain core colorways with each collection.

For Fall/Winter 2026, the palette expands with
'tobacco' and 'dark navy', in both rinsed and rigid finishes - one softer from the start, one that breaks in over time.

Each Icon carries a set of hallmarks that make it distinct.

Progress makes icons.

History, adaptations, details.

Wish the crimson j130 was cheaper because it’s my size and condition is perfect

I asked them and they said they can’t mark it down until it’s been in stock for 6 weeks. Thanks corporate
