At Urban Industry We Recommend These For

Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• Official sizing from the brand recommends taking your regular size for a classic regular fit.
• Carhartt WIP notes to select your usual size if you want enough room for mid-layers underneath without feeling restrictive.
• Flexible ribbed trimming at the waist ensures the hem stays close to the body while moving.
• Standard sleeve lengths and cut give a comfortable, clean profile compared to the oversized OG fitting.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool 30-degree cycle to preserve the rigid canvas fibers and deep dye tone.
• Turn the jacket inside out and zip up the front fastener prior to washing.
• Line dry naturally away from direct heat sources or harsh sunlight.
• Do not tumble dry, bleach, or dry clean, as high heat can degrade the canvas structure.

Carhartt WIP Active Jacket - Our FAQs

1. What does 'Rigid' canvas mean for this jacket? Rigid means the canvas is unwashed and untreated from the mill, giving it a stiffer initial feel that breaks in naturally over time to match your body shape.
2. How warm is the lining inside the Active Jacket? The body is fully lined with soft, insulated micro-fleece, while the sleeves feature smooth nylon lining, making it well-suited for winter conditions.
3. How does this standard Active Jacket differ from the OG Active Jacket? The standard Active Jacket features a regular, modern fit across the chest and shoulders, whereas the OG version is cut wider and boxier with dropped shoulders.
4. Will the Tobacco color fade after washing? Over time and through repeated washing, the rigid canvas will naturally develop lighter wear marks along seams and flex points, creating a unique vintage appearance.
5. Is this jacket windproof? The dense 12 oz Dearborn Canvas weave creates a natural barrier against wind, keeping you warm when paired with the fleece lining.
