Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This jacket features a slightly cropped, boxy silhouette that sits higher on the hips than a standard coat
• The regular fit provides enough room through the shoulders and chest for natural movement
• The garment fits true to size for its intended authentic workwear profile
• Here at the store we recommend taking your usual size

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash at 40°C or below to maintain the strength of the Dearborn Canvas fibres
• Wash with similar earthy tones to preserve the green pigment
• Hang to dry naturally to prevent unnecessary shrinkage, though it can be tumbled dry at up to 60°C if required
• Use a warm iron up to 200°C to keep the canvas looking sharp and well-structured
• Avoid using fabric softeners as these can break down the durable nature of the heavy cotton canvas

Carhartt WIP Detroit Jacket - Our FAQs

1. How stiff is the Dearborn Canvas?
   The "Stone" canvas has been treated to be slightly more supple than raw canvas, but it still possesses a firm, durable handle. Like all high-quality workwear, it will soften and adapt to your body shape the more you wear it.

2. Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
   This version is unlined, making it a perfect shell for spring and autumn. For winter use, we suggest layering it over a heavyweight fleece or a thick hoodie to provide the necessary insulation.

3. What is the benefit of the cropped fit?
   The shorter length was originally designed for workers to easily access their tool belts. Today, it provides a modern, boxy aesthetic that prevents the fabric from bunching when you are seated.

4. Will the organic cotton shrink?
   Because the fabric is robust and has undergone initial processing, shrinkage is minimal. Following the 40-degree wash and hang-dry instructions will ensure the jacket maintains its original fit.
