Carhartt WIP Detroit Jacket

Crafted from heavy duty 12 oz Dearborn cotton canvas, the Carhartt WIP Detroit Jacket in Tobacco/Black Rigid solves the problem of thin midseason jackets wearing down under constant daily use. This unlined workwear icon features a sturdy fabric density that resists abrasion while softening naturally over time to mold to your body. Fitted with a corduroy top collar, a full length front zip, and functional utility pockets, it offers durable torso protection and reliable warmth for transitional seasonal weather.

Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• The brand notes that this garment is cut for a relaxed, slightly cropped fit around the waistline.
• Carhartt WIP recommends to choose your regular size for a tailored classic cut, or size up if you prefer heavy fleece layers underneath.
• Bi swing back pleats provide extra shoulder room for easy arm rotation when reaching or driving.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash cold at 30 degrees with similar dark colours to protect the canvas dye.
• Close all zips and snap fastenings prior to washing to protect the fabric surface.
• Hang dry naturally on a wide hanger away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Do not tumble dry or dry clean, as excessive heat can shrink unlined rigid cotton canvas.

Carhartt WIP Detroit Jacket - Our FAQs
