Carhartt Johnson Shorts

A pastel-hued colourway new for SS20, these decent purple Johnson Shorts from Carhartt arrive as both a street and skatewear staple well-suited to the change in seasons. Made from 100% cotton ‘midvale’ twill and styled to a regular fitting with lowered waist, these above-the-knee shorts are further defined by the bartack reinforced stitching, colour-matched belt loops and secure button-fastened zippered fly. Fusing utilitarian purpose with urbanised practicality, these robust and durable shorts have been uniquely garment-dyed for a more ‘worn-in’ aesthetic, whilst the two waistline pockets and two button-down pockets across the rear supply ample on-the-go storage should it be needed. A signature square-label ‘C’ brand patch is embroidered above the rear-right pocket whilst the design’s overall laid-back vibe is ever-loyal to Carhartt’s legacy.

A brand that has actively challenged the status-quo of utilitarian workwear styling for well-over 130 years, Carhartt is wholly dedicated to upholding its famed yet straightforward design style. Siphoning influence from America’s industrial backbone, local cultural communities and from the ever-evolving realm of both skate and urban street scenes, Carhartt offers a little piece of clothing heritage to any like minded individual searching for premium-quality apparel and a fascinating back-story to match.
