Carhartt Whitsome Shirt Jacket

Boasting a workwear-inspired aesthetic that pays homage to the brand’s blue-collar backing, this all-black Whitsome Shirt Jacket from Carhartt arrives as a layered look staple from the brand’s latest FW20 collection. Made from 100% cotton corduroy with a resilient and highly durable 8-wale composure throughout, this long-sleeve midweight jacket is styled with adjustable cuffs, a straight-cut hemline and with a breathable nylon-taffeta interior lining to help implement more comfortable day-on-day wear. With its uniquely garment-washed toning and its vertical-quilted exterior, this shirt jacket is uplifted through the addition of two welt-style pockets above the waistline and with two button-down patch pockets either side of the chest for a more functional, storage-minded finish. The 6-button placket flows seamlessly through the centre of the chest from its pointed cord-collar, whilst the signature ‘C’ brand patch across the left chest pocket helps round this utilitarian-inspired jacket off in line with the brand’s distinctive aesthetic.

Welcoming numerous collaborations to their name, including those with APC, Patta, PACCBET and notorious fashion designer Adam Kimmel, Carhartt is a brand fuelled by a desire to bring purpose-minded utilitarian stylings back into the contemporary limelight. Never one to shy away from what works best, Carhartt and its Euro-centered WIP line have continued to dominate the market since its OG establishment in 1889, whilst the brand’s creative ventures and boundary-pushing authenticity have struck them with a loyal following that knows no boundaries.
