Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) is a clothing brand that adapts and modifies the core products of the pioneering American workwear brand Carhartt to create its own collections. Established in 1994 by Edwin Faeh, the brand’s audience is just as likely to associate its iconic yellow C motif with late 90s hip hop videos or skate clips, as they are with factories or manual labor. This distinction is key in defining what Carhartt WIP does. Carhartt WIP engages with different cultural spheres: from Detroit and Berlin’s symbiotic techno scenes, to skateboarding and its communities that span Paris, New York, and Seoul, to the contemporary art world. The brand channels these influences, representing the culture which has formed around it. This can be seen and felt in its collections, its imagery, and its choice of partners and collaborators. Today, Carhartt WIP operates over 100 brick and mortar retail stores across Europe, Asia, and the US, as well as working with select wholesale clients. Carhartt Workwear remains a separate entity with headquarters in the USA. Link to Carhartt WIP GDPR: https://www.carhartt-wip.com/de/service/privacy

The Fall/Winter 2024 campaign unfolds in an empty, remote location, as daylight fades into night and the boundaries of reality begin to shatter. Everyday scenes are interrupted by fragments of the uncanny: A hand on fire. Figures cloaked in smoke. Battle axes and angel wings. Inspired by the idea of suburban teenage boredom, rebellion, and elements of ritualistic fantasy, the campaign was conceived by the Paris-based creative agency Ill-Studio, with imagery by photographer Nadine Fraczkowski, and a video by director Theodor Guelat. The looks featured are taken from this season’s collection, and in their archetypal silhouettes and fabrications, offer a sense of timelessness and stability in an oneiric landscape. Creative Direction: Ill-Studio Photographer: Nadine Fraczkowski Director: Theodor Guelat DOP: Nadia Szymanska Production: Septembre00 Stylist: Juan Corrales Set Designer: Tom Schneider Hair Stylist: Joy Groomer: Whitney Kril Casting Director: Kyra Sophie Models: Jonah, Ana, Valentyn Music: Oon Ooff Audio #CarharttWIP

WIP magazine Issue 10. Out now. Spanning over 200 pages, the landmark 10th edition is presented with two covers. The first features New York musician CLIPS, who in an interview, discusses her online persona and why she has eschewed the advances of major labels. The second draws from the issue’s central dossier Clockwatchers, which examines the future of work in the face of a looming climate crisis, through essays, interviews, and visual interventions. We also speak to Baltimore musician Nourished by Time, Congolese sound and performance artist Cōvco, French design duo Hanabi, Brooklyn-based artist Diamond Stingily, and skater Maria Navarro. Additionally, we visit Cameroon’s Jail Time Records, and in Taipei, meet grillz artist Shiningmaker. Meanwhile, in Reading, England, filmmaker Cieron Magat examines teenage boredom against the backdrop of a UK high street. We also step into the vibrant world of artist Anthony Coleman, and travel to the outskirts of America with Robert LeBlanc. Elsewhere, the S/S24 collection is shot by photographers Catherine A LoMedico, Den Niwa and Tolya Titaev. The issue closes with author Geoffrey Mak in conversation with Hua Hsu, and an interview with Tokyo-based writer and theorist W. David Marx. WIP magazine Issue 10 is available at select global retailers, Carhartt WIP stores, and our online shop. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4ezmpij #CarharttWIP

For Spring/Summer 2024, Converse CONS and Carhartt WIP continue their ongoing partnership with two skate performance designs, drawing on both brands’ roots in skateboarding. Comprised of the One Star Academy Pro and the Chuck Taylor All Star Pro, the collaboration pays homage to 90s skate shoe designs and colorways. As such, both styles feature tri-panel, suede uppers in shades of brown, beige, and cream – also nodding to Carhartt WIP’s archival colors. High rubber foxing above the sole offers durability, while lateral triple stitching nods to Carhartt WIP’s archetypal jackets and work pants. Both styles are accented with co-branded logos on the tongue and CX foam sock liner. The Chuck Taylor All Star Pro Hi is a signature fit designed for skateboarding, and features lock-in elastic tongue straps, cushioning CX foam sock liners, and a CONS Traction Rubber outsole for grip, board feel, and flick support. The One Star Academy Pro, meanwhile, nods to its 90s predecessor, The Academy, with a classic star and two-stripe logo, yet offers improved board-feel and impact cushioning thanks to its CX foam. Launched in 2017, the Converse CONS x Carhartt WIP partnership merges functionality and performance with design sensibilities unique to both brands, and has seen silhouettes such as the One Star and Fastbreak Pro reworked in new, elevated iterations. The accompanying campaign for this collaboration was shot in Barcelona, Spain, by photographer Adrian Rios and videographer Natas3000, and features riders from the Carhartt WIP skate team.
