Carhartt T-shirt

Carhartt is an iconic American brand known primarily for its heavy-duty workwear, including jackets, coats, overalls, and t-shirts. Founded in 1889 by Hamilton Carhartt in Detroit, Michigan, the company originally specialized in making durable overalls for railroad workers. Today, it remains a family-owned business headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan, though it has evolved into a global lifestyle brand popular in both industrial and fashion circles.

While the brand's heritage is deeply rooted in the United States, its manufacturing processes are distributed globally to meet demand. Carhartt products are manufactured in multiple countries, including the USA (under the 'Made in the USA' line), Mexico, Honduras, Vietnam, and India. The brand is managed by the original Carhartt family through Carhartt, Inc., and its European operations are often handled and licensed through Carhartt WIP (Work In Progress), which focuses on a more streetwear-oriented aesthetic.
