Why choose a Carhartt WIP fleece?

American workwear heritage with a streetwear twist

Since 1889, Carhartt has been creating durable wardrobes, built for work and made to last. With Carhartt WIP, its European streetwear branch, this heritage is reimagined as urban pieces with a clean, easy-to-wear style that keeps the brand's utilitarian DNA in a modern silhouette. The Carhartt fleece continues this tradition: a warm, understated layer, instantly recognisable, designed for everyday city life or casual outings, suitable for both men and women.

Polyester fleece and taffeta lining: warmth and lasting finishes

The most popular range is made from 100% polyester fleece, chosen for its soft feel and excellent heat retention. Key models feature a nylon taffeta lining in the body, a finish that enhances comfort and durability. Details reflect the Carhartt WIP spirit: zipped side pockets, chest pocket with embroidered logo, clean lines and easy-to-match colours, from black to khaki, brown, blue or camouflage print.

Some fleeces even come with a hood, perfect for extra protection on chilly winter days.

How to wear and care for your Carhartt fleece?

On its own or layered under a jacket

Worn alone, the Carhartt fleece gives a direct, graphic look with a controlled volume. Layered, it slips easily under a jacket, especially in the sleeveless version, to add warmth without bulk. Pieces from the Carhartt Chase selection naturally fit this minimalist, functional style, perfect for an urban sport look.

Low-temperature wash to preserve the fleece

Washing at a low temperature helps maintain the fleece's appearance and the quality of the finishes. With a simple care routine, the fabric keeps its feel and shape for longer, season after season. Positive customer feedback often highlights the durability of Carhartt products, whether t-shirts or even classic-collar shirts.
