Carhartt WIP has introduced its Spring/Summer 2022 collection, unveiling a new colour palette and construction methods as well as unexplored themes and ideas.
Notable pieces from the collection — including the Double Knee Pant and Michigan Coat — have been given a pigment dye treatment, a technique that leaves the items in a washed-out, yet saturated aesthetic. Elsewhere, a selection of classic workwear silhouettes have been deconstructed, then spliced back together. As a result, fabrics such as canvas, ripstop, corduroy, and twill all appear on the same item, likewise, other silhouettes have been designed with a similar approach, such as a Michigan Coat base that features sleeves and pocket detailing taken from an Active Jacket.
In addition to the modified staples, this season also looks to the military and outdoor-inspired garments for Carhartt WIP’s new “Tide” camouflage print. Taking cues from hiking and outdoor apparel of the 1980s, the lineage combines soft, natural fabrics like garment-dyed cotton poplin and seersucker with a performance-orientated aesthetic. Rounding out the collection is a selection of t-shirts, sweats, and shirts, dressed in graphic and all-over prints.
Take a look through the selects below and head over the Carhartt WIP webstore to see the range in full.
