Carhartt WIP Spring/Summer 2026 Collection Preview
The Spring/Summer 2026 preview collection from Carhartt WIP reflects the gradual shift out of winter into the warmer months, with a focus on raw and washed denim pieces, overdyed jersey and canvas, and heritage-style outerwear.
This season, denim becomes a blank canvas for exploration, emerging in a myriad of washes, tones, and blends. Classic, rigid denim remains a cornerstone, applied to styles like the double-layer Women’s OG Arctic Jacket and men’s OG Double Knee Pant.
The collection also introduces a grind-wash denim, which offers a faded, worn-in look, which has been created by hand. Additionally, a hybrid polycotton denim, applied to Tigan Shirt Jacket and Women’s Louis Shirt Jacket, takes cues from industrial uniforms, and features a semi-lustrous, rigid finish with contrasting white topstitching.
Canvas and jersey pieces also appear in an array of washes, executed in dusky shades of burgundy, brown, and gray. These are complemented by tactile flannel shirts in earth-tone checks.
Meanwhile, outerwear references heritage silhouettes, such as the Adair Coat, which is inspired by a traditional fireman jacket and bears metal clip detailing, and the Shepton Jacket, which nods to a classic B-6 flight jacket.
The Spring/Summer 2026 preview collection will be available at Carhartt WIP stores and selected retailers, as well as carhartt-wip.com and the Carhartt WIP App.

Established in 1994 by Edwin Faeh, Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) develops its own collections based on original Carhartt workwear. The brand combines authentic adaptations of these robust American archetypes, while engaging with the subcultures that have embraced it.

Carhartt WIP opened its first store in London in 1997 and today operates over 80 brick and mortar locations worldwide. It also has its own skate team and music department, while supporting an array of artists and releasing various in-house publications. Since 2010, Carhartt WIP has worked with a number of like-minded collaborators, including A.P.C., Converse, Fragment Design, Junya Watanabe, Nike, Underground Resistance, and Motown.
