Carhartt WIP is pleased to announce the opening of its latest store in Munich, located on Reichenbachstraße in the historic Glockenbachviertel area. The opening marks the brand’s second location in the city.
The 120 sqm store is designed by the studio of Milanese architect Andrea Caputto and Salomée Faeh, and features a striking wooden facade that pays tribute to traditional Bavarian architecture. This aesthetic is echoed throughout the store’s interior with solid wood shelves and flooring, while marble display tables and steel fixtures offer industrial detailing, reflecting the brand’s utilitarian roots.
To celebrate its opening, Carhartt WIP has collaborated with UK-born, German-based artist Jay Daniel Wright to create a series of exclusive items, including a hooded sweatshirt, t-shirt, and tote bag, as well as a series of wooden charms. Each charm has been handmade, finished, and individually numbered by the artist.
For each design, Wright, who has a background in carpentry, took inspiration from the city’s iconic Glockenspiel at Marienplatz, from its golden cuckoo figure to the bells that chime across the city. The artist has also constructed two sculptures inspired by its folkloric tableaux, to be permanently displayed in the store.
Carhartt WIP Store Munich Reichenbachstraße opened its doors on Wednesday 28th May, 2025.
