"I love my friends" Capsule collection by Pepe Tirelli
Carhartt WIP skate team rider, painter and tattoo artist Pepe Tirelli has created a series of graphics for the brand’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection.
The graphics are executed in Tirelli’s signature hand-drawn style, and have been applied to t-shirts, sweatshirts, and a mug.
Accompanying the items’ release is a series of images shot by Natas3000, plus a short skate video filmed by Romain Batard. To celebrate the launch, Tirelli will be live painting the windows of several Carhartt WIP stores in selected cities, alongside a screening of the skate video.
Pepe Tirelli for Carhartt WIP items will be available from September 12 at select global retailers, as well as Carhartt WIP stores and carhartt-wip.com.

Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) is a clothing brand that adapts and modifies the core products of the pioneering American workwear brand Carhartt to create its own collections. Established in 1994 by Edwin Faeh, the brand’s audience is just as likely to associate its iconic yellow C motif with late 90s hip hop videos or skate clips, as they are with factories or manual labor. This distinction is key in defining what Carhartt WIP does. Carhartt WIP engages with different cultural spheres: from Detroit and Berlin’s symbiotic techno scenes, to skateboarding and its communities that span Paris, New York, and Seoul, to the contemporary art world. The brand channels these influences, representing the culture which has formed around it. This can be seen and felt in its collections, its imagery, and its choice of partners and collaborators. Today, Carhartt WIP operates over 100 brick and mortar retail stores across Europe, Asia, and the US, as well as working with select wholesale clients.
