Worksout x Carhartt WIP: 20th Anniversary Collection
Marking the 20th anniversary of Worksout, Carhartt WIP has collaborated with the Korean multi-brand retailer on a four-piece capsule collection that reworks iconic Dearborn Canvas styles, such as the Santa Fe Jacket and Double Knee Pant, as well as a sweatshirt and pocket t-shirt.
The collection is presented in a monochrome palette, with graphic embellishments by the visual artist Chris Ro, a regular collaborator and friend of Worksout. Born in Seattle and currently based in Seoul, for this collection Ro interpreted roman numerals to create a unique XX motif, which has been boldly applied to each item, alongside co-branded labeling.
Since 2003, Worksout has been distributing brands such as Carhartt WIP, while also offering a multi-brand space that explores fashion and community in a myriad of forms. To celebrate two decades of its existence, Worksout will call on a host of collaborators to create a series of special edition products and collections.
Worksout x Carhartt WIP will be available from December 14th at all Worksout stores and the Worksout online shop.

jbiais@carhartt-wip.comAbout Carhartt Work In Progress
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.
