The Carhartt WIP OG Detroit Jacket in Dark Navy/Black is a heavyweight icon built from 12-ounce organic cotton Dearborn Canvas. Treated with a chalk wash for a sun-faded, lived-in look, this resilient jacket features an oversized silhouette that offers immediate comfort and a rugged exterior that only improves with age. As a core piece of the brand's history, it functions as a resilient daily driver that offers consistent protection and a unique, lived-in appearance right from the first wear.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This jacket is intentionally oversized with a wide chest and a slightly shorter, boxy length
• Most customers find this jacket runs larger than standard modern fits. Here at the store we recommend staying with your usual size for the intended baggier look
• The design provides a square-cut frame that is particularly well-suited for broader body types or those who enjoy a 1990s-inspired fit

Washing & Care Instructions

• Can be washed up to 40°C on a standard cycle. To maintain the Dark Navy tones, we suggest using a cold wash where possible.
• Always hang the jacket to dry naturally to preserve the shape of the organic canvas and prevent excessive shrinkage.
• If required, the jacket can be tumble dried at temperatures up to 60°C, though air drying is preferred for longevity.
• The cotton canvas can be ironed at temperatures up to 200°C to remove heavy creases after laundering

Carhartt WIP OG Detroit Jacket - Our FAQs

1. What makes the "Chalk-Wash" special?
   Unlike a standard dye, the chalk-wash gives the jacket a complex, multi-tonal look that mimics years of natural sun exposure and wear.

2. Is this jacket waterproof?
   While the heavy Dearborn canvas naturally sheds light moisture, it is not a waterproof garment. It is designed primarily for durability and wind resistance.

3. Does it have internal storage?
   Yes, this model includes an inside chest pocket for keeping high-value items like a wallet or phone secure and dry.

   Is the sleeve lining different from the body?
   Yes, the sleeves are lined with 100% nylon to ensure your arms slide in and out easily, even when wearing friction-heavy fabrics like wool or fleece.
