Carhartt WIP Jackets for Men & Women
Comparing workwear silhouettes, fleece and lightweight outerwear
Discover Carhartt WIP jackets for men and women at STICKABUSH, from Detroit, Active and Santa Fe styles to Michigan Coats, Prentis Liners and windbreakers. The selection covers different fabrics, cuts and linings. Not every workwear silhouette is made from canvas, and jackets sharing a model name are not necessarily built for the same season.
Visit STICKABUSH in Berlin-Kreuzberg to compare available versions and try them over your usual layers. Explore our Carhartt WIP brand page for more about the label.
Fit guide: Consider the cut and your layers together
Use your usual jacket size as a starting point, then read the fit information for the individual item. OG versions often have a deliberately generous cut. However, the way a jacket fits also depends on its shoulders, body length, cuffs and lining. OG, Regular and Loose Fit are therefore not interchangeable sizing measurements.
- Shoulders and upper arms: With the jacket fastened, reach your arms forwards to check freedom of movement
- Body length: Compare where a short jacket ends at your waistband and how a longer coat falls over it
- Sleeves and cuffs: Check that the length and openings feel comfortable when you move
- Additional layers: Try the jacket over the sweatshirt or hoodie you plan to wear underneath
You do not automatically need to size up just because you want to wear a hoodie underneath. Equally, sizing down is not a reliable way to turn a roomy design into a slim-fitting jacket. Compare the model’s proportions with the space you need.
Models and versions: What should you compare?
Detroit and Santa Fe: Short jackets with different details
Detroit and Santa Fe are among the distinctive workwear silhouettes in this selection. Compare the collar, hem, pockets and lining of each item. The Detroit styles here include different washes and versions, so Dearborn Canvas and corduroy collars should not be assumed to feature on every variant.
Active Jacket: Check the hood, fabric and seasonal version
The Active Jacket brings a hood to the workwear look. This collection includes models explicitly labelled Summer or Winter, alongside OG styles and canvas, denim and leather versions. The model name alone does not tell you how warm the jacket will feel. Check the fabric and lining combination of the specific item.
Michigan and other coats: Compare longer silhouettes
Michigan Coats, the OG Chore Coat and the Modular Coat add longer silhouettes to the selection. Compare pocket layouts, closures and body length. When layering, notice how your top sits beneath the hem and how much room the shoulders provide.
Prentis Liners, windbreakers and zip-up hoodies
Prentis Liners offer a different fabric texture from traditional canvas jackets. Windbreakers and Nimbus versions add further outerwear options. You will also find zip-up hoodies such as Chase, Nelson and Duster Script. Decide whether you need an outer jacket or an additional sweatshirt layer, rather than treating every style as equivalent weather protection.
Understanding fabrics, linings and care
Canvas, denim, leather, fleece and synthetic outer fabrics differ in feel, surface texture and care requirements. Washes and dye treatments also influence their appearance. Always check the composition and lining on the product page for your chosen version.
A heavy outer fabric does not establish a specific level of warmth. Similarly, a water-repellent finish does not mean a jacket is waterproof. For rain or wind protection, rely on the explicitly described features of the individual model.
Follow the sewn-in care label when cleaning your jacket. One washing temperature is not suitable for the entire selection, particularly across canvas, leather and insulated styles.
Styling: Combine workwear with relaxed basics
A short Detroit or Santa Fe silhouette pairs well with straight-leg or relaxed trousers. Explore suitable options in our Carhartt WIP trousers selection. A longer coat changes the proportions and works over an understated top.
Browse our Carhartt WIP hoodies and sweatshirts for additional layers. With a hooded jacket, check whether a second hood sits comfortably underneath. A Carhartt WIP beanie completes the look on cooler days.

Frequently asked questions about Carhartt WIP jackets
How do Carhartt WIP jackets fit?
Fit depends on the model and version. OG styles can have a deliberately generous cut, while other jackets have different proportions. Compare the individual fit notes and check the shoulders, sleeve length and body length over your usual layers.
Should I size up to wear a hoodie underneath?
Not automatically. A roomy cut may already provide enough space. Try the combination with the jacket fastened and check that your back, shoulders and upper arms can move comfortably.
What is the difference between the Detroit and Active Jacket?
The Active Jacket has a hood, while the Detroit uses other collar designs. Fabrics, linings and further details also vary between versions. Compare the individual items rather than relying on the model names alone.
Which Carhartt WIP jacket should I choose for winter?
Start with items explicitly described as winter versions and compare their lining, fabric, length and closures. Your sensitivity to the cold, additional layers and activity level also influence the choice. A model name alone is not a temperature rating.
Are all Carhartt WIP jackets made from canvas?
No. Alongside canvas, this selection includes denim, leather and fleece versions, as well as jackets with synthetic outer fabrics. Materials can also vary within the same model family.
Are Carhartt WIP jackets waterproof?
There is no single answer for the entire collection. Check the explicitly stated features of the individual item. Canvas or a water-repellent finish alone does not establish waterproofness.
