CARHARTT WIP
Founded in 1994 by Edwin Faeh, Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) develops its own collections based on original Carhartt workwear. The brand combines authentic adaptations of these rugged American archetypes while engaging with the subcultures that have embraced it. This in turn has seen Carhartt WIP place itself in a new context and produce its own classics. Carhartt WIP opened its first store in London in 1997 and today operates over 80 physical locations worldwide. It also has its own skate team and music department, while supporting a number of artists and publishing various publications. Since 2010, Carhartt WIP has worked with a number of like-minded collaborators, including APC, Converse, Fragment Design, Junya Watanabe, Nike, Underground Resistance and Motown.
