American workwear company Carhartt has unveiled a new graphic T-shirt range that, according to the company, “reflects the brand’s heritage while delivering comfort, durability, and performance.”
Two of the men’s designs take inspiration directly from Carhartt’s origins in the late 1800s, back when the company began making rugged workwear for railroad workers. The Hamilton Graphic T-Shirt celebrates founder Hamilton Carhartt with archive-inspired graphics on the chest and sleeve.
Alongside it, the Streetcar Graphic T-Shirt honours the brand’s roots, featuring streetcar artwork across the chest pocket and sleeve. Both are made from soft cotton-blend jersey.
The Carhartt Force Series Logo Graphic T-Shirt combines sweat-wicking FastDry technology with mesh ventilation panels, intending to keep workers cool and comfortable. Raglan sleeves aim to allow greater freedom of movement and the drop tail hem is for providing extra coverage on site.
Meanwhile, the Relaxed Fit Logo Graphic T-Shirt has been designed for versatility. Made from cotton/poly vortex jersey, this tee is intended to be soft and lightweight with a classic Carhartt logo print.
Carhartt has also expanded its women’s range in response to feedback from tradeswomen.
The TENCEL Script Graphic T-Shirt has been built from breathable TENCEL fibres blended with cotton, and the loose fit “sits comfortably at the hip,” with both layering and wearing on its own in warmer conditions a consideration.
For those who prefer a heavier option, the Love of Labour Graphic T-Shirt is made from heavyweight cotton with a large Carhartt graphic print on the back.
