FAQs

What does 'OG fit' mean?

'OG fit' refers to an Original or authentic fit, often implying a looser, more traditional cut compared to modern, slim-fit styles. It's designed for comfort and ease of movement, especially for layering.

Is the jacket lined?

No, the Carhartt WIP Men's OG Detroit Jacket in this description is unlined. It is designed as a durable outer shell or a layering piece.

What is Dearborn Canvas?

Dearborn Canvas is Carhartt WIP's signature, robust cotton canvas fabric, known for its durability and long-lasting quality. The 'Camano' Denim used here is a specific type of this canvas.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

While durable, the unlined nature means it's best suited for mild to cool weather. For very cold conditions, it functions best as a layering piece over warmer garments.

How do I care for the 'Destroy Wash' finish?

Follow the general care instructions (machine wash cold, gentle cycle, mild detergent). Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat, which could alter the intended washed appearance.

What are the chest pocket dimensions?

Specific dimensions for pockets are not provided, but the zipped chest pocket is designed to securely hold items like a wallet or phone. The interior chest pocket offers additional concealed storage.

What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?

Given the 'loose OG fit,' if you are between sizes and prefer a less voluminous fit, consider sizing down. If you intend to layer heavily, your usual size or sizing up might be appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff

This is normal for new, heavy-duty canvas. The jacket will soften considerably with wear and washing according to care instructions.

Sizing seems large

The jacket is designed with a 'loose OG fit' for layering. Consider the intended use and whether you plan to wear thick layers underneath. If still concerned, consult the size chart or consider a size down if a more snug fit is desired.

Color appears slightly different than expected

The 'Destroy Wash' is applied to create a unique, vintage look. Minor variations in color and distressing are characteristic of this finishing process and each jacket may have slight differences.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small application of graphite (from a pencil) or wax on the teeth can help.
