Carhartt WIP Brader Blazer

The Carhartt Brader Blazer in Black Rinsed is a rugged interpretation of a classic tailoring staple, successfully merging workwear durability with a smarter silhouette. This garment solves the problem of finding a jacket that is formal enough for a meeting or dinner but tough enough for daily wear in unpredictable environments. Utilising a heavy duty cotton canvas that has been rinsed for a softer feel without sacrificing strength, it provides a functional layer that transitions effortlessly between professional and casual settings.

Key Features

• Constructed from a robust, midweight cotton canvas that offers exceptional resistance to wear and tear.
• Features a classic notched lapel and a three button front closure for a traditional blazer aesthetic.
• Designed with multiple utilitarian patch pockets, providing ample storage for tools, phones, or wallets.
• Undergoes a rinsing process to ensure a comfortable fit from the first wear and to reduce initial stiffness.
• Unlined construction allows for better breathability and easier layering over knitwear or shirts.

At Urban Industry we recommend

• Professional environments that require a smart appearance but involve physical activity or travel.
• Evening wear for those who prefer a utilitarian, workwear-inspired edge over traditional wool tailoring.
• Pairing with Carhartt WIP trousers in a matching finish for a contemporary, uniform look.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• This blazer is cut with a regular, straight fit through the body, allowing room for a jumper or hoodie underneath.
• Here at the store we recommend choosing your standard size for the intended structured look.
• The "Black Rinsed" finish provides a deep, matte tone that avoids the shiny appearance of synthetic formal jackets.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle to maintain the shape of the lapels and shoulders.
• Wash inside out with similar dark colours to preserve the deep Black Rinsed tone.
• Avoid tumble drying, as the high heat can cause the canvas to shrink or develop unwanted creases, air dry on a sturdy hanger instead.
• If necessary, use a warm iron or garment steamer to refresh the fabric and sharpen the collar.

Carhartt Brader Blazer - Our FAQs

1. Does this blazer have internal pockets?
   This model typically focuses on the external patch pockets for a heritage workwear look, providing easy access to your essentials while on the move.
2. Is the fabric stiff like a traditional work jacket?
   Because it is "Rinsed," much of the initial rigidity found in raw canvas has been removed, making it significantly more comfortable and flexible than a standard chore coat.
3. Can I wear this as a winter coat?
   While it is made from heavy duty canvas, it is unlined; it performs best as a mid-layer in winter or as a standalone outer layer during spring and autumn.
