Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) has officially unveiled its 'Venture' collection, the brand's latest Fall/Winter installment that borrows looks from climbing and hunting gear.
This highly cohesive, technical-focused capsule includes various garments and utilizes a wide range of fabrics and cuts. As for outerwear, the capsule's offerings range from heavy-duty parkas and tactile vests to fleece zip-ups and cozy sweaters. Meanwhile, the capsule's lighter options include a traditional button-up flannel that has been given a corduroy makeover, while vibrant, retro-inspired t-shirts serve to shake things up. A definite standout, the High Plains Liner presents a shaggy fleece finish printed with a one-of-a-kind, scenic graphic.
