FAQs
What is Dearborn Canvas?
Dearborn Canvas is a durable, 12 oz cotton canvas fabric used by Carhartt WIP, known for its robustness and longevity.
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
The jacket is unlined and designed for transitional weather (spring/fall) or as a layering piece. It does not provide significant insulation on its own for cold winter conditions.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the model's height and the size they are wearing (185 cm / 6'1" wearing size M) as a reference. It is recommended to check specific product measurements if available or consider sizing down if you prefer a closer fit.
Can I wear this in the rain?
The canvas offers some resistance to light wind and moisture, but it is not waterproof. It is suitable for dry or lightly damp conditions.
How should I care for the corduroy collar?
The corduroy collar can be cleaned following the general care instructions for the jacket. Avoid harsh scrubbing, which can damage the corduroy texture.
What is the fit like?
The jacket has a classic workwear fit, which can be somewhat relaxed. The adjustable cuffs and hem allow for some customization of the fit.
Does it come in other colors?
This specific product is listed as Black. Carhartt WIP often offers similar styles in various colorways, which may be available separately.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a zipper lubricant to the teeth and gently work the zipper up and down.
Jacket feels too stiff
The Dearborn Canvas is designed to be robust. Wear the jacket regularly to help it break in naturally. Washing according to care instructions may also help soften the fabric over time.
Color fading after washing
Always wash with like colors in cold water. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, as this can cause fading.
Snaps on cuffs or hem are loose
Ensure the fabric around the snap is not overly stretched or worn. For persistent issues, professional repair might be necessary.
