Product Information
Full details
The Carhartt WIP Detroit Jacket is a versatile, durable workwear-inspired staple designed for adult men who prioritize rugged functionality and timeless style. Crafted from signature Dearborn Canvas, this unlined jacket serves as an excellent layering piece for transitional weather, though it is best suited for mild to cool temperatures rather than extreme cold due to its lack of insulation.

FAQs
Is the Detroit Jacket waterproof?
While the Dearborn Canvas is durable and heavy, it is not waterproof. It is water-resistant to a degree but will soak through in heavy rain.
Does this jacket have insulation?
No, this specific version of the Detroit Jacket is unlined.
How should I size this jacket?
Carhartt WIP generally runs true to size, but if you intend to wear thick layers underneath, you might consider your standard size or checking the specific measurements for your chest width.
Can I iron this jacket?
It is not recommended to iron the canvas as it may affect the fabric finish. If wrinkles are an issue, steaming is a safer alternative.
Why is the canvas so stiff?
The stiffness is a hallmark of Dearborn Canvas, which is designed for longevity. It will become softer and more comfortable the more you wear it.
Troubleshooting
The jacket feels too stiff or uncomfortable.
Dearborn Canvas is designed to break in; wear the jacket regularly and wash it cold once or twice to help soften the fibers.
Zipper feels tight or difficult to pull.
Apply a small amount of graphite or candle wax to the zipper teeth to help the slider move more smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Detroit Jacket maintains its structure and durability, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a gentle cycle to preserve the fabric color and structural integrity. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air-dry the jacket by hanging it on a sturdy hanger. Avoid machine drying, as it can cause the cotton canvas to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Because the canvas is stiff, avoid folding it tightly for long periods to prevent permanent creasing.
- Maintenance: To refresh the corduroy collar, use a soft-bristled brush to remove any lint or dust buildup.
