Product Information
Full details
The Carhartt WIP Whitsome Shirt Jacket is an ideal choice for adults seeking a durable, versatile layer that bridges the gap between a shirt and a light jacket. Crafted from 9.2 oz eight-wale corduroy, it offers a textured, rugged aesthetic with added warmth provided by polyester insulation and a quilted nylon lining. While its loose fit is perfect for layering over hoodies or flannels, individuals who prefer a tailored or slim silhouette may find the relaxed cut to be more voluminous than expected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is an apparel item, setup involves selecting the appropriate size for your preferred layering style. Since the jacket features a loose fit, stick to your standard size if you plan to wear it over sweaters, or size down if you prefer a more structured look.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the cotton corduroy.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to avoid potential shrinkage and to protect the internal insulation.
- Ironing: Avoid direct high heat on the corduroy surface; use a steamer to remove wrinkles and refresh the pile of the fabric.
- Storage: Hang the garment on a sturdy wooden or padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders.
