No because I'm not a larping workwear faggot.

Unless you actually work a manual labor job, DO NOT wear that.

Some people enjoy working with their hands though.

Did WIP change how their shit fits? I have a WIP chore coat from like 2010 in L and the sleeves are slightly too long.
I went and tried an admittedly different model of coat from them the other day and the L's sleeves were way fucking longer.
Sleeves on M were better but my shoulders and pot belly are too big for the M to feel good though.

Carhartt gatekeepers flock to the thread to spew their moronic ramblings as usual.

>>14986912
fuck these other guys saying that you can't wear carhartt, i wonder why are they so offended over normal people wearing good quality work clothes

>>14988445

yes let me ride my yamaha fagio into an alley to look like im a laborer

>tfw just got knee pad inserts for those carhartt dungarees

i am ready for the six million jokes about buying them to get on all fours and suck penis but i will be flexing on these kneelets when they are unable to play sportsball with their sons in 12 years

>>14988854
Uh... What do you believe the function of knee pads is?

Do soibois think it's cool to pretend you're a blue collar worker now? I remember when lumberjack larpers were a thing

>>14988877
Lumbersexuals were linked to and followed on from the last period of workwear being trendy.
Don't you know what Carhartt WIP is? It's a fashion brand based on a work wear brand.
Or did you think contractors are actually buying that shit to work in?

Only way it works if you're talking about fashion. But workwear is for work.

>>14988888
>It's a fashion brand based on a work wear brand.
That's even worse than just wearing work wear because it's trendy.

I believe Carhartt is a brand of skateboard clothing

>>14986953
I do though, farming is actually /fa/ like you wouldn't believe.

Wear whatever you want, but I just find it kind of off-putting to see a dude who looks like he's never even looked at a shovel wearing clothing meant for manual labor. I think it's a city thing, but I don't know. Some dude yesterday said he really liked my carhartt jacket and asked how I managed to age it so well. I just kind of shrugged and said "I work in it". Blew his damn mind

>>14987033
carhartt + ieans + dark shoes/boots = kino

La Haine core

Jacket I was just about to cop sold out today. It was there this morning, took a shower and got dressed: it's gone.
I asked in the WIP store when they expect to get more of it.
>August? That's like a summer and we're about to do winter now...
So in Australia all the stores are still filled with t-shirts and shorts and they're about to unpack jackets that will be unwearable until at least May.

>so what I dont play football, who said I cant wear cleats?

>>14992187
>so what i don't work in a mine, who said i can't wear jeans
>so what i'm not excerising right now, who said i can't wear sneakers
>so what i'm not an indigenous north american hunter, who said i can't wear moccasins

>>14986912
oh no no no no no

>>14986953
gatekeepers are even more cringe than the wearers themselves lol

>>14992187
that's such a retarded argument

Where can I get this YUMMY work wear? I want to look just like my dad before he left my family!

these threads always confuse me. Aren't american companies legally required to provide safety equipment for employees and thus unlikely to choose Carhartt over high volume more utilitarian stuff like hi-viz and/or company branded coveralls, boots etc. ?

Do Burgers have to buy their own workwear or is every anon that posts about wearing them at work an off the books mexican roofer one step ahead of La Migra ?

>>14994531
this. manual labourers do not dress like this.
>>14994515
sounds like he made the right call.

>>14994531
no. i work engineering alongside tradies and they have to buy their own boots, coveralls etc. only thing provided is ppe like hard hats, gloves

>>14994531
Safety equipment. Unless you're talking about fire-retardant coveralls or a biohazard suit, clothing isn't going to be covered, only personal protection like a hardhat and gloves.

Do you think American workers will have to wear hi-vis by default soon? In Australia it's basically mandatory anywhere.
At night we also have to wear white hi-vis rather than fluro.

>>14990359
This

Clothes meant for work need to be aged organically. I understand workwear is a style all it's own, but if you don't work with your hands it shows.

>>14987033
Anybody that thinks this looks good is a fucking retard. Dudes wearing a fucking default SoundCloud spic hat with a faggy designer mask to hide his fat mouth and lack of chin, to make it worse he’s wearing a vest like a 75 year old farmer. Dude looks like a lumberjack going through an identity crisis

>>14995893
Also why is he standing like a Naruto character?

I'm a steamfitter from St Catharines Ontario and I can say without fear of hyperbole that if we see some Toronto soi boy LARPing in clean untouched work gear at one of our bars, we will ask them what they do for work. If they answer that they're in IT or some other soi profession, they WILL get beat up, or at the very least severely bullied and chased out of the bar, for appropriating our culture.

It's like wearing military fatigues having never served.

Wtf I was supplied boots, high vis jacket etc at almost every new construction job

>>14994531
im provided vouchers for workwear to use at specific locations that cover all my workwear

>>14994531
Carhartt is not actual workwear, they don't sell anything that is certified. They don't even make safety boots.

>>14996503
they do though

they have CSA certified boots (although they're not great) and they have arc ratings for if you're doing electrical work and their work shirts are NFPA certified

however most places that care about that are just going to issue uniforms that cover these ratings anyway

>>14996023
>It's like wearing military fatigues having never served.

Except military men don't give any fucks they just wonder why anyone would wear military clothing without getting paid to do it.
They only care about rank and medals, not the clothes.
See: pics of operators operating in civilian clothes because that's what they'd rather wear.

>>14996023
>for appropriating our culture.
Imagine having so little culture your shitty work clothes become your culture.

>>14986912
Every fucking mom that walks into my office is wearing a carhart beanie and it makes me want to scream POSER

>>14994531
My company provide clothes for me but I'm still allowed to buy my own stuff if I want to. But where I live actual workers never wear carhartt, only city söys.

I like that guys who spent one summer being a runner on a construction site will not shut the fuck up about soibois wearing carhartt as if they are any better

>>14996023
holy shit Im screencapping this one

>>14995245

i do construction in new york and you have to wear hi-vis, all the companies i've worked for have provided hi-vis vests

>>14996586
What would you prefer they wear?

>>14988888
Worth noting that WIP isn’t even made by Carhartt. The items are made by other companies and then just get Carhartt branding.

>>14996023

Thank you for your service sir
