carhartt

[digs86]

i saw the NICEST beanie in a carhartt store in osaka - super cool because it was white! i foolishly didnt buy it because i thought they'd have one in the tokyo store - which was a tiny place in teh basement of la foret.

now im back in london and cant find one anywhere - but i really REALLY want one - anyone ableto help me out or point me in the right direction???

i may trek into c.garden n' ask the shop crew but i doubt if i'll get any results...

if anyone helps, cheers.

[digs86]

you guys are lucky over there. here we don't have any carhartt.

the eclipse is nigh

[rnrswitch]

No Carhart!! Why that is a shame. I wouldn't get anywhere during the winter without my carhart jacket to keep me warm at work!!!!!.

[digs86]

the classic C box logo, but white.

Isn't the carharrt store in Soho now? Or is there two?

[Cue]

^^There was one in Newburgh Street, but I think it was due to close a couple of weeks back.

They have a factory shop in London Fields/Hackney way that is open to the public, try there - it's super cheap too

[digs86]

the one in neals st. closed just as the huge one in earlsham road - next to the adidas originals store - just opened.

oh how i've yearned for a bigger c store

[mrmax]

I think you're the only one who does...

Carhatt is some garbage man gear in the States. I guess it's different over seas.

[digs86]

whats with all the hate on carhartt - they've always made quality durable gear.

i got a 'cool' £35 w)taps tee the other day and it just fell apart within two weeks, whats up with that.

[witts]

Digs, u gona go the factory shop? i was wondering if you go can you check the price of the CAR-LUX hoodys im after one soonish for the winter, either the camo, olive or charcoal colours. jus check the price for me bro?

[digs86]

[witts]

The Carhart work clothes is very durable. The painter pants have lasted forever and the jacket i have has lasted for two winters. I wouldn't know about the shirts or beanies. i have a khaki colored hat that has also lasted two winters. I am a construction worker and i would swear by the carhart pants and jackets.

[witts]

ye thats the thing... in the US builders and tradesmen wear carhartt. But in the UK and some of Europe its considerd and urban almost skaterish brand and we get a completely different range of stock compared to the US

[digs86]

yeah, sorry guys but the good ol' C even has their own brand skateboards and bmx's over here...

[digs86]

CAR LUX

69.00 in selfridges...allow that.

55.00 in main store [earlham road, c.garden]

45.00 in clearance store [reduced price], only had navy + a light bluey colour tho, no camo or olive man.

picked up some cripsy raw black denims tho, so im happy. NO BLODDY WHITE HATS THO

so i'm not.

what we get here (england) is carhartt europe, which is the fashion more streetwear directed arm of carhartt that caters for skateboarders, bmx, djs etc. Some of the stuff though like that thick zip hood they do is in both ranges, you can pay like 60 quid for one of those on the high street but get it for 32 quid exc vat at an irish site called bond safety, jus thought id share that as i know someone was lookin for one a little while back

[digs86]

damn, bron82... those are some nice prices, cheers for the tip.

[witts]

no carlux tho

[bron82]

go under carhartt shirts when u hit the site, they have the carlux lined zip hood there, dunno why it aint under jackets though
