Store Look - Carhartt WIP, Converse, Nike


The second of our in store looks takes it's inspiration from Carhartt WIP's Autumn/Winter collection with the addition of their carry through stables and finished off with sneakers in the form of Converse's iconic Chuck Taylors and Nike's signature Air Max 90 silhouette.

Both looks are based around the Carhartt Michigan Coat which looks set to be the pillar of our selection from Carhartt WIP's Autumn/Winter collection. In the first look we have selected the stellar camo option and let the bold pattern speak for itself by teaming it with paired down black skill pants and the new white demand t-shirt. The Michigan Coat features a linear cut which works well with the more regular fit of the skill pants making for a clean overall silhouette. Subtle box logo branding finishes the look. For the sneakers we have teamed this look up with the Air Max 90 as the fresh white colourway ties in with the t-shirt. This iconic shoe is revamped with a clean white oestrich leather upper and a gum sole styling motif.

In our second look the more classic and paired down navy colour option on the Michigan Coat has allowed us to play around with the colours and textures on the rest of the outfit. We have stuck to a similar overall silhouette as with the first look by again using the regular fit skill pants this time in the classic chino style leather colour option. The look is finished off with the Carhartt's Script t-shirt in heather grey. The subtler colour options on the clothing have allowed us to use the vibrant Imperial Blue version of Converse's classic Chuck Taylor 70s Ox. This model may look strikingly similar to it's original 1970s counterparts but true sneaker aficionados will notice a few key modifications such as added cushioning, a studier toebox and higher rubber foxing along the sole unit. The shoes have not dispensed however with classic detailing such as the iconic license plate on the heel, defined stitching and signature vulcanised sole.
