Carhartt Work In Progress Off-White OG Michigan Jacket

Product Insights & Style Tips

Carhartt Work In Progress gives its Off-White OG Michigan Jacket a purposeful, off-duty edge—one that’s equally at home in Brooklyn art studios and Berlin coffee queues. The organic cotton canvas brings a weighty, tactile feel, softened by a corduroy spread collar that vibes retro utility with a subtle, tonal twist. Logo-engraved antiqued silver hardware and the signature chest patch serve up nostalgia with a knowing wink. There’s an intentional ease to the dropped shoulders, making the jacket move with you rather than against.

This unlined piece is built to live in—roomy enough for a hoodie or lightweight knit, but structured so it keeps its shape when worn solo. The boxy silhouette skims rather than swallows, with patch pockets and a buttoned flap chest pocket at the ready for stashing keys or a metro card. Adjustable cuffs let you tweak the vibe—open and slouchy or buttoned neat. The OG Michigan transitions across seasons and settings, slotting just as easily into a layered city look as it does over a tee and jeans for a weekend escape.

Carhartt Work In Progress has made a habit of elevating workwear staples for the city crowd, and the off-white “Wax” tone gives the OG Michigan a directional, gallery-floor spin. It’s the sort of jacket that signals you know where streetwear’s been and, more importantly, where it’s going next.
