Carhartt Half Zip Alvin Sweatshirt

With its rugby inspired aesthetic and its subtle odes to archived sportswear profiles, this alvin-stripe, space and hydro Half Zip Alvin Sweatshirt from Carhartt arrives as a brand new silhouette introduced into the brand’s latest SP21 collection. Tailored to a loose fitting from a heavyweight 13oz blend of 57% cotton and 43% polyester sweat, this well insulated long sleeve jersey features block tone elasticated cuffs, an elasticated hemline and a traditional pointed-collar neckline complete with a practical and well-ventilated quarter-zip fastening. Unbrushed and yarn-dyed, this twin-tone striped sweatshirt is signed off with the brand’s iconic embroidered ‘C’ wave motif across the left chest in limoncello for a sleek and streamlined finish.

Joining the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) in 2017 and introducing all-organic cotton into its collections in 2019, Carhartt is a pioneering workwear brand that continues to move with the tide even after 130 years in the game. Launched in 1889 with its younger WIP euro-centric sibling entering the scene in the early ‘90s, Carhartt is a workwear and lifestyle brand famed for their rugged construction techniques, their classic cut-and-sew profiles and their endless ode to timeless utilitarianism.
