2024 marks the era of workwear, as fashion brands passionately, showcasing a newfound fascination with the working person's wardrobe.
Originally tailored for blue-collar workers, workwear has evolved into a significant part of men's fashion, characterized by its rich history, utilitarian features, and durability.
Brands known for making workwear like Dickies and Carhartt often utilize this “heritage”; creating a connection with consumers who appreciate the historical significance of these styles.
One of the defining features of workwear is in its utilitarian nature. Designed with the practical needs of the wearer in mind, workwear prioritizes functionality and utility. Dickies continues to showcase prime examples of utilitarian designs with their multiple pockets, reinforced knees, tool loops on their Flex Duck Carpenter Pants which has become staple of this model alongside with Carhartt double knees dungaree.
This style of workwear pants is now also adapted by Luxury brands Givenchy and is shown in its Carpenter Pants that still emphasizes on utilitarian elements not only for function but also contributes to the enduring popularity of workwear in men's fashion.
Engineered to withstand heavy-duty tasks, workwear is resistant to wear and tear, abrasion, and exposure to harsh conditions. Detroit Coat from Carhartt WIP is constructed in classic, hard-wearing water-repellent Dearborn Canvas. This durability not only ensures the longevity of the garments but also reflects the commitment to quality associated with reputable workwear brands.
Similar to Detroit Coat from Carhartt WIP, Dickies is also known to have uncomplicated and straightforward design that is represented in the Eisenhower Jacket. Featuring a sturdy cotton/poly twill construction, this go-to layering piece for work or the weekend will become an anchor in your workwear collection.
This silhouette of jacket is now the favorite workwear piece replicated by luxury brands. Even a high-end brand like Prada features jackets that we know are inspired by Detroit and Eisenhower with a Denim Zip Up Jacket.
As denim becomes the epitome of workwear apparel. Chore Coat from Dickies embodies the practicality, resilience, and timeless aesthetic of denim; making this item a popular choice when it comes to the workwear trend.
However, many other brands create their own versions of the chore jacket. The style has become a timeless and versatile piece in the world of fashion, transcending its original workwear purpose.
The last on our trend list will definitely never go out of style. Workwear essentials are usually associated with high-visibility colors for safety reasons. Orange is a common color that is necessary for hazardous construction jobs due to its noticeable shade. This mandatory color is now a part of everlasting workwear trend that is channeled by Pleasures through their Everyday Beanie.
The luxury iteration of the orange beanie can be discovered in the Wool Beanie by Moncler Genius. Elevated with its wool material, this beanie adds a touch of luxury to the classic orange beanie.
