In the United States, Carhartt is known for hard-wearing, rugged, durable work clothes, such as jackets, coats, overalls, coveralls, vests, shirts, jeans and dungarees, whereas in Europe Carhartt is marketed as a more fashionable streetwear brand comparable to Stussy or Dickies.

Carhartt was originally founded to make work clothing for railroad workers. Their initial growth throughout the 1890's was focused on railroad workers' need for durable and long lasting work overalls. Over time, Carhartt clothing items evolved trademark features intended to further extend durability, including the use of heavy duty threads, reinforcing rivets at vital stress points, and a variety of durable, high technology materials resistant to flames, abrasion and water. Today Carhartt is still mainly associated with cold-weather workwear in the U.S., and is commonly found on construction and other job sites.
