Why Carhartt Workwear Stands Out
When it comes to durability and reliability, few brands match Carhartt. For over a century, Carhartt has built a reputation for making workwear that can handle the toughest conditions — from freezing job sites to demanding industrial environments. Whether you need comfort, protection, or visibility, there’s a Carhartt line designed for your workday.

2. Carhartt FR: Built for Flame Resistance and Safety
For electricians, welders, and oil & gas professionals, Carhartt FR Workwear delivers the protection you need to meet NFPA 2112 and CSA safety standards.

How to Choose the Right Carhartt Gear
When selecting workwear, consider your environment and safety requirements:
Need protection from flame or arc flash? Choose Carhartt FR.
Working around vehicles or in low-light? Go with Hi-Vis.
Just need tough, everyday gear? Regular Carhartt workwear has you covered.
If you’re ever unsure, it’s always best to match your clothing to your job’s safety standards.
