About Carhartt WIP Mens Bags

The Irwin

The Irwin is the range that most people come to Carhartt WIP for. It runs as a tote with twin handles, as a crossbody shoulder bag on a wide webbing strap, and in a camo duck version with a heavier canvas body. All three share the same construction — cordura or duck outer, zip closure, the square logo tab on the front panel and no other branding. The tote takes a laptop and a day's things; the shoulder bags are sized for a phone, wallet, keys and not much more.

Small carry, worn on the body

Most of the range sits at the smaller end. The Jake shoulder pouch is the compact vertical crossbody. The Haste shoulder bag is slightly deeper with an external pocket. The Vernon organiser has internal dividers for cards and cables. The Dawn belt bag is the waist bag, worn at the hip or across the chest depending on strap length. The canvas pouch set is a nested pair for splitting kit inside a larger bag. Straps on all of them adjust long enough to wear crossbody.

Backpacks and travel

The Otley backpack is the largest thing here — a roll-top-influenced shape in cypress with a padded back panel, cut for commuting rather than hiking. The Sylvan travel bag holds a night or two, and the Sylvan strap bag is its smaller companion. The Tour packable travel bag folds down into itself when empty, which makes it the one to take as a second bag rather than a first.

Carhartt WIP Bags FAQs

For a phone, wallet and keys, the Jake shoulder pouch or the Vernon organiser. For a bit more, the Dawn belt bag or Haste shoulder bag worn crossbody. For a laptop and a day's things, the Irwin tote or the Otley backpack.
The tote has twin top handles and opens wide, sized for a laptop and a day's carry. The shoulder bag is a smaller crossbody on a wide webbing strap, for essentials rather than everything. Both use the same body fabric and hardware.
Water-resistant rather than waterproof. The canvas and cordura shed light rain and the coated linings help, but zips and seams are not sealed, so a soaking will get through eventually.
Yes. The Dawn belt bag has a long adjustable strap, so it works at the waist or across the chest. Most people wear it crossbody.
Empty it, brush off loose dirt when dry, then spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Let it air dry away from direct heat. Machine washing can distort the shape and damage the hardware.
Yes. We stock Carhartt WIP at both Yards Store shops — 13 Old Bank Street in Manchester and 86 Pinstone Street in Sheffield. Stock differs between the two, so call ahead for a particular bag or colour.
