About this piece
Cargo Work Pants in Dark Navy
Genuine vintage Carhartt cargo work pants in dark navy. Condition: like new. Heavyweight original fabric with natural fade and honest wear. One of one — once it sells it is not restocked. Message us for flat measurements and additional photos of this piece before you order.
The dark navy colourway
Navy is scarcer in vintage than brown or black and reads more considered than either. It fades toward a dusty slate rather than going patchy.
Era and identification
Carhartt's cargo work pants added thigh pockets to the standard work pant. Less collected than double knees, which keeps them affordable for the same construction quality.
Condition — like new
Graded like new: clean throughout, structurally sound, no notable flaws. What patina there is came from light wear and washing rather than work. If you want vintage fabric weight without the marks, this is the grade to buy. Priced at $76 against an original retail of $99 — 23% below new, for fabric weight and construction current production no longer matches.
How it fits and how to wear it
Vintage duck shrinks with washing, so the measured waist often runs under the tagged size. The rise sits higher than modern equivalents and the leg is cut straight and roomy. Wears year-round. The straight leg and higher rise sit well over boots or trainers, and the fabric weight means they hold shape through a full day rather than going soft by lunchtime. Message us with reference PT06 for pit-to-pit, length and waist or inseam measured flat, plus extra photos.
Care
Wash cold, inside out, hang dry. Avoid fabric softener — it breaks down the canvas weave. If a knee or seam starts to go, repair early; bar-tacked repairs hold indefinitely.
