I recently was updating my closet and wanted to find some transitional pieces. The weather has been crazy some days are warm then are cooler. I don’t know how to dress. I then came across Carhatts Force Ferndale Quarter-Zip. It comes in a variety of colors so there is a color for everyone.
While Carhartt famously outfitted the women working in factories during World Word II, their first full women’s line launched a little over a decade ago. As is the case with any product that serves a new audience, Carhartt spent those first few years learning about what worked, what didn’t, and why.
Since 1889, Carhartt has provided clothing and outerwear for real, hardworking people. From its roots as a workwear brand, Carhartt has continued to push the envelope in innovation in addition to making forays into the fashion and casual wear world in more recent years.
Carhartt’s current line is a diverse collection of clothing that is built for the working woman. That’s because Carhartt quickly learned that women want clothes that look and work just like Carhartt men’s gear but are designed to fit and move with a female’s body.
The Force Extremes™ Quarter-Zip Long-Sleeve Shirt clings to your body with a lightweight softness ideal as a base layer or recovery shirt, while it’s fast-drying capabilities, rugged flex design, and odor-fighting technology work hard to keep you feeling dry and fresh as you speed down the mountain for the final run of the day.
In a world with an abundance of performance clothing for athletes and athleisure enthusiasts alike, performance workwear that can hold up under the pressure of hard-working jobs and schedules like yours is hard to find. I always believed that the Carhartt brand just made work clothes, until I saw this line.
