The Carhartt Double Front Technical Trousers – Carhartt represent maximum strength and flexibility for those who face demanding workdays. Their design, made with stretch ripstop fabric and reinforcements in key areas, ensures a long service life, while movement-oriented features and comfort make them an ideal choice for professionals who need to perform in tough conditions. Available in two classic colours (brown and black) and a wide range of sizes (W30 to W42), they are perfectly suited to different body types and styles.
Extreme Strength and Durability
The stretch ripstop fabric used in these trousers combines 59% cotton, 39% polyester and 2% elastane, ensuring a perfect balance between strength and comfort. Ripstop is known for its ability to resist tearing, making these trousers a durable option for heavy duty work where constant contact with tools, rough materials or abrasive surfaces is frequent. In addition, the main seams are reinforced with triple stitching, providing extra durability in areas most prone to wear and tear, such as knees, hips and thighs. This structure ensures that the trousers will maintain their shape and functionality over time, withstanding multiple washes and long periods of intensive use.
Flexibility with Rugged Flex™ Technology
The Rugged Flex™technology applied to these trousers allows for unrivalled freedom of movement. Unlike other work trousers that often restrict movement, these trousers are designed to flex and stretch with the body. This is especially useful for those working in professions that require bending, climbing or moving in awkward positions. The Full Swing™system further extends the range of motion, allowing for greater agility without compromising durability. The trousers do not feel stiff or restrictive, offering a more comfortable working experience, even in the most extreme positions or physically demanding jobs.
Padded Knee Pads and Key Area Reinforcements
The trousers are equipped with a double layer at the knees, which not only adds protection but also comfort when kneeling repeatedly on hard surfaces. Cordura® reinforced calf and ankle panels further increase strength in areas that suffer the most friction and wear. The knees are articulated and designed to naturally adjust to movement, reducing stress on the seams. This ensures that the trousers do not tear easily in this critical area. Knee pad pockets also allow for additional pads to be inserted to further protect the knees during intense work, and designed-in cleaning openings make the knee pads easy to maintain, preventing dirt build-up.
Pockets and Functional Storage
Pockets are designed for maximum functionality on the job. The front pockets are reinforced with Cordura®, making them more resistant to wear and tear from frequent use of heavy tools or sharp points. In addition, the trousers have an inside pocket on the right front pocket for safe storage of small items such as keys or coins. On the right leg, there is a dedicated pocket for the mobile phone, which facilitates quick access without the need to search for it among tools or work equipment. The rear pockets, also reinforced with Cordura®, are designed to offer full capacity, meaning you can carry a greater number of tools without compromising the comfort or durability of the trousers. Plus, the utility band on the right leg allows you to carry additional accessories such as tape measures or cutting blades.
Versatile Fit and Style
The wide fit and straight leg of these trousers make them comfortable for a variety of body types, offering a loose but not too loose fit. The cut fits slightly below the waist, allowing for comfortable wear with tool belts and ensuring the trousers don’t slip down while you work. In addition, the straight leg design allows the trousers to fit seamlessly over work boots, avoiding the discomfort caused by trousers catching on footwear. Although they are designed primarily for manual labour, their sober and functional style also makes them a versatile choice for outdoor recreational activities or intensive household chores.
Applications Beyond Work
While these trousers were created with workers in mind, their robust and flexible design also makes them ideal for a variety of outdoor activities. Whether gardening, hiking or working on personal construction projects, their resistance to wear and tear and ability to move with you make them an essential in any functional wardrobe. The durability of Cordura® reinforcements and the flexibility of ripstop fabric allow for extended wear without sacrificing comfort or strength, even outside of the work environment.
