Anything worth investing in and having must be put to the test and continue to prove itself over and over. Carhartt overalls  has done this for over 100 years. Carhartt brand has become synonymous with quality.

The original clothing line was created around one simple item, the bib overall, made durable for the railroad worker. Today that one item is the most important garment that Carhartt offers and the interesting thing is that it’s style has remained virtually unchanged.

Carhartt,  the maker of the famous Carhartt lined bib overalls has in the past few years started making stylish and fun shirts for the younger generations. Proven time and time again that it is never too early to begin brand loyalty through  imprinting. Successful companies have done it for decades. Young impressionable minds associate the label with adults they look up to and they like it before they even try it on. Talk about mind games!

Job with a view

The construction of high rise buildings is definitely not for those who have a fear of heights. Day after day these workers are hundreds of feet above the ground and must have nerves of steel to go about their work, trusting the safety belts and harness that they wear.

Carhartt, the manufacturer of bib overalls in many styles and colors, has come out with a new jacket that actually has a lanyard for attachment to safety harness, and is offered in a flame-resistant  style.

Attention to detail

Any quality contractor knows that every detail matters. Most job situations usually have one boss who is expected to know it all, but if he is a smart boss, he will ask for the opinions of all the workers on staff. By doing this they all feel that they are part of the team and every once in awhile an new and very beneficial idea will surface and “the team”  becomes improved.

Detail is Hamilton Carhartts middle name!  Manufacturer or the famous Carhartt bibs which was founded in 1889 and remains strong today. I feel sure Hamilton was a good listener.

Wishing away winter

They say you should never wish away your life..but when the weather is ugly it gets pretty darn easy to wish for summer to return.

I love a breezy and 80 degree summer day, when I can wear my unlined denim bib overalls and a tank top and run around bare foot in the green grass. What could be better.

Hey, all the fun stuff is not reserved for fathers and sons..

This “tom boy” mama likes to do all the fun boy stuff and intends to relive her country childhood all over.

Wearing my denim overallsand going bare footing to the lake to go fishing is definitely on the top ten list. Digging in the stream and catching crawdads is  another fun thing to do.

Loving life, in the country with my son.

The best part of winter is the beautiful snow and celebrating the birth of Jesus. This little fella is very excited with the visit he enjoyed with Mr.& Mrs. Claus… and when he is a little older he will cherish all the sweet memories of his childhood.

Winter also presents many challenges, especially for those who work outdoors. Carhartt insulated bibs are a great help in battling the cold weather.

This little man, wearing a red Carhartt shirt is admiring this country Christmas tree. He is a little young to realize all the fun traditions his family will get to enjoy… as they relive the childhood memories of their own.

In the summer months he will go fishing with his siblings and will be wearing Carhartt bib overalls and maybe no shirt or shoes…if the weather is fit… Oh to be young!

Arctic Blast

As many parts of the US are hit with an arctic blast, workers are getting out their heavy duty gear in an effort to get their jobs done and not suffer unnecessary discomforts of the frigid temperatures.

A good way to battle the sub zero wind chills is to dress in layers and be sure to cover all exposed skin.

Carhartt bib overalls insulated with arctic weight lining is a perfect choice.

Harmony

Can you imagine any harmony coming from this unlikely quartet? probably not but there would have to be some harmony in this bunch for them to roost wing to wing .

The farmer in his denim overalls knows how important harmony on the farm is worth.. without it all is chaos! I guess somethings apply to all living things.
