A BATHING APE
Carhartt WIP often collaborates with other streetwear brands. An example would be the line of A Bathing Ape X Carhartt WIP camouflage hoodies and jackets. There have also been collaborations with A.P.C., Comme des Garçons, Vetements, Junya Watanabe Pontus Alv's Polar Skate Co, and Gosha Rubchinskiy and Tolya Titaev's skatebrand PACCBET. The WIP founders strategy was to immerse themselves in sub-cultures that interested them and pursue marketing activities that existed in them. This included graffiti, fanzines, skateboarding, hip hop, and a BMX cycle team. Carhartt WIP have a number of stores in Europe (including Berlin, London, and Barcelona), Asia, Australia and also in the U.S. (New York City and Los Angeles).
