The Kompakt Record Bar x Carhartt WIP Capsule Honors Seoul’s Hi-Fi Culture

Summary

  • Carhartt WIP collaborated with Kompakt Record Bar on a nine-piece capsule inspired by Seoul’s hi-fi culture
  • The collection features co-branded coach jackets, hoodies, T-shirts, and various bags
  • The drop, including a short documentary, is scheduled for September 19

Carhartt WIP is teaming up with Seoul’s Kompakt Record Bar for a collaborative collection.

So, I just heard about this cool new capsule collection dropping on September 19th, and it’s all about the audio and hi-fi scene in Seoul. There are nine pieces total, plus a short doc. The main piece I’m hyped about is a black coach jacket – it’s got both the Kompakt and Carhartt WIP logos embroidered around the left pocket. There’s this phrase, ‘Work In Progress Every Damn Day’ on the chest, and the logos cover the whole back. They even went the extra mile with gold-plated buttons and a zip closure – it looks really high-quality.

The black six-panel cap features the collection’s key phrase on the front, with the Kompakt and Carhartt wave logo embroidered in blue on the side. The collection also includes gray and black hoodies with branding on the chest and back, as well as logo and illustrated T-shirts. Completing the line are a small black string bag and a brown vinyl LP carrier.

You can find the new Kompakt Record Bar x Carhartt WIP collection starting September 19th. It will be available online at both Kompakt and Carhartt WIP’s websites, in select Carhartt WIP stores, and at the Kompakt Record Bar store.
