Carhartt's duck work pants from the 1940s are emblematic of the high-quality craftsmanship that defined American workwear during this era, making them highly sought after by collectors of vintage clothing.

The rarity of dead stock items, especially those in near-museum quality, sets this offering apart, as most surviving pieces exhibit wear and repairs.

Originating from a period when durability and functional design were paramount, the unique specifications like the blanket liner and copper UFO rivets add to its appeal among enthusiasts of vintage Americana.

With a current bid of ¥220,000, this piece reflects the steep demand in the Japanese market for authentic, well-preserved American workwear, which is often better maintained than its domestic counterparts.
