• Carhartt has taken steps towards increasing transparency in its supply chain and business practices. The company provides some information about its suppliers and factories, but the level of detail and accessibility of this information could be improved.

• Carhartt is committed to ethical labour practices and has a code of conduct that mandates fair wages and safe working conditions for all employees in its supply chain. Unlike many large brands, there have been reports and concerns about labour practices in some of its overseas factories.

• Carhartt has initiated several environmental programs aimed at reducing its ecological footprint. However, the brand’s overall environmental impact is still significant, partly due to the nature of its durable and heavy-duty products.

• Carhartt has made strides in incorporating sustainable materials into its products. However, most of Carhartt’s materials are still conventional, raising concerns about their products’ overall sustainability.

Consumers who value durability and ruggedness in their clothing will appreciate Carhartt’s products, but those seeking highly sustainable and ethical options may find the brand’s current practices lacking.
