These Carhartt work pants are worn by workers and support personnel with the United States Antarctic Program (USAP) in Antarctica. Built for durability, comfort, and everyday performance, they’re designed to handle demanding jobsites, outdoor work, and other rugged environments, making them an excellent choice for cold-weather labor.
Constructed from heavyweight 12-ounce, 100% cotton ringspun washed duck canvas, these pants feature reinforced rear pockets designed to withstand heavy use while carrying tools and equipment. Additionally, multiple utility pockets and a left-leg hammer loop provide convenient storage for essential gear.
