Carhartt teams up with Covercraft to create car seat covers

DEARBORN, Mich. — Workwear brand Carhartt is collaborating with vehicle seat cover protection manufacturer Covercraft to deliver Carhartt duck seat protection for pickups, SUVs, vans and over-the-road work trucks.

"For more than 50 years, Covercraft has produced high-quality, handcrafted seat protection products built to the highest standards and certifications, which makes our partnership a perfect extension of the Carhartt brand," said Rick Fecowicz, director of licensing at Carhartt.

According to Carhartt, the vehicle seat covers are constructed with its “heavy-duty, firm-hand duck fabric,” and have its signature triple-stitched main seams for “extra durability.” The seat covers also have pockets for storage and the brand’s Durable Water-Repellent finish.

Carhartt-Covercraft will be widely available for purchase at participating dealerships or online.
