DETROITThe Downtown Detroit Partnership (DDP) today announced a multi-year agreement with Carhartt, America’s premium workwear brand, establishing Carhartt as the official apparel sponsor of the Downtown Detroit Parks and the official outfitter of its parks and public spaces team. Over the next three years, DDP team members will be equipped with Carhartt’s iconic, rugged gear, as they work to care for, program and manage 18 of Downtown Detroit’s historic and vibrant parks and public spaces, including the award-winning Campus Martius Park.

This collaboration highlights the strong bond between the two Detroit-born organizations, reinforcing their shared commitment to the city.

“We couldn’t have teamed up with a more authentic brand that embodies our values and it is remarkable that a brand with 135-year history in Detroit has partnered with the No. 1 Public Square in the United States because of our shared passion for our city,” said David Cowan, chief public spaces officer at the Downtown Detroit Partnership.

This partnership between the Downtown Detroit Partnership and Carhartt captures the true spirit of Detroit—resilient, industrious and civic-minded. As part of this collaboration, the Carhartt Cares Front Row will offer a special experience at this year’s Detroit Tree Lighting for beneficiaries of a local nonprofit.

Carhartt Company Gear outfits work crews ranging from 10 to 10,000 workers with uniform options reinforced by Carhartt’s proven durability. From first rate service to compatible sizes and styles for men and women, Carhartt Company Gear has businesses and their work crews covered with 135 years of experience in delivering quality, durable workwear for generations of workers.
