Carhartt Streetwear Correction

I have been corrected on my prior statement on Carhartt goin' urban, so here's to the metrosexual clothing line:
Turns out, this line has been around since 94, however it's only exclusive to Europe. Only way the American heads can get it is to purchase it online. Oh yeah, i guess Carhartt consumers are more than just loggers, street kids, and anarchists (a generalization that still rings true in the states!). They happen to be construction workers, farmers, etc (so i missed a couple).
So that seems to trump some of my previous post statements, considering it was a only hasty brief at best that still happened to cover the brand from an honest POV.
I did some more research on Carhartt Streetwear, and they're pretty on point overseas, in fact, they seem to be a leading Streetwear Line in multiple European countries, they even have their own Pro-Skate and Pro-BMX team, fashion parties w/hip djs and a huge market for their line . . . fuckin' eh! Interesting how this lineup has managed to stray from the states, but i guess i don't blame them. Seems that Europe has put a entirely unique spin on the "logger/construction/laborer" gear, proving just how different US and Europe really are!
Just another discovery straight from the source itself - that's right, straight from the source! "Big Ups" to the hipster collective of Carhartt Euro Streetwear for correcting me, i appreciate the attention, and so does ROTS. Always good to ruffle some corporate feathers!

Put the stake through his heart,
I ripped his fucking fangs apart
Snake got smoked on the set like Brandon Lee
Blown out the frame, like Pan Am flight 103
He got swung on, his lungs was torn, the
kingpin just castled with his rook and lost a pawn
A regular on the block, and played look-out
For playing predator with a glock, he should have took out
