DEARBORN, Mich., Sept. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The iconic Guinness and Carhartt brands are teaming up once again to release a legendary, limited-edition fall collection. The Guinness x Carhartt Heritage Collection features rare, archival Guinness logo designs that date back to the 19th and early 20th centuries, printed on premium Carhartt workwear items.

Items available for purchase include Carhartt men's and women's long- and short-sleeve shirts, hoodies, beanies, aprons and a beer sling.

The history of the Heritage Collection logo designs traces back to the brewery's first 200 years (1759-1959), before Guinness started bottling its beers on-site at the St. James's Gate Brewery in Dublin. Instead of purchasing Guinness in bottles or cans, local pub owners in Ireland and Great Britain would purchase Guinness in wooden casks and bottle it on their own premises. The Guinness Brewery would issue personalized labels for those pub owners to affix to their own bottles.
In overseas markets, Guinness worked with third-party bottling companies to bottle and distribute Guinness Stout around the world. The export bottlers would add their own symbol to the Guinness label to distinguish their bottles and territories. The symbols, many of which were animals, also served as simple identifiers for those who couldn't read English or pronounce the curious "Guinness" name.
The Guinness Archives at the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin contains thousands of examples of these personalized Guinness bottling labels. The Carhartt x Guinness Heritage Collection contains five designs from the Archives: the Guinness Porter label from Ireland; and the Rooster, Pig, Wolf and O'Brien's Dagger brand labels from overseas bottlers.
