Constructed from repurposed Carhartt cargo pants, this one-of-one durag merges utility and hair protection through functional design. Featuring real pockets and durable canvas, the piece extends beyond adornment into practicality, while a silver satin lining maintains comfort and hair care. Rooted in sustainability and workwear aesthetics, the design reimagines everyday garments as protective wear, blending function, durability, and style into a singular, wearable object.

By transforming a work garment into a piece of protective wear, The Utili-Duey invites viewers to reconsider the possibilities of clothing beyond its original purpose.

When you think about the clothes you wear every day, what do you value most: function, comfort, durability, or style?
