Share
If you're looking for Carhartt WIP in Leicester, you've found it. Patina is an independent streetwear store in Leicester City centre and an official Carhartt WIP stockist, carrying men's and women's Carhartt WIP in store and online. Here's everything you need to know, from where we are to what's on the rails right now.
Where is Patina?
Patina is at 11 St Martins, Leicester LE1 5DE, in the heart of the city centre, a short walk from The Highcross, Leicester Cathedral and the Clock Tower. We're open seven days a week:
- Monday to Saturday: 11am to 6pm
- Sunday: 12pm to 4pm
We're a small, independent shop, run by brothers Christian and Christophe Eldridge, who were born and raised in Leicester. We opened in August 2024. It's a relaxed place to shop. The music matters, the conversation is easy, and you don't need to buy anything to come in and have a look. On a Saturday you'll often find friends spinning records.

Is Patina an official Carhartt WIP stockist?
Yes. Patina is an official Carhartt WIP stockist, so everything we sell comes direct from the brand. You're getting the real thing, with the same seasonal drops and core pieces you'd find in Carhartt WIP's own stores.
Carhartt WIP (Work in Progress) is the European streetwear line of the American workwear brand Carhartt. It takes the hard-wearing fabrics and practical details of classic workwear and reworks them into modern, wearable silhouettes. It's been a staple of skate, music and street culture for years, and it's one of the brands we're proudest to carry.
What Carhartt WIP does Patina sell?
We carry a mix of Carhartt WIP core staples (Detroit Jacket, Chase Program) and seasonal pieces, and the range changes as new drops land. Right now that includes:
-
T-shirts (from £32): the everyday S/S Pocket T-Shirt in Black, White and Hamilton Brown, the Chase T-Shirt with its embroidered C logo, and graphic tees like the Hot Rat Tee and Grape Picker Tee.
-
Hoodies and sweats (from £75): the Chase Hoodie, Chase Sweater, Hooded Chase Jacket and the garment-dyed Vista Sweatshirt.
-
Shirts (£85): the garment-dyed L/S Bolton Shirt.
- Accessories: beanies like the Stratus Hat Low.

Is Patina easy to get to from Nottingham, Derby, Coventry and Birmingham?
Yes. Leicester sits right in the middle of the Midlands, so Patina is an easy trip from across the region:
- Nottingham: around 30 minutes by train or car.
- Derby: around 30 minutes by train, or 40 minutes by car.
- Coventry: around 40 minutes by car via the M69.
- Birmingham: around an hour by direct train or car.
Leicester train station is roughly a 15-minute walk from the shop, so it's an easy day out. We're open on Sundays too, so make a weekend of it, grab some food in the city centre and come and say hello.
What other brands does Patina stock?
Carhartt WIP sits alongside a hand-picked mix of brands that work well together without all looking the same. Alongside Carhartt WIP, we stock Patta, By Parra, Obey, Gramicci, Service Works, Deus Ex Machina, Born X Raised, Wasted Paris, Heresy and Metalwood, plus footwear from New Balance and Saucony, skincare from (MALIN+GOETZ), and Medicom Bearbrick collectibles.
