Carhartt Men's MidWeight Hooded Zip Front Sweatshirt

Comment

I got the xxl-tall, a perfect size for a big ol hooded full zip jacket for my 63 260lb self. I had a giant jacket like this that had seen too many moons and needed a replacement. This thing is perfect for car camping with lots of extra room for layering, long enough sleeves to double as half-gloves on extra chilly nights, and long enough in back to keep my upperbutt from freezing when I sit down or get up to stretch. I also used it for snowboarding on a warm clear day and it was perfect for that.

Carhartt has always been choice. Im still wearing a coat that I bought nearly 14 years ago. This upscale hoodie is truly fine. My mother was a seamstress, and I always look at the stitches. Its medium weight, given to the layer concept of winter wear. Think of it as an outer shell, if you will. I ordered it way oversized for that reason. Think of Carhartt as an investment. True quality is always more expensive, but generally lasts longer. I dont care about the logo. I want the long lasting performance of durable, well constructed clothing.

I just recieved my new jacket today and I have to say, I have never had a Carhartt product I didnt like. I see no reason to change that frame of mind either, with this new edition to my wardrobe. Im 6"2, I have a long waist and Im built like a tank at 320 pounds. That in mind, this coat is exactly what I was looking for. I wear 2x/3x and depending on the manufacturer (and the washing machine rng) it could be a snug or relaxed fit. Normally I prefer relaxed because I wear a full sized shoulder holster and a snug jacket means Im printing quite heavily, which is a no beuno in the CCP world. I probably could have even gone with a 2xTall and have been just fine with my requirements, but I havent thrown it in the washing machine yet, because Im still wearing it (its so comfy on the inside!). The only thing I have to say about it, and Im not sure if its a negative, is that it has the beefiest zipper Ive seen on a coat in a while. I would expect this on my winter hunting coats for sure, but it seems to be a tad overkill for as light as this jacket is, which Im fine with. Zippers seem to be the first thing to fail on a jacket or coat so overkill is good. 5/5 Edit Update: Washing machine shrinks it a little bit, but it was nothing I didnt expect. Zipper is still alive, no holes, it still comfy, and its still 5/5.

i do love these carhartt sweatshirts. moved to the desert and now this is my new winter jacket. worked this whole winter and held up. I have had many thermal lined carhartt sweatshirts and they worked well in chicago with the wind chills. My only complaint is i would have prefered a medium tall for my 63" skinny body. I think it would have worked better than the large tall that i did get.

I knew this product would be large, and I was looking for large, but it was a tad bit *too* large for me. I still liked it. Nice material, soft, sturdy enough zipper though a bit cheap and not the smoothest zip. I was looking for a new light weight jacket for just throwing on, this does fit that need. I did return it, but based on size. And kinda the zipper. If it had fit I would not have returned it based on the zipper, but I am going to look at a different brand instead of re-ordering this one, because of the zipper, so make of that what you will.
