If your partner is anything like mine, he’s a big man who absolutely hates shopping for new clothes, causing him to settle for clothing that’s not an ideal fit. This jacket can solve that problem!! My guy is 6’6”/280 lbs. I got this jacket for him in size 3XL (big and tall) as a Christmas gift, and he dang near hasn’t taken it off since. The sleeves are long enough, it doesn’t ride up in the back when he bends over, and zips up easily with room to spare. He was the only one not freezing his butt off during our last bonfire in freezing temps. I can’t speak to its durability as he’s only had it since Christmas Day, but I’m already considering buying him another. Very worth the money, if only to see him wearing something he feels so comfortable in.

Warm and tough and very comfortable

I’m thankful I found this product with Amazon wardrobe and was able to try on a few different sizes and styles/colors. I’m 6’2” and 200 lbs with a fit build. Im a size 34 waist and when I’m fitted for dresswear I get a slim fit, 36/37 sleeve shirt and 42 Long sports coats. I typically don’t layer under my jackets (generally just wear a t-shirt) so I wound up going with a Medium Tall after learning how huge Larges seemed to be on me. I haven’t bought a medium in any apparel since middle school, so I was surprised I needed a medium, but I’m so thankful I bought the Tall because the sleeves fit perfectly for my long arms. The interior sleeve cuffs are right at the base of my palm, and don’t ride up my arm when moving and lifting objects. The Full Swing features are nice and gives me a great fit doing any movement. I live in Iowa and the wind breaking ability of this jacket on cold/windy days is impressive. I also appreciate the pocket locations and pocket sizes.My only two minor complaints after 3 weeks of use are 1) the ribbed waist cuff is a little tight on my waist but I’m hoping it will stretch out a little bit over time. I usually just wear it unzipped when I’m running errands on 30-40 degree days. 2) The felt lining and construction of the shoulders is comfortable BUT it seems to “snag” my shirt sleeves when putting on the jacket each time, which bunches up my shirt sleeves at the shoulder. I usually have to reach across with my other hand and pull my sleeve back down my upper arm on both sides.Overall, I love the jacket and I wear it often when temps are below 45 in Iowa. I felt obligated to leave a review regarding fit because it seems so difficult to nail down sizing with Carhartt. I’m a slim, tall, large guy and I went with a Tall Medium.

This is a really nice jacket. The fit is right in line with what it should be. There is quality inside and out. It has more than met my expectations.I would definitely be willing to try Carhartt again in the future.

I got this and 2 other Carhartt jackets to compare when looking for a durable work jacket with increased range of motion. I'm a slender athletic 5'4" person and ordered a small, and the jacket was WAY too big and poofed out really awkwardly like a big ghost belly from the front. The odd cut also made it more difficult to zip up. There is a LOT of extra material in the stomach area, and also extra material in the chest area - clearly they tailored this with big bellies in mind, so for people who might have a harder time finding smaller sizes that also accommodate extra girth, or a tough jacket to smuggle multiple puppies inside of - this might be for you.The sleeves are longer than usual for a jacket, so unless you have longer than average arms, the position of the knitted cuffs will put outward pressure on your wrists. Maybe that would soften after some wear, but I found it too uncomfortable. Its a pretty heavy jacket, and the Full Swing design provides good range of motion, but it'd have been better without all the extra front fabric getting in my way.Otherwise, its a durable thick canvas, medium stiff out of the package, a decently warm liner, and one of the few Carhartt jackets that zip up high enough for some neck protection from wind too. Didn't test the water resistance, but from experience, I'd guess it could hold up just fine for a while in a light sprinkle, but would soak through with prolonged periods in the rain or in a downpour.
