CarharttMen's 104458 Yukon Extremes® Loose Fit Insulated Active Jac

Very warm and wind resistant. Highly durable and comfortable. Minimalistic style is always a plus in my book. The hood is a great size (I have a giant head), but if you want something you can tighten, this isn’t it. I like the inside pocket with a zipper on the left. I put so much in it and hardly notice any bulk.

I am 5' 11" and 200 lbs and went with the large after trying on a medium at a local store. The medium felt like it could work but I wanted a slightly more relaxed fit to accommodate layers. I am glad I went with the large. I have a full range of motion without anything pulling or being taut. Both the inner sleeve elastic and the outer sleeve fit me perfectly, although due to the nature of the sleeves you have to mess with it to see your watch and get it back in place. It is both lighter and thinner than I would have imagined given how warm and wind-resistant it is which is nice.It does have a nylon shell which, while probably very durable and abrasion resistant, is not the quietest material out there. If you're actually out working with it on, the sound falls off your radar fast but if you're standing outside in silence, you may be surprised by how loud it seems as you move your arms around, especially with the hood up.There are plenty of winter jackets around the $200 price point, but if you're looking for durability, light weight, and range of motion, this one is tough to beat from my viewpoint.

Amazing work jacket. Very durable. It cuts the wind and keeps you super warm. I’m not sure there is a better work jacket available anywhere for the value you get from this!!!It is a little tight in my upper back/shoulder area when doing certain tasks at work, but that’s probably my fault. I have a muscular build and I went large instead of XL. Everything else about the jacket is phenomenal. Carhartt is the truth!

Great coat for winter, very warm, comfortable and waterproof.

I love this coat. Warm, not too bulky, stands up to wear and tear, and looks good. I like the elastic on the waist and cuffs. As others have stated, it’s not soft and fluffy, it’s rugged and functional. Would be nice for the outer pockets to be lined but that would just be a bonus. Worth the money.

I am a female 215 lbs and 5’8”, pretty curvy. I purchased this jacket because I thought the reviews seemed very reliable. Many reviews were from people who work outside in the winter and they said this was a warm jacket. I work outside rain, snow, or shine in upstate New York winters for eight hours without a break to come into the warm, so I really need something that is extremely warm. This jacket is nice and thin in a way, not too bulky, but it is extremely warm. The product quality is excellent , much higher quality than I see with women’s clothes. I can tell this is going to be a forever jacket. Even though the shoulders are large on me and the waist is small, because it is fit for a male, I am still happy to wear this jacket. My assumption is that it is not going to be very breathable, given that it blocks out the wind, but I will try it with a light thermal layer underneath and I think that will be enough. When zipped up with the hood up and cinched tight with the drawstrings, it is super protective and warm.

I’ll start with the CONS: the front pockets don’t have a button or zipper, and since they are cut horizontally, they can keep your hands warm in mild weather but you shouldn’t keep valuables in them, as they will fall out. Also, if you are looking for the cozy feeling of a puffy down coat, look elsewhere.That said, here are the PROS:-the jacket is truly warm. This morning it is 14F in New York City and I was walking around without a worry. Underneath, I only have a t-shirt, a collar shirt, a cotton sweater, and one of those very thin Uniqlo vests. I could fit at least two additional layers if I needed to, but this is more than enough for 14F with little wind.-the jacket is roomy and comfortable. The material is sturdy and reasonably water-repellent. If you spend prt of your work day outside, this is a very good choice. You’re not going to look like a model with a custom-fit designer jacket, but if that’s not your goal in life, then this jacket is for you.-the jacket sits right at your belt line. This allows you to walk, bike, ride the subway, drive a car with the jacket on, without any discomfort. You can move naturally. It is truly versatile, much more so than a parka.-the hood has an excellent cut: it stays on, allows for great side visibility while at the same time it is close enough to your face to keep your head warm. Again, it’s 14F outside and I am comfortable without a hat if I pull up the hood.-the inside chest pockets are nice and roomy. The zippered one, in particular, is large and well positioned. The other is not as well positioned but still roomy and usable.On the whole, for the price, this is a high quality product and I’m satisfied to the point where I just spent my subway ride writing this review instead of reading the newspaper.

Good quality and warm
