Carhartt Men's Rain Defender Relaxed Fit Midweight Sherpa-Lined Full-Zip Sweatshirt

I'm 5' 10" and 195-ish pounds with slightly broader-than-average shoulders. My torso is also just a bit on the short side for my height. The Large fit perfectly for me. Specific notes: Quality - seems well-made. All of the seams looked good and tight with threads tied off effectively. The zipper also feels robust compared to other similarly-priced hoodies out there. Seems like it will last for a long time. Comfort - the sherpa interior feels great and provides plenty of warmth. It is only in the torso area and does not extend into the arms, which is a good thing. The slicker material in the arms makes putting it on over shirts much easier. I've worn it while sitting on my truck bed for an hour in windy conditions in the low 40s with just a t-shirt under it and felt comfortable with little wind getting through the material, and it's kept me warm without strong winds down into the low-mid 30s without layering. Fit - as with most Carhartt stuff, it fits a bit bigger. For a hoodie I didn't want something form fitting since the added pocket of air can help with warmth. It's not huge and doesn't feel like it's eating me, but it's not a slim fit by any means. Mobility - I felt like I have plenty of mobility on this thing. My arms never feel restricted as they can with heavier coats. I'm able to articulate at the elbows and the shoulders very easily. Shouldn't get in the way if you're doing work in it. Layering - at my size there is enough room in the hoodie that I could add 1 layer under the hoodie (besides just a t-shirt). I wouldn't try to layer this hoodie under anything though. It's too large for that in my mind. Many hoodies in this price range are just OK. This one feels a cut above the rest, and I think for the price you'll be pleased. Would highly recommend.

Very comfortable! Easy on/off. Medium spot on for my slender frame (5'6"/140 lb). Usable down to freezing depending on activity level. Some may find the traditional materials a bit bulky/heavy; I like it that way. While I didn't purchase for claimed rain shedding ability I recently got caught in a mild rain and stayed dry. Pocket overlaps help keep debris out in addition to rain protection. Well made; feels like it will last awhile.

My husband works construction 10 hours a day outside in Chicago. He Loves these especially in the winter. He now has 5 of them. He couldn't stop talking about the 1st one I bought him...now All of the guys on his crew wear them too. He Loves how roomy they are, he can move in them & he doesn't feel restricted & Loves how warm they are, even the hood is lined with Sherpa. He also says the zipper is very strong & goes way up when he puts the hood on & doesn't scratch his neck & chin, which is important when your working in Chicago "The Windy City". It is also water repellent (Not waterproof) keeps dry in light snow & light rain. SIZING: They are made with a Fuller cut & are a little big when you 1st get them BUT they do shrink just a little after washing them & drying them in the dryer, so if you are 1/2 size, order 1 size up. EXAMPLE: (if a L size shirt is tight on you, order this in XL) especially if you maybe wearing a thermal T Shirt & flannel shirt underneath it. These Hoodies are well made & are the very Best on the market...especially if you work outside or just want a hoodie that stands up to the wind & cold (Chicago) weather....worth every penny!!! BEST POINTS ABOUT THIS CARHARTT HOODY: . Relaxed fit . 10.5-ounce, 50 percent cotton/50 percent polyester blend with rain defender durable water repellent . Sherpa lined . Attached, sherpa-lined extended hood for extra warmth . Full-length antique nickel zipper with storm flap

The fit seems to be spot on. Very warm and comfortable! Obviously durable as well. I love the Sherpa lining. Although it’s not in the arms which would make it even warmer it’s because it would make it harder to work in. With the arms being quilted it always your arms to move more freely. Anyways it’s a great jacket for work or just going out!

This jacket is exactly what you’d expect from Carhartt, super durable and well-made. The material feels thick and high quality, but still comfortable enough for everyday wear. I like the relaxed fit, it layers easily without feeling bulky. The rain defender feature actually works for light rain, which is a huge plus. Great for work or just being outside. Definitely worth it.

I definitely like this jacket, it is overall nice and warm, but in my opinion it misses the mark on two things. I am not a fan of the sateen material used on the inside of the sleeves. It is smooth and cold to the touch and because I don't generally wear long sleeve shirts, when I just grab the jacket to go out my arms feel that cold material and brrrrrr.... Then outside I constantly feel like my arms are cold as I move even thought it is otherwise a very warm jacket. The other miss is the double pocket on the right side. The smaller pocket seems useless and I constantly snag my fingers inside the small pocket when trying to get my cold hand into the larger regular pocket. Otherwise it seems very durable, the body of the jacket is a thick warm material and uses a good quality zipper. I will definitely keep this jacket but in cold weather I'll need to put on a long sleeve shirt before putting it on to go out

Excellent fit on my 6’2” frame. 290lbs. Size2XLT. Nice fabric. I did not wash before wearing because I didn’t read instructions. Ps on them. Tried it outside temp 13degrees. Comfortably warm with t shirt and light jumper. The small inner pocket on right side is as much use as teats on a bull. I’m considering using fabric shears to make me feel better. I don’t know longevity but I’m leaning toward buying another different colour.

Nice medium weight hooded work jacket. Zipper works well and the hood is large enough to comfortably accommodate a hat. Used it as my outer layer in temps down to the twenties and was still comfortable.

Très bien

Fleece lining and good quality Carhartt hoodie RECOMMEND

Tolle Jacke, super Qualität und echt warm. Schade das die dicke Fütterung nicht auch in den Ärmeln ist. Ich bestelle normalerweise 3xl und die ist manchmal noch zu klein aber hier reicht xl völlig aus.

Very nice jacket. Nice material, fit was perfect and cozy warm.

Sweat chaud et deperlant. J'ai testé sous le robinet, il reste parfaitement sec. Doublure intérieure chaude en fourrure synthétique. La qualité Carhartt semble au rendez vous, a voir dans le temps. Par contre comme toujours chez Carhartt les tailles sont larges, le S me va parfaitement alors que sur d'autres marques je met plutôt du M
