By Specific Gravity
This is my first Carhartt jacket. I've used it for about a month now and I am very happy with it. It is very well made and plenty warm for those cold nights & mornings. The jacket is fairly heavy... its not light weight at all. The fabric is very stiff on the outside, like canvas. It has loosened up a bit, however it still retains most of its original rigidity. The inside quilting is smooth and very comfortable. I work in SoCal near the ocean and the temperature gets around the low 40s-50s °F. Im sure if it got cooler the jacket would still keep me nice and warm.I paid $170 with free shipping when I purchased mine. I thought it was a little expensive, but having the peace of mind that comes with a nice layer of FR material between you and potential fire, $170 is worth it. This jacket should last for years to come.UPDATE as of 04/23/09: I took the jacket to get professionally dry cleaned per label instructions. When I got the jacket back there were streaks on the outer shell where the dye had bled off. I contacted Carhartt customer service and they responded that this was a known issue with the dark navy color jacket and the heavy cotton fabric. They offered to replace the jacket with the brown, get a replacement in navy with updated labels, or return to store for refund."The new care instructions state that taking the garment to be dry-cleaned and requesting that they turn it inside out should prevent the bleeding of the dye."UPDATE as of 08/02/10: The jacket is still holding up, however the dye hasn't been as sturdy. One washing at home, with the jacket turned inside out, on gentle cycle... some of the dye has worn off. Its no where near the loss of dye on the first jacket I received. It looks like its been worn for many years, or has been out in the sun a bit. Because of this, I'd rate it at 4 STARS. Still keeps me warm, great quality and build... just not so great dye.
