Bartlett Jacket

Thirty years ago I bought a simple 2-pocket, front zipper canvas no-sleeve vest by Carhartt. It was made in Vietnam. That vest has no tears, no zipper problem, and the Sherpa fleece is intact. That Carhartt experience plus recommendation from family encouraged me to buy a new jacket by Carhartt. In the Pacific NW, I spend plenty of time outdoors, more doing yard work and auto or home repair than for play. Finding this jacket online took me at least an hour, but it was time well spent! My priorities were quality of materials and quality fabrication, with functionality and style tied for second place. This jacket hit all the Yes buttons. It fits perfectly, feels and looks extremely well made, and it has pockets galore, with great fasteners. The zipper is heavy duty! I expect the jacket to last thirty years. People who rarely praise my apparel say this Carhartt looks really great on me. It should, since it IS great. I agree with others who say the fit is just slightly big. Mine is 3XL, and has enough slack so I could wear a sweater between shirt and jacket on subfreezing days. It has wrist cuffs that are unseen while being worn, but keep the wind from blowing up a sleeve. The only tiny flaw for me is that the hood, though very comfortable, isn't detachable. It warms my head, neck and ears well. My personal preference is the ability to not always have the bulk of a hood behind me. This in no way would discourage me from buying a second jacket, nor does it discourage me from giving a strong buy recommendation. BTW, this jacket was made in Indonesia. Packaging was a generous 2-stars. My purchase was crammed in a thin walled carton, which bulged from the pressure. I opened the box with a very sharp knife. Had I not been very deliberate and cautious, I could have cut the jacket. If I could give the jacket six stars I would!

This is an excellent coat. Highly recommended. Fit: I’m 6’1”, 220lbs, broad across the chest and shoulders and the regular XL fits great. I saw some concerns about the length but I think it’s probably a personal preference thing. The front hits me a couple inches below the waist and the back is a bit longer. Warmth: I wore this jacket with just a t-shirt in the upper 30’s with heavy wind and felt fine. It blocks the wind very well and it was warm without being hot. Quality: This coat is well made and it looks great. The front hand pockets are a little awkward (they are lined thankfully) but nothing close to a dealbreaker. My other Carhartt jacket is 30 years old and going strong. I’ll let you know if this one makes it that long. Overall I’m very happy.

Amazing jacket! This is one of the warmest jackets I've ever owned and my first Carhartt. I love this jacket it is very tough I can see why the brand gets its reputation this thing can stand on its own essentially I put it on my bed and it stood straight up and this one is supposed to be pre-washed! The sherpa lining is so thick it's rated as a two but it's more like a three I was sweating in this thing and 40° overall great by highly recommend this jacket to anyone I am 300 lb 6 ft 1 and I got the 3X tall and it fits perfectly.

Very few negative things to say about this jacket. The material is great, the mobility is great, and the sherpa and quilted lining both feel really nice. The overall weight of the jacket is very welcome. They rate it as warmth level 2, but it is very warm and comfortable. Construction quality is superb, with tight triple stitching everywhere that counts. Only very small complaint is that the side pockets are a bit tight. I have to basically cram my hands in there. With Carhartt you get what you pay for, and are very rarely left disappointed.

Ordered a medium, glad I didn't take the advice for what size I should wear. This coat however, is Amazing, feels good, warm, thick material that will stand the test of time, I'm sure of it!! Excited to get my bibs tomorrow!! Excellent product!!

Great, warm, heavy coat! But doesn't feel excessively bulky. Blocks wind well and light rain. Looks great, I've received several compliments. The fit is great for me (xl, long) even though I have rather long arms. I bought two cheaper coats, which I had to return (one fit weird, the other had a cheap zipper that broke in less than a week) before landing on this one. This coat's quality is worth the extra cost. But, if you have pets, this coat is a fur magnet! I always immediately hang it in the closet when I come home, but it ALWAYS has cat and dog fur clinging to it no matter what. So it's a bit of a pain to keep it looking clean. Also, the inside left breast pocket opens from the side, rather than the top, which is a bit weird at first.

Definitely a biased review bc all I buy is Carhartt and Ariat. I own more Carhartt products than the average person. But this jacket has been great. Really comfortable. Keeps me warm in the single digits. It is kind of bulky. Sleeves are not Sherpa lined, but the hood is. Great rip stop type material. Excellent price for a Carhartt jacket like this. Water and wind resistant. It is a rain defender jacket.

I’m familiar with Carhartt’s quality, but I wasn’t sure about the sizing. I’m 5'8" and 180 pounds, and I was on the fence between a size L and M. I have a Carhartt rainproof hoodie in size L that’s oversized on me—which was the look I wanted for that piece—but for this jacket, I wanted a more fitted feel. I decided to go with the M Tall. Even though I’m not tall, I wanted the jacket to be slightly longer. I’m happy to say it fits perfectly. The quality is excellent—sturdy and well-made—and the lining is very warm. The price was also lower than I expected. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase.

DO NOT hesitate to buy this jacket…..it’s literally worth every single penny….it’s just perfect .

Buena chamarra, el precio es bueno para lo que ofrece de calidad. Queda un poco grande, pero la marca ofrece tallas para personas grandes y altas (big and tall). Hasta ahora la he usado en temperaturas moderadas (15 a 8 grados centígrados) con buenos resultados. Servirá hasta los 5-0 grados. La chamarra es amplia y queda suficiente espacio para usar otras capas por debajo.

Franchement, zéro regret, très belle veste, plutôt lourde et qui tient très chaud. De nombreuses poches , ce qui est toujours pratique. À noter : capuche non amovible. Pour ma part, le double XL me correspond bien. Pour la qualité c'est du Carhartt donc pas de crainte sur sa tenue dans le temps

I'm 5'11 225lbs muscular build. I ordered the XL tall. I live in Ottawa Canada so I needed a warm roomy coat like this. These reviews on here are all over the place and very inaccurate, some people say it's too big, it's too small . It's tough to go by all these *cough* wonderful *cough* reviews. For reference I wear large size t shirts from Walmart. I got an XL tall because L tall was sold out. The length of the coat is perfect but the sleeves are a bit long on me, I feel like the standard would have been too short on the coat as many have said, but the sleeves would have been better so pros and cons there. I'm not super tall but I wanted a longer coat. I would have preferred the large no doubt in my mind but I'm not swimming in the XL. It fits just how an XL jacket should fit. Next time I will get large, no biggie. Jackets are always going to be a bit bigger than t shirt sizes to allow for layering you silly people. Duh. The material is nice and tough the lining is very nice. The zipper is good quality. The front pockets are for HANDS not GEAR(stuff will fall out sideways) The strings to adjust the hood have an interesting design. The little beads you squeeze to choke up on the strings and keep them from moving are actually hidden inside the trim of the coat which is a classy little feature, they aren't swinging like every other coat out there. The gussets on the back of the shoulders allow full movement, you are not constricted in any way. The elastic in the cuffs is pretty tight but should loosen over time. Overall it's a fantastic jacket and I really have no real complaints. It's beautiful and built exceptionally well. I will have to see how long it will last. I'm a mason and work outside often in the winter so that will be a good test to the longevity of this coat and I will report back here when it receives damage for you guys. I have had bad experiences with Carhartt pants. The pants are so expensive and they did not last in my trade at all. Better off going dickies at half the price FOR PANTS that's just my opinion on that. I will be buying the Bartlett again 100%. At the $174 I paid here on Amazon I think I the quality surpasses the price.

Amazing warm jacket, the fitting is just perfect it feels a little bulky on the chest though otherwise i can’t fault it
