Great Fit and Quality – Big & Tall Friendly!
I ordered these for my husband and they’re fantastic! The quality is top-notch, with durable fabric and great stitching. The color options are nice, and the length is just right—perfect for someone who needs a big and tall fit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, comfortable everyday shirts!

Durable, Comfortable, and Perfect for Everyday Wear!
I bought the Carhartt Loose Fit Heavyweight Short-Sleeve Pocket T-Shirt in the Crabapple Heather color, and it’s quickly become my go-to shirt for both work and casual wear. The heavyweight fabric is extremely durable, and you can feel the quality right away—this shirt can handle tough tasks without showing wear and tear.The loose fit is perfect for moving around comfortably, whether I’m working outside or just relaxing. It’s not too baggy but gives me plenty of room to breathe. The pocket is a nice added touch and comes in handy for small tools or a pen. The color is unique and adds a little something different compared to the typical work shirt colors, which I really like.This shirt also holds up great in the wash, with no shrinkage or loss of color. I’ve already bought a few more in different colors because they’re so dependable. If you need a tough, comfortable t-shirt that’ll last, this is it!

Review from My Husband
What my husband said: This Carhartt tee is my go-to for work and weekends. The heavyweight cotton feels durable yet soft, and the loose fit gives me plenty of room to move. The terracotta color adds a nice pop, and the chest pocket is super handy. Great quality and comfort!

My pick of work T-shirt after testing out several brands
This is the best shirt out of several brands of work shirts I have tried. I tried stocking up on Duluth Trading Long-Tail t-shirts because they had extra room called a 'tradesman fit' that's the opposite of a slim-fit shirt, that and they are a few inches longer on the bottom to prevent plumber's crack. The problem I ran into, price. Duluth Trading stuff is really nice, I mean REALLY NICE, but it's too expensive. From underwear to shirts to pants, I love their stuff to death but I went broke just buying 2-3 days worth of clothing.So began my search for alternatives. For a few days I wrapped my mind around all normal shirts being too short for me. One, I do not like plumbers crack and I bend down and kneel down a lot. Two, I conceal carry. Long shirts do 80-90% of the concealment for you if you have one, otherwise you have to dig a holster inside your pants and dig into your hip hard. Extra-tall sized shirts is a cheap alternative to the semi-custom size of the Duluth Longtail t-shirts. Next criteria I needed, price. Well pretty much everything is cheaper than Duluth, except maybe UnderArmour. But UnderArmour stuff is generally tight-fitting, so they lose that competition. These are shirts I bought in Tall size to supplement my existing longer Longtail t-shirts:Fruit-of-the-Loom (FOTL) cotton t-shirt from Wal-Mart: Average fit around my body, feels like advertized size. Thin material. Cost $8 in Wal-Mart, cheap but it's not a quality shirt at all and doesn't compete with the rest. It's just a grade lower. It's a cheap shirt but I would still gladly wear this if I didn't have my other work-shirts.Hane's Beefy-T's 6.10z t-shirt: Cheap, less than half price of Duluth. Material is too thin for me for a work-shirt. Yes, even in summer I like thick material as it wicks more sweat away. The material was too thin for a work shirt, same thickness as the FOTL shirt. Slightly trim fitting, after break-in they are what I consider 'normal' for their advertised size, slightly more trim than the FOTL. $10 with Prime.Dickie's Big-tall heavyweight crew neck short-sleeve: thicker than the Beefy-T, but just barely. Same price as Beefy-T. Very trim fitting for advertised size, I would consider these as a 'trim fit' for very lean individuals to be comfortable in. Even if I was in the same shape as I was at 21, these would still be tight fitting.Duluth Long-Tail t-shirt (did not order as tall, ordered at normal height): Thick material, comfortable in summer by wicking moisture better and comfortable in winter since it's thicker. Two or three inches taller than other standard-sized shirts which spoiled me and now I order tall shirts from all other companies. I consider them nearly perfect shirts year-round but the price, I only have 3 because after shipping they run over $20 a piece from Duluth, and no Duluth does not have Amazon Prime shipping. Nice, very nice, but expensive to build a wardrobe with.Carhartt Big-Tall Work Wear Short-Sleeve t-shirt: Material is as thick as Duluth shirt. I ordered this in tall, and is 1 inch longer than the standard-length Longtail-T from Duluth as a result. Not quite as generous fitting as the Duluth shirt, but it's a good bit larger girth than the other brand shirts. Material is slightly rougher feeling than the Duluth but still comfortable even when bending non-stop. Costs $15 with Amazon Prime, 50% more than the Hane's and Dickie's but at least $5 cheaper than a Duluth shirt.My summary is the Carhartt wins overall. Thick enough, long enough, and I tested mine in 100 degree heat recently. Like the Duluth shirt, the thicker material worked to help wick sweat away longer than thinner shirts will. But I live in a very humid area a few miles from the Mississippi river. Very humid Mid-Spring to Fall. Lots of people might not need to fight humidity this much. I can stock 4 Carhartt shirts for a buck or two cheaper than 3 Duluth shirts, and anyone who works outside often knows you can often go through two shirts or maybe even three on a hot work-day in order to keep dry. So that means I can stock up on 12 shirts instead of 9 going Carhartt to carry me through a whole week without running out of shirts, even when a certain family member (you know who you are in each family) hides them in a clothes pile somewhere for a few days. The savings is enough to make a big difference for anyone buying a few shirts.

Need to remove the visible brand on the pocket
Like these shirts, except for the brand on the pocket.Sell them without the brand visible, and I'd switch completely to these shirts. As it is, I buy more of the competitor's shirts which don't have a visible brand.Fit is good.Quality is fine. These last multiple years with only a slight fading from washing.They don't breath as well as 100% soft cotton does, but if it isn't a really, really, really hot day, you'll be fine. These shirts don't leave much fabric in the drier either, like the competitor does in the first 5-10 washings. A viable trade-off - slightly less softness but more fabric remains on the shirts.
