Gatekeeper · Oct 18, 2001

I'm looking for some pros-N-cons for Carhartt winter clothing. Is it a worth the money they want for it? Would you have it in your cold weather BOB? I want to get something like coveralls to keep in my trunk during the wonderful Wisconsin winters. Wadda ya know? Thanks.

I've got a pair of their insulated overalls, GREAT STUFF! Also have some regular overalls, work jeans, and shorts, all first-rate quality and tough.
Stay Safe,

p.s. Every now and then http://www.sierratradingpost.com has them on sale.

High quality tough long lasting stuff.I think that one pair of coveralls stashed in your car or truck just for emergencies would pretty much last you forever.

Definitely worth every penny. I have jackets, sweatshirts, and a pair of coveralls. They keep you nice and toasty. They're also tough and wear well. Go for it.

Also look for "Key" brand work clothing. Really good durable American made stuff.

All pros here! Well worth the money. The Artic lining is by far the warmest stuff I've ever had. Keeps the wind from cutting through. The bibs, coat and hood keep me nice and squared away for the cold Michigan winters.

Stay warm,
Tom

Carhartt is tops, definitely the choice of the discriminating coon hunter.

Have some Walls insulated overalls in addition to my Carhartts and they are very nice too.

Wow! Thanks! Looks like I need to use some of my "knife money" to invest in a set of Carhartts.

Carhartt also makes some great shirts. Pockets deep enough that stuff diesn't fall out of them every time you bend over. Been wearing their insulated coveralls for years. Get the kind where the sipper runs from ankel to hip and you won't cuss them every time you put them on ot take them off. Good Stuff, been out all day at 40 below and was not cold.

Another good thing about the Carhartt stuff, it is all cotton, and not as flammable as the nylon stuff. I won't allow anyone to wear nylon in my shop, too dangerous when around the forge or other stuff that is hot.

I wear the stuff for a living,
Walls, Work n sport, etc... are all junk compaired to CARHART! Carhart will last for years and not shrink like all the other shuff. Get the Bibbs and Jacket, you'll find you'll get a lot more use out of them than you will coveralls.
A little more money up front, but worth it........
