This is far and away the best Carhartt review on the internet. Thank you. . Your Comments section is really good. Few, if any, stupid comments. You have serious viewers. That shows how strong this review is.
Not really. Depends. Idk it it's all of them but many are made in mexico now. I got a sherpa lined hoodie about 60 bucks (not waterproof that one I think is a bit more or cheaper) and it's made in mexico. Mind u got it from a reputable store in NYC. Had it for like 5 years now.
@@robmalcolm8042 I finally did buy one locally (Sportsman's Warehouse, made in USA). If you go to Carhartt's website, they list the USA stuff with an American flag icon. I also have bought some of their non-USA stuff, because I still want to support them over other companies that don't make ANYTHING here. Carhartt has four USA manufacturing plants. www.carhartt.com/ .
so can you give me my money back for fake advertisment. Carhartt vest and overall from tractor supply say beautiful mexico. Not from the “U.S of North America. But still warm como mierda recien salida, Duluth Trading Co Though ehhh really good
@@BlaxkRaven02 Most Carhartt products are NOT made in USA. That is why you have to check the label on each product. But, they operate 4 plants in the US... which is a LOT more than most companies! I will always support a company that operates some US production over companies that have ZERO US production!
Awesome video. Answered all the questions I had and saved me another day trying to figure out which jacket to buy. Its getting cold out here in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 and my Carhartt Bartlett isn't keeping me warm outside at work anymore. Thanks again
I happened to be in the market for a winter jacket for this season and ended up going with the J130, the J140 with double sleeves (inner and outer layers) . I'm over in NC where it gets really cold, lots of wind chill, but no snow. Thanks for this breakdown, the selection of jackets is pretty overwhelming when trying to find the warmer ones.
I wish my winter is as warm as NC. I live in North Dakota where winter is always at least 0°. Then with wind chill it's easily -20°. Some days even negative -50 to -60° is a possibility. It sucks.
I just bought a J133 (made in Mexico) in a second-hand shop in Europe for 25$. Pretty cool jacket and it's new and still stiff. Can't wait for the winter to start :)
Both do really well, I wear the duck jacket in till December then the extreme till March. And if it’s terrible, I wear a Carhartt Sherpa hoodie with the Carhartt extreme with my Stormie Kromer rancher.
Thanks SO much!!! Getting ready to move out of the chair and into the weather right in the middle of winter. Carhartt has so many fabrics and linings and they won’t temperature rate?!?! You ROCK brother!
I work in walk-in freezer a lot got called to a job today and brought this jacket, was in a below negative freezer and I can say I was surprisingly warm and comfortable 100% worth the money is stiff tho
I like the C55 I live in Canada and it does it all. The longer body and pullstrings allow me to really tighten in down in windy snowstorms. I kinda like the look better than the jackets too. Imo
I recognize the keeper of the plains!!! I live back in Alaska now but have family in and used to live in Wichita. I have the C55. It's very warm and really nice, and great if I'm going to be outside for sky length of time. I'm not a hood fan, so I'd prefer the C55. But i find even in South Central Alaska, the C55 is too bulky and heavy to run errands in. I might wear it on a job site inspection in January, but definitely not a daily coat since I work in an office.
I have a coat with the Arctic insulation. It’s ridiculously warm. Walk a few blocks in 32° weather with a flannel or hoody underneath and you’ll start to sweat.
Actually the warmest jacket is the #100115001, RN#14806, It is the Arctic down jacket. I don't even know when it was made, but I have two of them from probably 2008 or so. I honestly cannot wear it unless it is 0 degrees Fahrenheit or colder. And at that point you're just wearing a T-shirt underneath or maybe a long sleeve T-shirt. And then you just unzip it when you start to overheat.
I just left Wichita and came back to maine! I never even wore a jacket when I was in Kansas for 3 hrs! I definitely need one now that I’m back in mine ugh
I have the C55 in small and the J133 in medium. The J133 is small would be too short where the C55 in medium would be too baggy in the body, I'm 5'10 170lbs. I've had the C55 for fifteen years and it's still pristine. I've only washed it one time to rewaterproof it with Nikwax. The new Arctic Extreme coats and jackets are ugly and made of thinner Cordura. You're better off finding an older used one in excellent condition than wasting your money on the new ones. Owning the C55 and J133 in great condition makes me feel like I hit the lottery. I also have a North Face McMurdo parka I got for $50 used but it's really heavy and super hot. I have twelve vertebrates fused in my back with metal implants so having something that keeps the elements off is really important. You did the internet a solid with your review, sir. The J130 is robust until it meets the washing machine, I had it years ago but like you said the comfort is far greater than the J133 which is like wearing a gun holster since it's made of 1000 Cordura instead of cotton duck.
I love the review and the jackets. My only opinion difference is in the pockets. I like the unlined pockets because I put tools, syringes for vaccinations, or spare shells in them and have an easier time retrieving them with gloves on when they are unlined.
I have the coat. I don't even zip it up until it gets below 20 degrees ! The only thing that's different from the one in the video. Mine has a black and Grey patch on it.
Try other brands hard to find but cornerstone is one I am going to buy from maybe Cheyenne jackets, or the one with a bear on Amazon;):) goodluck and blessings n love brotha 💗
I haven't tried that coat. Looks like it has 500-denier Nylon shell - my J133 has 1000. It does seem Carhartt is making a few changes because when you search J133 on their website it now re-directs to style 104458, which is similar but uses 500-denier instead of 1000. Not sure if they are bringing the J133 back or not. Overall, I'd expect that Full Swing Yukon to be very warm and durable, but it's hard for me to say without trying it. I have the Full Swing Chore Coat, definitely allows more movement in the shoulders. Sorry can't be more help
So is the 1000 better than the 500? I’m also looking at the 104458 looks like it is replacing the j133. Currently have a j140 medium. But when I do size selector on their website it recommends a large. When my medium j140 fits great.
The problem with Carhartt is the inconsistency of sizing within the brand. Love the product hate the headache of guessing about and I started just ordering a bunch from amazon and sending back the ones that don't fit. This definitely helps, ever consider doing a video on the vests and the different t shirts. That would be amazing, thanks!
@@ES-qe1nh I'm finding some weird things though depending on what country they are made in. Some recent issues are the armpits are super high and tight on the Armstrong full swing. The length and width was fine just super high pits. I couldn't go up a size it would of been too big. What I'm noticing is the relaxed fit are being more consistent and closer to regular sizes. They are working for athletic builds. As for myself or anyone in between small and med it's pointless trying to make a original fit work. They skip a size imo.
Hey mate, I'm 6' 160lbs, ordered the Med in a J140 and J131 and they're both massive. Was going to exchange them for smalls but am wondering if the arm length is going to be too short? Also have you tried the Bartlett? I'm wondering if that's a slimmer cut. Thanks, love your videos (and website).
ik this was 2years ago but i got a small and it was too small for me im 5,9 160lbs if i replied back then ide say medium would be the best fit even if the medium feels huge its like that so you can move around in it cause for me i felt very restricted in the small
J130 and J140 almost identical. The J130 has the broken in feeling off the rack. The firm duck of the J140 provides a little more wind resistance etc, but overall the warmth is very similar. Yes, they both can handle most all winters unless we are talking about arctic conditions (then I'd go J133). I own both. My old J140 that I just quit wearing has been washed so many times, it feels just like the J130 now. So over time, even the outer shell difference disappears.
@@wwcreviews yeah i think the only difference with the j140 is they added a coating for water/wind resistant which eventually wears off over time and each wash..... i just purchased the j130 then found your video lol
I have this one its really a good investment I paid 129.00 the hood don't fall back n it sits ryte I. Back of head wen not in use yes its stiff at first but its nice i had it for 3 weeks.not much noise wen u move.yes its light as well i got the L I have while shoulders. Really great jacket
I've had the 140 version for years. It has holes all over the cotton exterior fabric. Sleeves-where the knit cuff meets the cotton arm, shoulders, hood opening, pocket exterior, zipper edge. I've never even worn the coat in a work environment. It's a decent coat but its the worst coat I've ever had in my life in terms of exterior shell durability.
This is got to be just about the most detailed, clear, concise explanation of cold-weather Carhartt gear available to humans. Excellent work!
I use the J140 on the Great Lakes freighter and love it. Very warm
This is far and away the best Carhartt review on the internet. Thank you. . Your Comments section is really good. Few, if any, stupid comments. You have serious viewers. That shows how strong this review is.
Made in the USA is an extra big selling point. I'm looking at buying one of these in the near future. Thanks for all of the info! It helps a lot!
Not really. Depends. Idk it it's all of them but many are made in mexico now. I got a sherpa lined hoodie about 60 bucks (not waterproof that one I think is a bit more or cheaper) and it's made in mexico. Mind u got it from a reputable store in NYC. Had it for like 5 years now.

Easily the most indepth and detailed review and breakdown. Can I send you a giant list of things I’m looking for reviews? Hahaha
Glad it helped!
i live in minnesota and get through the cold with a J131 and J133. if i lived in a slightly warmer climate i'd make a go of it with just a J140
“If you rob houses for a living, this jacket will not work for you”- 10/10 advice
Thanks for the video I was torn between both but ended up buying the 133 hopefully its as good as everyone says
Great content! I live in Ontario, Canada so I just bought the J133. 🙌🏽
Is that the updated j130? With thinsulate linning?
Great review! Thanks, gonna buy the J140!
Glad I could help!
Just ordered the C55. Really looking forward to wear it.
@@samt8262 Well I’m really satisfied with my C55 really warm for now.

What's the warmest carhartt jacket but not bulky??
I bought my self j140 its really good for women to I love it so much . The warmest jacket I have
I have a coat with the Arctic insulation. It’s ridiculously warm. Walk a few blocks in 32° weather with a flannel or hoody underneath and you’ll start to sweat.
Thanks for the review, I’m in need of a new jacket. I work outside all winter & my current jacket isn’t doing a great job
Very useful video. Thanks.
Thanks for this review. I ended up buying a J140. It was tough making a decision, but being Made In The USA is what sold me.
😂😂😂😂😂😂

hello dude! What about the j130 model, its still warm enough
Ive always went with the black for warmth and comfort but i think the tan with the thick wool is warmer especially with a hoodie under it..
I love the review and the jackets. My only opinion difference is in the pockets. I like the unlined pockets because I put tools, syringes for vaccinations, or spare shells in them and have an easier time retrieving them with gloves on when they are unlined.

No j133s on their site anymore? I couldn't find it there or on Amazon.
What about Carhartt Yukon series?
I have a question about one of your reviews, how can I get in touch privately?
Every time I look for one to buy, carhartt seems to not have it, and every other site I check is out of my size(medium or Large)
Try other brands hard to find but cornerstone is one I am going to buy from maybe Cheyenne jackets, or the one with a bear on Amazon;):) goodluck and blessings n love brotha 💗

Nothing wrong with complaining another mans body. Nice job boys.

What about the rockland quilt version? It feels warmer than my sherpa version
I need one of these this houston cold is killing me

Is the jacket good for -35c for daily use (non constructionenvironment)
Would the j140 br be warm enough for Minnesota winters?
Between the j130 and the j140, which is the shortest of the two? Also, are the cuffs on the j130 the same as the j140.
Good video
Hey bro I bought the carharrt 103371 211
Full swing jacket what would that go as ? Is it close to the j133?
great video,
I just received j133. It seems super thin. I hope its warm
Could you do a video on the carhartt vests
I would imagine they're the exact same, but without sleeves.

I have both. The quilted lined is much warmer than the arctic imo. By the way Kansas has to be cold as s*it.
The 1 dislike is from a North Face fanboi.
How tall are you in cm and what size jacket is it?

Why is it got India made on the tags now? How did that happen?
What do you think about the thinsulate insulation? I bought a updated j130. Washed duck.
I recently bought an updated version too. I'm not sure it is as warm as the old version. Not bad, but I liked the quilted flannel personally.
what are your measurements? I'm 5'11" 44inch chest, 33 waist and 200lbs what would you recommend? Cheers 👍
Bro im 5'6" 42 chest 175...got the XL ...washed and dried it and it shrunk down just fine...
Soooooo, what is Carhartts warmest and toughest jacket? It was unclear.
I have both and the j140 is warmer than the 133, they say artic quilt is the warmest but my experience with both coats is the j140 keeps me warmer
@@koolmanlou1058 I was being sarcastic.
What part of Kansas brother?
J133 is hot! It’s gotta be real cold or get get ready to sweat
Very true, especially if active on job
RIP to the J140 with quilted flannel lining
Why?
Local kansan here very nice
The new version of the extreme is slimmed wayyyyy down
Since you’re on the taller side I would suggest a large tall.
I have this one its really a good investment I paid 129.00 the hood don't fall back n it sits ryte I. Back of head wen not in use yes its stiff at first but its nice i had it for 3 weeks.not much noise wen u move.yes its light as well i got the L I have while shoulders. Really great jacket
i'm 173CM, 70KG, SMALL IS OK??
You mention that the cotton shell is tougher. Cotton doesn't retain any insulating ability if wet, so there's a trade off on this choice.
I subscribed being a carhartt fan
Great video, I too live in Kansas. Go chiefs!
I've had the 140 version for years. It has holes all over the cotton exterior fabric. Sleeves-where the knit cuff meets the cotton arm, shoulders, hood opening, pocket exterior, zipper edge.

Mine has performed exceptionally. Maybe you got a bad run
J133 is made in CHINA!

Yukon extreme is the warmest
Too fukn warm,as soon as i enter a room i have to take it off. These are great for being outside though
Genius level stuff right here.
@@Mike-dy8sj right.... wtf? 😂
I love my Sierra sandstone jacket. I have multiple jackets, overalls and clothes.
Check out my carhartt gear
Mr bald carhartt.
Eyyyy. Thats wassup my city 316
Wtf is this?
I got a Yukon Extreme and it’s 10x better than the basic jacket i see in these pics.
Mine is way different
Ok I found out I got the Yukon extreme Parka. 👍
Who cares?...
2009ish the jackets were much better back then & the logo was different.
