Carhartt Men's Extremes Arctic-Quilt Lined Coat


Extreme conditions call for a coat as ruggedly built as our Extremes coat. Water repellent, made of 1000-denier ; nylon with a nylon lining quilted to arctic-weight polyester insulation. The corduroy collar features under-collar snaps for an optional hood. There are two chest pockets, two lower front pockets, and two inside pockets. The split back with bi-swing design and pleated elbows allow for easier movement on the job.

Customer Reviews

Okay, heres the deal ... I am from California ... not too cold, where I lived and I would dance back and forth from Hawaii, often, there is not much snow. I got this jacket literally afraid of the cold winter. Here in Montreal. So, it's cold here and I must say. This is the strangest experience for me. I wear a jacket and my face is cold. It's cold outside, but there seems to be an electric heater inside this thing. Rain beeds off easy and it is hot. It's cold outside, but I as I have in my little Cacoon around. I bought the hood of this thing too. You must obtain the hood with this ... another twenty dollars for this. Now, for the quality. Whenever looking for clothes for me ... hard to find my size. Carhartt has my size! So, no feeling here with this freak. Quality ... Mannnn, indeed duty, the zippers are heavy and large. The material is like the skin of Rhino. What surprises me ... Well, I'm old school. If it is hot you got to be thick and heavy! Otherwise you will not keep you warm. Well, this is clear and not really thick at all. I would say just like a normal jacket thickness of normal weight. Nothing that would stand out. The only complaint and it really is, not because I do not care who it is that the jacket is stiff because of the material is done, but I'm sure that in time will soften and get more flexible, but for now ... 're a bit 'of a tin man. When it's cold outside ... I take the tin man every day ... Thus, synthesis. Put the jacket and are safe to go out ... This is a tshirt on. If I made a shirt with long sleeves and shirt as well ... and then God forbid a sweater over that ... I could go and see this thing in an igloo then. Too hot. T T and a pair or sweater and you are good to go -40. Everything ... take that and run with it ... Very nice jacket. I will never buy anything other than Carhartt now. The quality is too good!
