Carhartt Men’s Flame Resistant Insulated Coat

Very warm; reason I bought it.

 I definitely suggest you buy this coat if you are in the market looking for a very nice and warm FR coat

I wanted a coat that would keep me warm, move with me, look good and last a long time. I didn’t need the flame resistant but the way the coat looked I had to get it. I have no complaints. I will say this coat runs large. I always were an XL in everything but this one I had to return for a large. The large fits me like a glove with room to layer if I need too. I’ve already had a couple people ask where I got it.

I didn’t need the fireproof aspect but I do grind, smoke, and work on cars on occasion. I burn more clothes working, through winter, in my garage next to my propane heater then anything. More or less bought it for durability, warmth and because the seams and pockets are pretty stylish but still manly. In my opinion, It’s the perfect balance of style and practicality. That’s hard to find these days. There’s something very John Wayne/firefighter/gunfighter about the look which is why I pulled the trigger. 🙂 I live in the Midwest and upon arrival this jacket is plenty warm for working outdoors. Added to a base layer and a heavy weight hoodie you’ll be sweating and anything more and you’d be sweating and then freezing. Maybe it’s not warm enough for sitting still in a Midwest tree stand in January but plenty warm for active use. You ain’t wearing it inside long that’s for sure. Anyways, listen to the mass: Make sure you size down. I did and honestly still have plenty of room for a heavy weight hoodie. Arm pocket rocks too! Everyone says the zipper sucks but it’s metal and it seams okay to me upon first arrival.

The jacket looks rather dashing and the fire resistance came in super handy. I was walking downtown and noticed smoke billowing from an old brick building. I heard screaming children from inside and I knew immediately that there was a fire raging in there. I did not hesitate and kicked the old wood door in, sending splinters flying. That was a mistake. As the door burst in, the sudden inflow of oxygen caused great gouts of fire to blast me back. The hungry flames licking wildly. Fortunately for me I was wearing my Carhartt FR Jacket and was completely unfazed. I laughed and was emboldened. My confidence soaring, I ran headlong into the building. Through the fire and flames. Suffice to say, I was the only survivor with not so much as even a heat rash. I sat comfortably in the inferno as those orphans screamed and cursed the fact that the didn’t have my Carhartt FR Jacket. 10/10 would recommend!
