My husband is an engineer and land surveyor and his attire for work does not include suits and ties. He wears jeans, tees, and flannel, all heavy duty for his work out in the field. When we shop for him, we look for great deals but also clothes that will last and give him the support he needs. We started seeing the Carhartt brand as some of sponsors of shows we watch on the History Channel and I looked into their website.
For 120 years, Carhartt has manufactured premium workwear known for exceptional durability, comfort, quality of construction, and fit that you can feel in the fabrics and see in the performance. Expanding the line from the traditional outerwear pieces, Carhartt now offers a complete product line for warm and cold weather alike that includes jeans and work pants, shirts, sweats, shorts, tee’s and accessories. A variety of features such as premium fabrics, rugged construction, and comfortable fit are just some of the hallmarks of Carhartt workwear that fit our customer’s needs in the toughest conditions.
We were able to try out some of their clothing that are perfect for my husband to wear daily at work and even on a night out with me, and that were durable! First we tried out the 1889 Relaxed Fit Jeans. They fit great on my husband, the relaxed fit gives him room to move around, they’re not too tight and they are made with flexible yet strong stitch! As a one-income family, the jeans are more money than what we normally spend on a pair of jeans ($50) but well worth the price as the integrity of the pants have held up so well and we can see them lasting a long time.
For a different look than denim jean, we found the Canvas Khaki Relaxed Fit Pants. Another fabulous fit, the pants look so nice on, my husband has hiked in the hills in these pants, and he’s gone to business meetings in them as well. The price point on this pair is $40, again well worth the money. Both sets of pants fit true to waist size and length and really hold up after repeat washing and the material was soft and not stiff or rough to the touch. Also my husband carries around everything with him, so putting his wallet, cell phone, keys, pens, measuring tape, and pocket knife in the pockets of both pants was easy to do without being uncomfortable when sitting, driving, or hiking.
In California, we’ve had a mild fall so far, but on the cooler mornings and evenings, the Men’s Duck Active Jac/Quilted-Flannel Lined. For $85 you have a great heavy duty jacket, lined with flannel, arms in nylon, and have an outer look of style. The outside of the jacket is a bit stiff but still flexible, you know its made very well with even my husband commenting on the great strong zipper. The jacket fits well, with plenty of room for a shirt and sweatshirt beneath in cold weather.
If you are looking for sturdy, quality clothing for that working man in your life, check out Carhartt, I guaranteed you’ll be impressed!
