CarharttMen's Yukon Extremes Loose Fit Insulated Coat

Although Carhartt Men's Yukon Extremes is more than twice the cost of other coats, I am extremely tired of nice looking coats lasting for 2 season before they needed major repair or the trash can. There are deals of cheaper coats but I now perfer brand name proven clothing.This is a very well made and perfect functional coat for winter. My main reason was lounging outside observing the sky during the winter. During these phisyically inactive times I can get very cold.The medium size was generous enough to wear another a sweater unerneath but still not feel comfortable. It looks plain and simple. 500 Cordura fabric is the material Motorcycle jackests of made with. It protects against light rain. The Full swing makes this jacket feel less bulky.I do no like hoods as they are very confining especially when looking at the Sky. The arm length is perfect.The zipper and snaps are heavy duty. Most of the seams are hidden or double stitched. Four large pockets with snaps. Great insulation without being balky.This is a very good price for this Coat.

I wore it all last winter. I'm an office dweller, so it didn't get abused outside aside from daily walks with the dog. However, I have a newfoundland who needs to walk every day in the winter (he loves cold) and this coat was great. Never cold, and wind can't get through it. It also has some reflective goodness since I almost always walk him after dark. It looks good too.I did wear it accidentally on a 40ish degree F walk and had a near death experience I got so warm.

Surprising amount of protection from the cold. Material appears to be tough enough to survive rougher environments/snags. Also works well against the wind. Consider sizing up. I’m normally a medium with wide shoulders but medium was snug. Impossible to wear with a sweater underneath. Large did the trick. Overall it’s been a fantastic work jacket. No regrets

I purchased the XL tall, and I could have easily gotten away with a Large tall. Very adequate room for layering, but too much for the coat by itself. I suggest doing research on ANY newer Carhartt purchases via the serial number if it doesn't explicitly name the fit type! I have no idea why they think it's necessary to make their 'loose' fit, but it's definitely not for me. With a heavyweight hoodie this coat is more than adequate for below zero temps. Unfortunately without extra clothes under it, you'll find yourself swimming in it. I will say that it's a quality made product, and extremely warm. It's also very nice to have a sleeve length that's actually made for taller individuals, so kudos on that as well. To sum it up it's a great coat- just be wary of the size, since this is one of the company's new 'loose-fitting items. Apparently Carhartt doesn't think that men are capable of properly sizing their clothing, and erred on the far heavier side of things.

My regular duck Carhartt started looking all tathered and torn so I bought this. It looks very nice, almost like a fashion coat but it's made of cordura which is what they make motorcycle jackets out of. This jacket is very warm and it's not bulky like a traditional Carhartt. This coat feels broken in right away. My only criticism is that the sleeves are a little longer than they should be. So if you want a durable and warm winter work coat that looks really nice this is it.

Very warm and comfortable. Breaks the wind and keeps you warm in the cold weather and wet elements.Best cold weather gear Carhart has produced.

Why did I buy this jacket?I needed a jacket that I could wear when performing outdoor activities and not worry about getting it messed up/damaged, and be easy to clean.Pros:-Warm! I have worn it in <20 degree Fahrenheit temperatures with no issues. Generally, I wear this jacket with either a hoodie or crewneck underneath. The coldest parts of my body are the ones that are not covered by the jacket-Great at fighting wind. I barely notice the wind, even in 10-20mph gusts, the jacket keeps me warm-Mobility is great. I was wearing this jacket to shovel snow and I had a great range of motion. I never felt like the jacket impeded my ability to shovel or move around-Plenty of pockets. Honestly, more pockets than I know what to do with-Easy to clean. I was carrying the family Christmas tree and got sap on the sleeves. On any normal jacket, this would be a pain to remove. However, just a few minutes with a lysol/clorox wipe took the sap off completely, leaving no residue. I didn't even bother putting it in the wash as it was not needed-Durability seems great thus far. I have worn it in the rain and snow with no issue. Great at holding up against pokes from sticks/branches. The jacket looks the exact same as when it arrivedCons:-The zipper can be a bit finicky. I have no issues with zipping the jacket up. However, undoing the zipper once you want to take the jacket off requires a bit of finesse-One of the features of this jacket is the ability to role back the outer/double sleeve so that the elastic cuff portion is exposed. While this is a great feature, be careful with having the sleeve rolled back and the elastic portion getting caught on the velcro. This can create some loose strands, but can be cleaned up with a piling remover or pair of scissors. (This is very minor but worth mentioning)Sizing:I am 5'7, 135 pounds, and ordered a small. The arm length is perfect, however, it is a tad tall. I would view this as a pro since if I lift my arms up, my chest is not exposed.If I could give this jacket 4.5/5 starts, that would be more appropriate.

I bought the 2xl tall jacket, I work outside all day and need flexibility in my jacket without it riding up or when you move your arms you are not restricted or feel the pulling like a regular jacket would.Never buy another jacket unless it is a Full Swing Jacket by Carhartt.

Beautiful jacket, fits perfect.

A certain upgrade and update on the original Yukon Extreme traditional coat, initially I was weary due to design change and the material isn’t the classic tough duck but it’s grown on me. Great pockets and really warm. For some strange reason the arm holes under the armpit is tighter than usual maybe to keep heat in? But a strong tough jacket that gonna last on the job site! A great deal.

Warm and good for work

it works best with layers. I wear it over a merino wool base with a slim heated vest and really thick hoodie.(My work environment sometimes gets down to -20⁰c with 30-45 km/h wind)
