The Carhartt Detroit Jacket is possibly the one item (aside from the Carhartt knit cap) which has made its way into the style world along with being a nearly perfect work jacket. I've had my J97 Detroit Jacket since my early days as a mechanic, and now there's a new version of the Detroit Jacket with some updates!

Reviews of clothing, boots, and accessories for men, along with style advice and life philosophy. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well, and allows you to buy less and buy better.

I can't afford to burn my wardrobe of Carhartt products because I bought them and it was a great sacrifice to me and my family to buy the overpriced gear, but I knew it would stand-up to the rigorous work I would put them through, but I will remove the label and logo from all the products and will go and make my statement with product ratings on Amazon and any other platform they sell on. It's high time people learn that their opinions go as far as their nose sticks out from their face. You decide for yourself whether you take the jab or not, but you ain't telling me to do a damn thing especially after the supreme court ruled against those Draconian mandates. Go woke, go Broke!!!!!

I have a heavy canvas parka from China. Its extremely heavy and windproof though not waterproof. Given how poorly it moves, I seldom wear it on the go. It's my bonfire coat. Don't have to worry about embers melting plastic, but man is it heavy. Detachable liner was cool too. It came with a quilted cotton liner which made it heavier, but super comfortable. Its called the jundayi and it was what was originally used for workers and soldiers in China. Managed to get a detachable poly quilt liner from another store and its served me brilliantly. I'll use my timberland when I'm on the go, but when it's really cold, it's either the China black of the b3 bomber.

Hello Carl! I have watching your videos for apporox a year. Being in law enforcement there were so many junk jackets that the term "longevity" was not a term that was applicable. I quite accidentally came across a Dickies jacket. What a horrible mistake I made buying it. The zipper was so cheap it jammed with the material and basically I donated it. Absolute junk. I purchased my first Carhartt jacket shortly after. I was amazed by the 1) quality 2) the tuff construction 3) it had more room for winter clothes worn under the jacket even being zipped up. Well I've added onto my Carhartt clothing. We reside above 5000 plus feet and I depend on Carhartt to keep me warm down to zero degrees in our long winters. I hope one day Carhartt will add goose down jackets with a tuff exterior with a western blanket lining with western blanket yokes. Best and kindest regards, RJ

One of the main things being a wearer of watches I never liked with the popper sleeves is the bare metal back, it scratches the heck out of watches. I fixed it by glueing some thick felt over the back. But sleeves are always my Bete Noir as I have short arms so do prefer the poppers as I can then wear without the arms coming down over the tips of my hands. I wish manufactures would offer different sleeve lengths and the option of tailored of regular fit for each model. I remember in the old days many manufactures offered short, medium or long sleeve lengths. It can cost almost the price of s jacket to alter a popper sleeve or zip sleeve jacket to fit properly.

Carl Murawski, I used to do receiving in a Grocery and on busy with both overhead doors and the man door being open, I had to get a jacket to wear. The store winter jackets were too heavy. I bought a Dickies Canvas jacket with a blanket lining but couldn’t put my name tag on it. The Manager didn’t care I wore my own jacket as long as I had a name tag on. I eventually bought a Tough Duck one made here in Canada. That’s what I wore at work till I left due to my health. I did try the Carhartt but same issue as with the Dickies I couldn’t put my name tag on. I did keep the Carhartt one riding in cooler temperatures. That is till I left it in my truck and someone decided they needed it more than me.

I had a Detroit I bought in 2008 but I had a large and didn't wear it so much as it was a bit too big - I ended up giving it to a friend and always intended to replace it. I just kept on with my A2 deck jacket which now really is disintegrating I'm in the UK and the Detroit is a bit more pricey here - I'd previously ordered from the USA. I never did get round to replacing it, and post lockdown I think a large would fit me great 😁 I like the old cuff and length - not sure I'd go for the new one.

@@Klektic Carhartt brown! Like the older sandstone canvas material. Was a bargain and hardly worn. Easily one of my all time best hauls haha.

Quick question, if you don’t mind me asking? I want to order one, but on the Carhartt website, it shows the current Detroit jackets have non-corduroy collars the same color as the jacket body; they DON’T have the contrasting corduroy collars anymore, but it appears that yours does. When/where did you order your new one? Ideally, I’d love to get one of the older, made in the USA models with the corduroy and no drop tail, but since that’s seemingly out of the question now, I’d settle for one with all the changes as long as it still has the corduroy collar; really not a fan of the non-corduroy collar that’s the exact same color as the rest of the jacket. Thanks in advance, and great video as always!

For your sake, I hope it was one manufactured before 2019.

Awesome video! Can you please explain to me why some jackets have the leather patch and some don’t?

I noticed that you sized up for the new version. Have you noticed that it runs smaller than the original? I bought a M as Carhartt runs large and I typically wear large, but found it was too small in the chest.

Don't know about the Detroit jacket being the most popular but in my neck of the woods the chore coat and the artic jacket are been wearing Carhartt for a long time well before they became a fashion statement can remember when a brown (cotton duck ) chore coat with the blanket lining was 30-35 bucks

Nice vid. Are the modern ones build with the same quality, thickness and "stiffness" than the ones from 2000 ? I bought mine in 2003 and it looks just as new. Never liked to work wearing it though, so stiff that I felt like wearing an armor, and large sleeves coming in the way.

❤️ those old adverts. Brown duck water repellent. Men shrugged off the weather in cotton and flannel back then. Now they are drugged with the cosh of synthetics. I suppose they could wear it to wash the dishes.

I wanna buy one but the collar is a different color now, plus I see a lot of comments saying it’s not worth buying since the quality went down but I mostly just want the original brown collar back.

The Carhartt Santa Fe was (and is) my choice, a very similar jacket but unfortunately they keep taking it out of production, glad my Currant one is in good condition especially since I must have tall sizes
