COMMENTS: Like everything I've ever bought by Carhartt, this thing is hefty, well-made, warm and sturdy, generously cut with plenty of room for multiple layers. My only complaint is that I thought the "thermal" lining was going to the same as the soft, waffle-weave type "thermal" underclothes. It's not. It's a stiff, scratchy, open weave fabric that is not comfy to wear against the skin. I thought I could skip my standard thermal undershirt layer with this one, but it's better for allowing you to eliminate one of multiple longsleeve or undershirt layers. Convenient for cold mornings which will eventually warm up.
It's great quality, hefty and warm. Just not a soft, cozy lining.
BOTTOM LINE: recommended
