Couple corrections from the video - I called the Super Dux their “warmest” rating, it’s actually their extreme warmth. Also, the Detroit jacket has a nice storm flap behind the zipper to keep wind from slicing through that zipper. Wish it had a split seam on the back, but no big deal. And I was WRONG about the sleeves, now that I’m wearing it, they are LONG. But I like it anyway.
I love Carhartt stuff (And Barbour waxed) Got the Bartlett, and the Detroit. (Both cotton duck, and Super Dux, along with 6 others) The Bartlett is the warmer jacket by far. But the Detroit, paired to a hoody. looks amazing, and if layered with said hoody, is nearly as warm. In terms of styling. The Detroit is a timeless classic. The only difference between the classic and modern iteration, is in the cuff stitching, the drop tail (Which I personally prefer), and the synthetic blanket lining (Which has it's pro's and cons) Love seeing videos on my favourite clothing.

I couldn’t agree more with everything you said. My Bartlett is warmer than my Super Dux - and according to their warmth rating system, that shouldn’t be the case. But it is, and it’s noticeable to me. As for the Detroit, you’re absolutely 100% spot on with your comment about the hoody. I had a hoody on last night as I was heading out…caught myself in the mirror and thought…wow this thing looks pretty damn good. And I’ll tell yeah, I’ve been getting a TON of compliments on this Detroit jacket. Haven’t really received many with my Super Dux. And the Detroit is warm enough paired with a hoody for sure.
I have the black version of this model. Pretty good jacket. I prefer the older American made variant with the trucker adjust but I appreciate the functional additions to the new version. The sleeves are an issue that were definitely fixed in this revision. But unfortunately the modern canvas doesn't compete with the old American made stuff. Regardless, it's a great quality jacket and very functional.
The sleeves are a little long, I just measured them against my Bartlett and Super Dux, and they’re around 1.5 to a full 2 inches longer than both. My arms are pretty long so it doesn’t bother me. Definitely a quality jacket with some functionality built into it. Unfortunately I destroy jackets…every time I try to remember to take these things off before I go rolling around in something, I always forget or think I won’t spill something on them. Happened just yesterday in my Bartlett, I had the thing covered in salt and fluid film.
@@doublebase6509 zipper handle on my modern one broke just recently. Never had a zipper handle break on a Carhartt before this one. Obviously a easy fix but still sucks.
Just an update on this thing…I’m wearing this thing a TON right now. Arm length is very long. But it’s a warm enough jacket (perfect really) for weather in the 30-40 degree range. Material obviously is very strong, zero defects or stitching coming undone. I flip the collar up to keep my neck warm, and if needed I’ll wear a hooded sweatshirt underneath. Like others have said, I probably could get away all winter with this thing if I made some adjustments to layers, etc. But my Bartlett is my go to for that stuff. But the quilted lining in this thing is really comfortable. Great zipper too.
I think I’d end up being too honest is sales and probably lose every deal. Haha. Plus I’m always afraid to ask for this and I’d never be able to close. But it has always been intriguing. I love this jacket! I have beaten the crap out of it for almost a year now and it just doesn’t care. I’ll probably own this thing forever.
Man I got lucky this past Black Friday at tractor supply, they were bogo 50% off but the lady messed up at the register and I only payed $50 for 2 jackets
Nice! I’m trying to wear it here in the spring, and unless I have a sweat shirt underneath it’s not warm enough for me. Then again it’s April 5th and I’m still getting snow here in New England.
It's a very good jacket but like lots of Carhartt stuff it is very heavy to me. Also I dislike that the pockets aren't able to be closed with zip on the sides.
Yeah a lot of their stuff is bulky and made for movement. This particular jacket is big, the sleeves are long and you’re right about the pockets. But it’s a very functional and tough work jacket. This thing will last a long long time.
No kidding? I don’t mind it, but it’s definitely designed to be short at the waist. And it’s definitely short compared to my other Carhartt jackets. The sleeves are LONG. And I didn’t think they’d feel THAT long on me, but they are an inch or so too long, but in a way it might be a good thing when I’m reaching for things working. I like the jacket so far, but I’m getting this thing filthy very quickly (I usually buy their darker colors).
@doublebase6509 I just don't like how it looks when my shirt sits lower then the jacket, so I tuck my shirts in my wife says it makes me look like an old man hahah
@@doublebase6509 Tbh no ^^, but I am a lanky very tall person with long arms. It's perfect for me. But I can imagine that for the average person, the arms may be a little long. I do really like the shorter length of this jacket though, with classic fit jeans, the look is very cool and freedom of movement is excellent.

The first time you clean the Detroit jacket, have it dry cleaned. After that you can wash it. Enjoy. Take care.
@@carlcarlamos9055 interesting, thanks for the advice. Will do!

You should be able to roll up the sleeve cuff and snap it. I did that and the length is perfect and you really can't tell they are rolled up.
@ thanks, I’ll try that tomorrow.
great video man, the way you describe the jacket the entire video I'd say you'd be a good salesman 😁

I've bought my in black colour last december. Love it! Here in Hungary it is enough for winter weather.

I bought one 2 weeks ago but I hate how short it is.

@@doublebase6509 It's short because it's made for workers/truckers so the lower portion doesn't bother leg movement.
@@RavusNox-z5i yeah I agree. It does have the dropped hem in back though. And the arms are very long. Have you found the arms to be a bit too long?

Can you tell me the sleeves length? I'm 2inches shorter than you and im a little worries ngl lol
22 inches from armpit to cuff. 24 inches from shoulder to cuff. Definitely long
damn I paid 160 cad for this same jacket, damn Canada
That’s not all that bad, that’s roughly $117 American
