New Carhart coat

[Walkin Horse]

I bought a new coat tonight on a whim. It is called a Crowley jacket. It looks to be made of spandex. Has anybody tried one. How well does it hold up. I don't think I will be welding in it. Is it waterproof.?

I'd never pay that much for a jacket without a hood.

I get a company allowance each year for clothing since I'm a Telephone man. I have sooooooo many jackets, hoods and no hoods. Carhart brand is truly my favorite. I have one of their extreme weather coats and it is unbelievable how warm it is. They make fine products that's for sure.

My wife bought me one, and I hate it. The hood is not detachable, so the thing is unwieldy and uncomfortable. Besides, I much prefer a cap to a hood. My idea of an ideal coat is the old Navy Pea coat; something that comes down to the mid thigh. Similar to the Crowley Jacket mentioned above. But what do I know; I hate Winter and prefer to stay by the fireplace if possible.

Interesting. I refuse to buy a coat that has a good attached to it. I'm the same way with a sweatshirt. Unfortunately, every time somebody gives me a sweatshirt, it has a hood on it, so I never wear it.

Spandex? -Does it match your yoga pants?

Yea looks is everything. Hoods are goofy looking. I don't like stocking hats either. I think it's got to do with when I was a kid and my mother made me wear them.
I have worn the duck cotton Carhart coats for 30 years but this is the first spandex coat I have owned. I guess I will be the first to write a review.

No they match my tractor/bike shorts.
