Carhartt
-
Has anyone any experience with the actual work gear Carhartt? I wanna get a chore coat for work. Based on the measurements they have given me I would need a size small. I can't get my head round it. For reference I am a L/XL in most of my iron heart gear.
My mate may know. Will ask. You should also consider the Le Laboreur moleskin chore jackets. I picked one up for sixty quid shipped from France

I'll echo sabergirl- their stuff is always really big. I think I have a jacket that's size Medium and it's big on me. And I wear L/XL sized IH gear.

Thanks saber and Chris for confirming it’s always way over sized. I have ordered a small and will report back. I need some movement for work but the medium had just shy of a 50” chest lol

Anyone familiar with the sizing for the longsleeve pocket Tee and Chase hoodies (Zip and pullover) from the WIP line?
I'm mostly a large in IH UHF's and my medium chase sweater fits me pretty good, if that helps. i have a chase tee, also medium is the thing here for me. i could do a small but that will on the tight side. Can't compare to IH sweaters as i don't own one. But I'd be a medium in the IHTL-1301 too.

Thanks for the information, @illo59 . Would you mind posting a fit pic of your chase hoody along with your height and weight, when you have a spare moment?

I'm right about to leave for holiday but will post you a pic when i'm back home after Christmas!

Some quick and dirty fitpics for you (Chase Sweater M) and as a reference me in an L UHF. Hope that helps buddy @shoreman

However, I am a bit concerned as to how it will fit after a wash. Have you noticed any kind of shrinkage after a wash? (Care instructions say to cold wash and no mention as to how it should be dried but, I'm assuming an air dry is preferable.)

I always wash it with a bunch of other stuff on 40°C and air dry, i never use a dryer. I had no noticeable shrinkage…Fits slightly tighter after a wash but stretches back in no time. the chase t shirt shrank a good bit if i remember correct. @Shoreman

Thanks @illo59 I've decided not to chance it. Better to pay a little less on something I'm not worried about abusing or accidentally tossing in the dryer.
