CarharttMen's 103826 Bartlett Jacket - Sherpa Lined

I've been eyeballing Carhartt gear for some time, and I finally went ahead and got this Carhartt Utility (aka Bartlett) jacket. Really nice. I think they thought this out well, and nailed making it look stylish while still keeping it a genuine work coat.I just had to get the 'Moss' color but I couldn't find that color in a regular medium, so after reading many of the reviews, I took a chance and ordered the medium tall.I'm about 5'10"ish, around 160lbs and the medium tall actually fits my torso quite well. Not a crazy amount of extra material, and yet enough room to accommodate a low profile puffer vest when needed.The drop hem in back goes just a little past my butt, so as someone else mentioned here, the medium tall drapes the backside like a parka, which is going to be appreciated on cold, gusty days here in MI.The sleeves are where I really notice the difference between 'medium' and 'medium tall' - I have slender arms, and so the cuffs on the medium tall do extend over my hands a bit more than I'm used to, but again, I'd rather have them a bit longer than shorter.Other reviewers had remarked that the hand pockets were shallow, but I can comfortably fit my medium/large hands inside them, even wearing some medium thickness gloves.I really like the hood. As others mentioned it's not humongous, and sits well on the back of the coat. I don't have a very large noggin, and the hood covers my head nicely - I will actually use it!It's got the must-have zippered inner pocket, and I like that the velcroed pocket on the opposite side isn't too fiddly.Some folks also commented about the zipper not being robust enough. Yes, it could be bigger (and had a double pull, while we're wishing), but I don't think it's unreasonably small. For short jaunts I'll probably be relying on the snaps more.What makes it a true work coat? Triple stitching at all of the stress points, pleats at flex points on the shoulders and elbows, and reinforced cuffs.Certainly not an inexpensive piece of outerwear, but as Daddy always told me, 'you get what you pay for', and it will probably outlast me. :)

I've been wearing this jacket daily, and it has quickly become my favorite for both work and casual outings. As someone who works in construction, I needed a coat that could withstand the elements, keep me warm, and still look great—and this jacket checks every box.First, the durability is outstanding. It's held up beautifully to rugged daily use, showing virtually no signs of wear despite constant exposure to demanding environments and harsh weather. The material feels durable yet comfortable, allowing me to move easily during tasks.Warmth is another huge plus. Even on chilly mornings or colder evenings, this jacket keeps me perfectly comfortable without being bulky or cumbersome. The lining is just right—warm enough for more freezing temperatures but breathable for when the day warms up.The pockets are well-designed, practical, and easily accessible. I appreciate having enough space to store essentials securely. This jacket was thoughtfully designed with workers in mind.The fit is true to size, and I appreciate the attention to detail, such as the sturdy zippers and reinforced seams, which assure me this jacket will last a long time. It also cleans up quickly after a hard day's work, which is always a bonus.This jacket is a fantastic investment—practical, rugged, stylish, and versatile. I highly recommend it to anyone needing reliable workwear that is equally suitable for casual outings or outdoor activities.

Good looking, warm, with great guard agains rain.

This jacket fits me really well, I love the color, it’s really warm you don’t need a sweater with this.

I am totally pleased with this jacket. Although I am a (L) large size, I generally order jackets one size larger because I like having a bit of extra room. Having worn BDUs in the military for a number of years, I've grown accustomed to having clothing being a bit larger than needed. It's just a comfort thing. Anyway, other reviewers of this jacket suggested ordering one size smaller than what one would normally wear because these tend to run a bit large. Heeding this advice, I ordered the Large Tall version (I am 6"2" and about 175 lbs). I should have listened to my instinct and bought the XL Tall.The L Tall just did not give me quite the room that I prefer. No matter though. I sent it back and got the XL Tall. It's great. The quality of this jacket is pure Carhartt through and through. It's very well made and geared for heavy use. The sleeve length is perfect and I have plenty of room throughout. The pockets are deep and the snaps are tight and secure. The lining is very soft and comfortable, and the hood adjusts nicely. The only issue I have is that the zipper is a bit on the small side and a bit taxing to use until one gets the hang of it. I have used Carhartt products for years because their quality has always been above reproach. Although I prefer Carhartt products made in North America, this was made in India, which I find tolerable because it is so well made. All things considered, I am extremely happy with this jacket and can recommend it without reservation. God bless America and our troops!
