Sometimes, you just need clothes that will stand up to whatever you throw at them. Whether you’re working in the elements, or enjoying the great outdoors, the right gear is vital. We looked at what Carhartt is putting out for fall and picked some of our favorites. It’s a good mix of style, functionality and fit. See what we found below.
For big guys, managing sweat is just part of the deal, no matter what the season. The Carhartt Force Cotton Delmont t-shirt exists to deal with that and more. Their moisture-wicking, quick-dry fabric helps manage sweat and keep you from turning into a big soppy mess. I found the amount of stretch and range of motion the shirt offers to be exactly what I was looking for. Plus the raglan sleeves just make the shirt look tough. Get it with sizes to 4XL starting at $21.99.
This hoodie is a beast. It’s not cool enough for a coat, but you need something to fight off the chill. It’s a Rain Defender hoodie which means it’ll be water-repellent if you’re caught out in a light rain. Even with the thick fabric construction, I didn’t get overheated with prolonged wear. This hoodie is pretty much perfect for me for fall. Get it in 4 colors with sizes to 4XL starting at $59.99.
One of my complaints about most workwear pants is that they’re only available in a relaxed big & tall fit. Carhartt’s Rugged Flex Rigby Straight Fit Pant stood out to me because it offers a modern fit without sacrificing comfort or toughness. Those of us with big thighs know how painful it is to be stuck in constricting pants all day. The Rugged Flex stretches with you, so you can move however you need to without restriction or discomfort.
This particular pant is available in 3 colors with sizes to 44 for $44.99, but if you need a larger size and more color options, look at the Rugged Flex Rigby Dungaree, with sizes to 54 starting at $44.99.
You’ve seen our picks from Carhartt for fall – now it’s your turn. Look at their big & tall department and pick out your own favorites. Not in the market for clothes? The Ashland Cap I’m wearing in the photo above might be exactly what you need.
