Testimonial Examples:
I have been wearing Carhartt chore coats for over twenty years of work as a Blacksmith / Welder. Whenever I buy a new coat, it lasts me for two years on my full time jobs. At this time it has a large collection of holes and worn spots. I then start to use the coat in my own business doing truck and heavy equipment repairs until I retire it. Then it is folded up and left on the floor of the truck to use as insulation to lie on when I am working under trucks and other equipment in the winter. By the time they fall apart they are about eight years old. Good stuff – hope they don’t change the way they’re made.

I bought my first pair of unlined bibs in 1996. I wore them coon hunting, bear hunting, farming, trail riding and about anywhere else. I got into ATV trail riding pretty seriously with some friends. We rode 4-5 days a week through rain, snow and everything in between. I wore my bibs every time we rode. When I got off the ATV they would be frozen solid, able to stand up on their own. I would use a pressure washer to clean them and throw them in a dryer so they would be ready for the next night of riding. I just replaced those bibs in June 2003. I finally wore holes in them milking 100 head of dairy cattle where my pant legs would rub against the concrete floor as I would prepare the cows for milking. I will continue to buy Carhartt clothing as ling as they continue to make it as tough as those bibs! They were well worth the money spent. As a farm worker / hunter, I demand a lot of the products I buy, and I expect them to last as long as I do.
