Amazon.com: Dickies Men's Sanded Duck Sherpa Lined Hooded Jacket, Brown, Large: Work Utility Outerwear: Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry

I bought this coat at least 4-5 years ago and I’ve finally worn it out so I just got a new one. I highly recommend this coat, it’s super warm and comfortable and takes quite a beating. I compared this one vs the Carthart and for the money I think this Dickies coat is superior

So far so good with this one. It's been anywhere from 10 to 35 degrees since I bought this jacket and it's nice & warm. I also picked up the matching bibs which are warm as well. You almost get hot wearing both together while being active (scooping snow etc.) The "sanded" feel is nice but seems to attract little stuff to it (not a big deal). I'm 5'9" and 170 lbs but I have long arms. I went with Large to be on the safe side and it fits pretty well. There is definitely extra room in it and the arms are nice and long. I'm guessing a Medium would have worked as well if I wanted something a bit more snug. The jacket has nice deep pockets so that your items won't fall out. It's also got 3 inside pockets as well. One is small and probably meant for a little clamshell phone (I doubt too many people have those still) but it could work for keys or something else small. The other two pockets are full size, one has a zipper and the other has a velcro latch to keep items intact. The hood is a bit big but if you have it up and your jacket zipped all the way it's sized just right. Although if you go to push it down the zipper will push against your chin if it's all the way up, so it's best to zip it down a bit first. The jacket also has snaps on the wrist to tighten/loosen them, which helps keeps snow out. Over all it's a great jacket for the price. I can also recommend the bibs as well, especially considering you can get both for around $100.

Now before i go into detail, I work in I.T. so i don't do a lot of outdoor work or labor intensive stuff. So just take that into consideration. I've never had a Carhartt jacket, though I've seen them and they looked really nice, but if you don't want to pay for the name Carhartt to be on your jacket, get one of these.That being said, even if i was to be working outside a lot and doing some ruff tuff work, i wouldn't be worried that this jacket would get torn up. It seems pretty tough to me. I use it as my winter jacket and its perfect for that. The sherpa lining on the inside around the torso is wonderful for those bitter cold days. I live in Ohio, so we get some pretty cold winters. I wore this even when it was about 5 degrees outside and it still kept me warm.This coat has plenty of pocket space. The outer pockets can keep your hands warm, I'd recommend wearing gloves on those really cold days. If it's in the 30's outside you could get away without wearing gloves. The inner pocket is nice. I sometimes keep my phone in there or whatever. It can zip shut so thats really nice too.This jacket is more than worth the money. Its built tough and really warm. It fits really nice too. I'm 6'1" and i got the extra large. Not too big, not too small. I love when its cold outside, then i get an excuse to wear this coat. I'd definitely recommend to a friend

Nice coat!! Looks good on, warm and the inside pockets for your phone, are a plus, there's 3 pockets in total, for wallet, credit cards etc... looks like it will wash nice. Worth the money, true to size, so buy the actual size you wear.Thanks Amazon!!

These are my favorite work jacket. About 7 years ago I bought one and wore it for everything (work and casual) and washed it whenever it needed it which was often.. It lasted 3 years of hard use and I sort of felt like it should have lasted longer at the time. I blamed it on the lighter fabric, but it was always warm, At the time I thought it should have rib knit on bottom of jacket to keep draft out. It fit well and the hood is almost as warm as a hat. The cuffs are right for work with very durable rib knit recessed under shell, with snap adjustments. Heavy brass zipper. After it was worn through on sleeves and front pocket areas, I retired it to cover and insulate our booster pump.When I retired the Dickies I was given a Carharrt by my work which had a great design and 12 oz duck fabric, I thought it would be better and last longer. It was size XL where my dickies was large, and the Carharrt was fleece lined. Within 6 months of what I considered careful light use, the Carharrt was worn through in places. First the arm just from putting my arm in window of truck I patched it and babied it. Kept using it but would take it off sooner than later while working, brush instead of washing when possible, keep it out of harms way. It is 2 years old and frayed on folds and patched ingeniously at cuffs, inside the pockets and there is some new wearthrough on the arms I don't think I can patch The only thing that looks unworn is the back which should tell you something. It hasn't seen a lot of sitting down. It was never as warm as the dickies. I trusted it more with barbed wire and brush work, but the material wore faster than the dickies for some reason and never as warm or comfortable. I liked it though, and the pockets were great and shape/design was great. I tried many other work jackets and military jackets, and finally concluded the Dickies TJ350 (this jacket) is best all in all and lasts as long as any of them (lasted me longer). So I ordered one as season is winding down. It fits exactly like the old one. I wore it on a walk this morning at about 30 degrees before sun was out and it is warm. Same as my old one, outer fabric feels light which used to worry me, and small draft at bottom when starting activity, but not as much as other jackets, and I know from "longitudinal" use under rigorous conditions, the lighter duck fabric lasts at least as long as heavier duck; longer in my experience. It might be because it is more flexible and there is less abrasion when it moves? The pockets are not as "modern" but it has everything you really need (pen loop and side zip front would be nice but oh well) and is has a light lining in the hand-warmer pockets. I am going to buy a few backups of these as good deals come up and be smarter about patching and using them. They are great. It is possible there is a tougher jacket out there, (maybe the walls Kevlar or the Carharrt cordura extremes?), but I have a new respect for this jacket. and it is a good feeling to go back to it. The fit and warmth are identical to my old one. If you cant tell, I got a little obsessed with this, but when I have to do deal with cold and money was so tight, It was very important to me. Heavyweight base layers and light warm mid layers are worth knowing about too, but this jacket is warm and comfortable all on its own.
