Carhartt Men's Yukon Full Swing Insulated Coat

Very warm coat with nice durable outer shell. Excellent quality. Purchased size large for gift for son who wanted extra room for thick sweaters.

A certain upgrade and update on the original Yukon Extreme traditional coat, initially I was weary due to design change and the material isn’t the classic tough duck but it’s grown on me. Great pockets and really warm. For some strange reason the arm holes under the armpit is tighter than usual maybe to keep heat in? But a strong tough jacket that gonna last on the job site! A great deal.

This is the best coat I have ever owned. I’m 68 years old. Because of my cancer I take steroids. Steroids cause weight gain I needed a new winter coat. I live in Ohio where it’s very cold and right now we are in a storm path that make drop 2’ of snow. None of my winter coats fit me right now. 2 other Carhartts, 3 winter leather coats, my full length dress coat or my under armor camo coat I wore hunting. Sooo I got this coat. It’s amazing. Warm Lots of protection Lots of pockets Drawstrings for your customization of your waist size Great zipper ( large and easy to see and zip)… other coats I tried had those TINY plastic zippers. The wind here in the last few weeks has been freezing and brutal. This coat completely blocks it. Getting in my frozen vehicle is no problem. I’m warm even before my F-150 heats up. Which is pretty quick. Sleeve length is great! My sleeve is 38”. I have extra with this amazing coat. Get one, you will never be disappointed.

I've worked in extreme cold environments for many years in my oilfield experience- including the ~50 below zero with 60mph winds of Western North Dakota...so the Carhartt name is familiar to me. This is a very nice, warm, windproof jacket. I've worn it in temps down to 25 below zero here in Colorado, and it was effective with those temps for hours (with matching bibs, which I'll review separately). The only thing I'd like to see different with this jacket is the outer hand pockets having no provision to secure them shut-- either snaps or zippers or velcro. They are positioned in such a way that stuff falls out of them when I bend over. I'd also love for the chest pocket to be accessible with a vertical zipper like the bibs instead of a horizontal velcro flap so I could put a cell there for easier access, but that's a small thing. One other thing I would really like to see in a future iteration is a cinch cable/strap around the mid section inside the lining to allow a tightening of the primary area of the jacket around the mid abdomen-- I'm skinny, so the reason this would help a LOT is that it would make it way more comfortable to sit in my truck seat-- as it is now it's so loose that it's very hard to sit comfortably without the jacket getting in the way of my seat belt or being bulky on my back. If I could cinch the middle of the jacket to my size better it would conform to my shape and make it easier to sit. I have another jacket that has this feature and it's a game-changer. Other than those suggestions though, this is a truly fantastic jacket (and bibs!) for the price, and I highly recommend them to anyone for cold weather weather.

This coat is one of the best winter coats that I have owned. Better than the duck cotton coats by Carhartt.
