That's why their shirts disintegrate after two years & you can find them for next to nothing on the internet. The pants are no better than Walls, Dickies, Ariat, etc. Jackets too.

Carhartt is clinging to the fact that broccoli heads want to ironically look like working men.

Boycotted them after their CEO became an unhinged JABBER during the Chinese Bat Flu. Do not buy this crap.

I pulled a long sleeve shirt out Sunday to wear while working outside and realized that the Carhart shirt was one that I bought in 2003 while on a turnaround in Arkansas.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll throw away my last jacket. I found out a couple weeks ago that some of the nails used to frame my house were from China so I went ahead and burned it down. Also found out the guy that fixed my plumbing once voted democrat so I poured concrete down all my pipes.

Now I’m living in an American made tent and shitting in a bucket. Man, I really showed them. My $2000/month health insurance doesn’t feel so bad now.

Settle down Nancy. Too early to be so triggered.

I have a carhart coat and bibs I’ve owned since the mid-1990s. They are tough as hell.

The only carhart items I own or will own.

I can't keep track of the shite I'm supposed to boycott at this point. I have a really warm Carhartt jacket I wear to do things around the yard in the winter, it's over 10 years old. It's durable, I have put the thing through hell.

Carhartt’s hooded jacket has been arguably the best purchase of my career working outdoors. Cuts the wind incredibly well.

The rest is shite and I agree

Along with everyone else. My new car is 3x the cost of my 2011 E350 and it is a POS. Rattles, trim piece broken. The quality of literally everything is worse than 15 years ago—infinitely worse than 25-30 years ago

Thanks to the douche nah social media folks, carhartt is expensive as frick now.

The other one that mildly annoys me are those folks wearing camo. Knowing damn good and well they haven’t ever been hunting.

Absolutely not true. Everything Carhartt in my closet is tough as nails and apparently, others agree. And what do you consider cheap? The average price for a basic Carhartt T-shirt is about 30.00.

Seems like a great marketing strategy

I don’t wear Carhartt. Looks like cheap labor wear.

Everyone wears it here, except the poor.

I still have double front jeans I bought from the Mountain Shop in Skagway 15 years ago, and they are in great shape.

Huh.. You showed them. You pussies. What happens if every CEO of every company comes out and says the one thing you don't agree with them on?
