Anyone still buying carhartt after they fired their employees who refused the clot shot, gets what they deserve. Which is apparently overpriced chinese crap.

Now I’m living in an American made tent and shitting in a bucket.

You bought a $50 Yeti bucket to make up for all that didn't you?

People are going to put the Chinese flag in their bios before too long.

Workwear 1620.

I've spent an inordinate amount of time the past few years researching Country Of Origin.

I've been in a private trade war with China for years.

They definitely aren't what they used to be, flimsy for what they cost. I have Dickies in better shape after hard use than most of my Carhartt stuff.

Only thing I buy from Carhartt is the t-shirts....because they last forever. I'm sure I can find another durable t-shirt to buy.

LC KIng, 1620 Workwear etc

There are actually a lot but you have to shop at locally owned smaller stores that carry American brands like these because chains usually don't.

It's quite unbelievable. Bought some T-shirts to wear out and about a year ago and they are already worn out.

Just bought two pieces last year. Both hoodies, one a pullover, the other what I thought was a light jacket, proved to be a game changer on my hunting arsenal. Comfortable in 45 degrees and 20 with wind. And six pockets.
