Customer Reviews Carhartt Rain Defender Paxton Heavyweight Hooded Sweatshirt

Repeat purchase to the point of being ridiculous

This hoodie is EXACTLY the reason why girls steal your hoodies!!!

OBSESSED! Bought it as a gift and the person loved it!

Fits exactly like you’d expect your favorite hoodie to fit!

Perfect for my husband when he is outside working in wet weather

good fit

simple and nice

I didn't think that this hoodie was going to actually be water resistant and withstand the rain but not only does water immediately bead off of it , even if it is really starting to come down it lasts for a while before you get wet. It's really warm and can replace having to wear a jacket as well. Carhartt is always killing it.

Great quality well made sweatshirt. Heavy and durable. I prefer the loose fit, so this was perfect.

very impressed with the quality, nice heavy and warm sweatshirt, runs a little bigger in size

I ordered the Medium in Black for my boyfriend for Xmas, (he's 5'10" muscular build) but gave it to him early because he almost bought one in town. He mentioned that he wanted one because of a good recommendation from a friend. And so far, it has been pretty sweet. In any other hoodie he would have been soaked when it started pouring down rain when he was out getting firewood. He says it's warm, and comfortable. It feels light weight and that it the rain rolls right off.

Great sweatshirt. Works well!!

Runs large, but excellent quality and warmth

These sweatshirts are pretty good. The Cuff length tends to be long, color fades fairly quickly, and there is not much stretch (don't expect to pull the sleeves up to your elbows too easily. Washing the darker colors tend to fade pretty quickly. But for hooded workwear it is great. I've been using these for a few years now and I usually don't even need a jacket over this.

As you would expect, this hoodie is heavy and well made. It comes with a label that says it helps repel water, so the outside seems a little stiff, but you'd hardly notice. Overall it's very comfortable and warm. The sizing runs true, although the style makes it seem very long in the trunk, so when I first saw it I thought it might be too big, but I'd recommend ordering whatever size you normally take. There is a small pocket in the main pocket, which I suppose is for your phone, but I wish they'd put it somewhere else. But overall I do recommend, particularly if you're looking for a warm hoodie to wear outdoors.

Zappos you always amaze me! Carhartt not so much anymore. After years and years I am formally divorcing Carharrt from my wallet! You used to be a grab and go no brainer off the shelf but now I am beside myself with trying to get something to fit properly. They do not fit the same and are not built the same! And I am so over it! Ordered directly from you, then from Cabellas, Zappos, bought locally once again, all was an end mess! Nothing fits the same! I am over it! I am sorry you politely declined my review of criticism on your personal website. It just shows the business model you now hold. Hopefully Zappos will not do the same with an edit or deny my review. I speak only the truth! Shame on you, Carharrt! Sorry, Zappos, but I have to return this item.
