My husband enjoyed his new shirt of course he loves Carhartt so there was no doubt he would love this one as well

You've change the sizing and the fabric. I have severely of the older ones in 2XLT. These new ones fit more like a 3, or 4 XL, the sleeves alone are about 4 inches longer than before! I'm actually heavier than when I bought my old ones. They still fit fine, but I'm kinda swimming in the new ones.the fabric used to be much less stretchy and felt a little thicker, more dense. The new fabric is much more like Jersey knit t-shirt. It's thin and very stretchy. I actually wear these for work. You know, physical labor. I have serious doubts t that they will last as long as my other ones, some of which are over 10 years old now. Carhart has changed over the last several years. You've gone from making clothing that used to take a couple years just to get it broken in, to making clothing that won't last long enough to get through that same period. You've gone from making clothes for people who actually do hard, physical labor, to making clothes for people who want to look like they work.

It was not what I expected. I love my traditional Carhartt shirts. I have many of them both long and short sleeve. The Carhartt Force shirt, however, has a thinner, lighter fabric and a different fit. Some people might like this, but I will not be purchasing any more Force products. Another thing that I do not like is that the cuffs have insufficient elastic in them, which means that I cannot push them higher on my forearms and have them stay. I wish that Carhartt offered a long sleeve traditional t-shirt in the same color. That is something I would buy.

The shirt feels great. Perfect weight for outer wear in summer or in 65-degree weather or higher. Works well as an undershirt also. I get a lot of compliments on the fit and color. Will order more, so I don't wear this one out too soon.
