Carhartt Men's Rain Defender Paxton Heavyweight Zip Mock Hooded Sweatshirt, 13 oz.

I like the sweatshirt, although I didn't need to water repellant feature. The collar, zipper and big pocket are good and the hood will come in handy. It's more snug around the hips than my favorite heavyweight, quarter-zip Clarksburg sweatshirt that's made for women. I wanted another warm sweatshirt, but you only make the Clarksburg and it's only shown in black or gray right now. And the Carhartt store I was in had neither. But the Paxton should be good for working long hours at a desk in a house that we keep at a thrifty 68 degrees in winter, and also be great for yard work and walks in the woods.

Great sweatshirt a little big I did not need the XL Tall could have done something different I'm 6'2"

Its not the same length as regular sweatshirts, wouldnt have bought it if id known that!!!!

I really like this sweatshirt overall-it's a solid, heavyweight piece that performs well in tough conditions. The first day I wore it, it was 38 degrees with freezing drizzle, and I used it as an outer layer. It held up well. The rib-knit cuffs and waistband kept the wind out, while the mock-neck collar and hood kept my neck and head warm. It also shed light rain better than expected. I'm knocking off one star for two reasons. First, the color-I ordered Dark Tranquil Blue Heather, but what I received is noticeably lighter than shown online. Not a bad color, just not as pictured. Second, a durability concern. The material on the sides is already showing wear from reflective armbands I use regularly, which I didn't expect from a Carhartt product. Overall, still a warm, well-built sweatshirt, and the mock-neck collar is a great feature.
