Carhartt Workwear Pocket Short Sleeve T Shirt Reviews Summary

Size and Fit

Pros:

• "These carhart shirts are perfect for big and tall guys because I wear a 2x and it’s still a bit big on me but for work shirts these are amazing even in the summer when it’s hot they keep you cool."
• "The material is durable yet lightweight and the fit has ample room in the chest and arms but isn't too big around the waist."
• "I usually wear XL with other brands, with these an L fits perfectly."
• "It provides ample room for movement, which is crucial for those physically demanding jobs."
• "This Carthartt t-shirt ran a tad large and that’s a good thing for a work shirt."
• "The sizing tends to be a bit larger than other t-shirt brands, but that’s a plus in my case because it hides my (somewhat large) belly🙂."
• "I am usually a XXL in t-shirts so I ordered an XL and it fits perfectly, with wiggle room still."

Cons:

• "The vibrant yellow color shows stains easily."
• "These things are absolute tarps."
• "I got an XL for my boyfriend because he wears XL shirts but when he tried it on it was like putting a 3XL on a medium sized guy."
• "I’m 6’2 185 on a good day and wear XL in everything because most shirts are too short for my torso. I got XL in these and they are equal to a 2XL+ in 'normal' shirts."
• "However, it’s too big overall and especially the sleeves are way longer than I like for any-shirt."
• "I won’t buy loose fitting again. 🤪I’m 6’ 210 and these are tents on me."
• "The size is at least one size larger than advertised."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "The fabric is great quality that is thicker than the standard cheaply made shirts you find everywhere else."
• "Material is durable but not uncomfortable or itchy."
• "The fabric is heavy duty, but not too heavy for the hot summer weather."
• "The Desert, nice, heavy material, doesn't attract dirt and fuzzies, fits well and is comfortable."
• "Good quality fabric."
• "The material is thick, but not too thick."
• "The material is very durable and moisture wicking. Thick but not too hot. Fits perfectly."

Cons:

• "The only other thing less than optimal is the logo on the pocket."
• "The material is much thinner than anything I have ever seen on a Carhartt product."
• "However the carbon heather (dark gray) has a decidedly different feel—not soft at all."
• "Material felt weird and overall just not what I was expecting to come."
• "Unfortunately 100% of shirts I have received made in Guatemala over the past 3+ years have been undersized, thin, and all colors, including solid, feel like polyester blends."
• "These are 60/40 cotton/poly blend, much lighter weight and are hotter."
• "The material although very durable is also very thick and heavy, so being for bigger guys keep that in mind these shirts do not breathe at all."

Design and Appearance

Pros:

• "Nice shirt but can Carhartt move the logo to either the bottom of one sleeve or the bottom of the shirt?"
• "I ordered two shirts from this seller, and they were amazing!! Also, the colors are spot on! And quite beautiful!"
• "The name Carhartt in modern days is like Levi Strauss to the miners a hundred years ago - it's just good stuff, nothing dramatic - fits the first wearing out of the boxx and holds it the same for a hundred washings in a dozen years."
• "They are thicker and fit better and a bit looser than Dickies!!!"
• "The new heather colors are polyester mixed."
• "The sizing tends to be a bit larger than other t-shirt brands, but that’s a plus in my case because it hides my (somewhat large) belly🙂."
• "Nice, basic shirt from a brand that's currently trending but has always been steadfast in the quality of their products."

Cons:

• "Still fine, but the colors as depicted aren't anywhere close to the colors you receive."
• "The only other thing less than optimal is the logo on the pocket."
• "Sadly it seems like Charhartt actually changed more than just the product name during the rebrand to 'loose fit'."
• "Overall I am VERY disappointed. After all these years of buying this Brand and type of Pocket Tee shirt I am going to have to move on the something else."
• "I'm not sure if Carhart licensed their name but these shirt sizes are laughable! I had to downsize by TWO sizes.... a SMALL and it is still laughably huge!"
• "Color is different from pic--much darker...navy but still goes well with any color jeans."
• "The only complaint I have, and the reason I dropped 2 stars, is because the color is definitely not the same as pictured."
