Best men's Carhartt winter coats

Top pick: Carhartt Yukon Extremes Insulated Active Jac. It's the warmest thing here — Carhartt's own Level 4 "extreme warmth" rating, with a 150g Thinsulate fill and a tough 500-denier Cordura shell that shrugs off wind and wet. Loose fit so you can layer a hoodie under it. If you want one coat for real cold, this is it.

• Washed Duck Active Jac — the classic duck-canvas look and feel, lighter insulation; best for cold-but-not-brutal days and everyday wear.
• Montana Rugged Flex Duck Insulated Jacket — stretch duck canvas and a relaxed fit, so it moves with you on the job; Level 2 warmth, so a milder-winter pick.
• Firm Duck Traditional Coat — the long, button-front work coat shape with arctic-weight insulation; suits anyone who wants the old-school Carhartt silhouette and coverage over the hips.
• Insulated Hooded Work Jacket — lighter 60g fill and a stretch nylon shell; the one to grab for active days and milder cold.
