How warm is the J140 compared with other Carhartt jackets?

It carries Carhartt's warmest rating, with quilted flannel in the body and hood and quilted nylon in the sleeves. It is warmer than the unlined Detroit and active jacs and comparable to the firm-duck jackets.

Does the J140 run true to size?

It has a loose fit and runs large. Many owners size down one step, and tall sizes add two inches of back length for a longer cut.

No. The cotton duck sheds light drizzle and blocks wind, but it absorbs water in steady rain. Waxing or a rain shell over it is the usual fix.

What is the difference between the J140 and the J130?

Both are flannel-lined hooded duck jackets. The J140 is the active jac with a looser cut and rib-knit waist; the J130 is similar in warmth but cut differently, so try both if fit matters.

What pockets does it have?

Two inside pockets plus outside hand-warmer pockets. The hood has a draw cord and flannel lining.

How should I care for it?

Machine wash cold and tumble dry low; avoid fabric softener, which cuts the duck's water resistance. Expect the jacket to soften after several washes.
