Your Carhartt jacket fits poorly, and that makes work uncomfortable and less safe. A jacket should give you comfort, flexibility, and protection without being too loose or too tight. Midwest Workwear helps you solve these fit problems with ease, and we will explain everything in this guide.

Why Fit Matters in Workwear

When you wear a Carhartt jacket, you expect it to feel right. However, many times it does not. The sleeves may be too long, or the shoulders too tight. That poor fit can make you feel uncomfortable, less safe, and even frustrated.

Firstly, the right fit brings comfort. You move all day—lifting, bending, reaching—and your jacket should move with you, not against you. A loose jacket lets in cold air, while a tight one holds you back.

Secondly, fit affects safety. With Carhartt FR jackets, which are flame-resistant, fit is even more critical. If it is too big, it may snag or catch. If too small, it limits your movement, making it harder to work safely.

Lastly, a good fit means durability. A jacket that fits right will last longer. A tight sleeve or a stretched seam can wear out quickly. But when the jacket sits properly, it stays strong and lasts through tough work.

If you often wear thick shirts or hoodies under your jacket, go for a slightly looser cut. We have styles that allow layering without feeling bulky.
