Rain Defender®

Rain Defender Jacket
 

Rain Defender®, Durable water repellent—water beads up and rolls off.

Rain Defender® durable water repellent garments are just as functional and comfortable while fishing, hunting, working, or standing on the sidelines at a football game in a sudden November rain. Water will bead up and roll off your sweatshirt, jacket, overalls, pants, and more, so a little rain won’t stop you from finishing the job without changing your gear.

How to Measure

Diagram showing where to measure chest, natural waist, and hips.

CHEST:

Measure just under arms and across shoulder blades holding the tape firm and level. If your chest falls between sizes, order the next size up.

NATURAL WAIST:

Bend side to side and find the natural bend in your body; this is your natural waist. Note: It may not be the smallest point.

HIPS:

Measure the fullest point between your natural waist and crotch.

Note: For best results measure over your undergarments. Use a cloth measuring tape.

Fits

relaxed fit: slim across shoulder, closer to body, shortened sleeve, shorter length Loose Fit: dropped shoulder, ease at body, longer sleeve, longer length

AWESOME!
Great product. Heavy duty and warm (as all Carhart products). Love the 1/4 zip and the versatility of the collar and hood. Purchased four as prizes for a recent work contest. The winners were all extremely happy! "Love it" was the common comment. Now, I want/need one for myself. :)
