Reviews of clothing, boots, and accessories for men, along with style advice and life philosophy. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well and allows you to own less and own better. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

Finally, my sweater can now connect to my cell phone
Lolol. What is the world coming to?
Right! Because they’d NEVER put a GPS tracker in our CLOTHES!….because….OBVIOUSLY!
Very interesting vest. Your review is excellent, Carl. I'm intrigued, however, like you not convinced I need it, especially at that price. Thank you for the insights!
It’s certainly not for everyone!
good review
Great video Carl 👌🏻
Much appreciated!
Interesting for sure... really digging your beard, Carl! #BeardStrong
I have a Gilliam vest. I don’t wear it as an outer layer. I wear as a mid layer when temps permit.
I like that shallow V neck you have under the hoodie, I need something like that in my rotation
Ok that Clim8 sounds pretty cool. I'd love to try it out
You should! Its really intuitive.
Great review as always! I would love to hear your thoughts on the Montana Loose Fit Insulated Jacket. Carhartt has given it the same heat rating as the Yukon Extreme, which I know you speak highly of.
I think that may be the line which absorbed some of the Yukon pieces. It’s hard to keep track!
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, You should do a bespoke jeans video. It's hard to find info on who in the US does bespoke jeans.
I have the same Milwaukee jacket in black that I received from my old electrical company. It was a nice gesture but I found it quite restricting to work in. I will admit though, it did block the rain & wind pretty good, so it worked great for that when I was out in the bucket truck changing pole heads or replacing pole ballasts. I am no longer with that company so I recently gave it to my oldest son.
I am no longer in the field but I did pick up a heated vest from Ororo as I tend to be getting more sensitive to the cold as I get older, especially my back. I tend to wear vests a lot as I commute 1.5hrs to the office 3 days/wk and don’t like driving in a big bulky coat. The Ororo is definitely not work wear. The seller for me on the vest was that the neck warms which is nice but overall it’s ok. The battery sits on the side of your hip which stands out & looks lopsided. The heat zone on the back is the upper back & I’d prefer the lower half. Finally the fit is a bit odd. The cut looks like it’s made for people with beer guts (no offense) but doesn’t have a cinch. It fits normal through the chest & shoulder but flares out in the lower half a bit. It’s ok, but I think I would’ve rather looked at other alternatives.
As for the Carhartt, I do like the temp regulating as I often move from the office area, to our prefab shop, to the outdoors & back often throughout the day. But I’m not crazy about the two toned look & it doesn’t look like it offers much for warmth without the heat on.
Carl flexin in the thumbnail. Someone's been workin out.
Great review & solid bit of kit, but could really benefit from USB power support. This would open up so many more applications (e.g plugged in motorcycling, camping, hiking, etc).
Hi, we could have used a USB connector but it does not supply enough power if you want to boost the heat to max. However, we are digging into USB-C DP standard. Thanks for suggesting!
Sounds like an interesting vest that could work for some people. I love when things are made in USA. It brings a smile 😊. But if it's not made in USA sometimes I'll buy it anyways depending on what it is. I don't get bent out of shape where the thing is made. I am not a big supporter of things made in China if I can help it, but that's kind of hard these days. Sometimes I have no option. I like to look for quality products from quality companies is a little more important than where it is made to me.
it should have a usb A so you could use it with any bank power
For sure. 2 hours of battery life isn’t going to cut it. Like you said, if you could have your own choice of power bank, then it would make it more compelling of a product
Hi Puia, we could have used a USB connector but it does not supply enough power if you want to boost the heat to max. However, we are digging into USB-C DP standard. Thanks for suggesting!
The milwaukee heated under shirts are WAY better than the jacket. It’s right on your skin or over thermals and the battery is significantly smaller and sits near left front waistline. You can’t control the heat but Acme tools has them for 99 bucks for the kit which includes 2 batteries. There’s other no name brand versions as well. Heated gear is good for exactly what you said getting the chill out before you start or if you’re outside but not moving a lot.
What’s the maintenance requirements and how do you clean it?
No washing needed, just update the software lol
Hi 77Phatkid, a user guide comes with the vest and explains how to wash it safe. Basically, this "Delicate wash cool (30°C)" :)
Hey Bud, I’m a long time follower, I was wondering if you have reviewed Carhartt WIP products?
I haven’t, but they’re much more about style and fashion than work. I think they can look great though, and often are a trimmer cut.
Sounds interesting. Never owned a heated clothing item. I wish the battery was more universal. It should charge via USB and the battery should connect to the vest via USB. The dedicated charger is a weak link. I almost always carry a USB battery bank anyway. Thanks for the video.
Hi Bruce, we could have used a USB connector but it does not supply enough power if you want to boost the heat to max. However, we are digging into USB-C DP standard. Thanks for suggesting!
@@clim8tech Understood, makes sense between the battery and the vest. But the real hassle is having to keep a dedicated charger for the battery.
Thoughts on just wearing it over a long sleeve or flannel without a top layer ?
Hi jtdwp, yes you can, it really depends on your needs. If you have a top layer, it will limit the heating of the jacket and therefore preserve the battery :)
Catchy Name. Very 90's.
I wonder 🤔
You're right, the Milwaukee heated jackets do suck. I even tried 2 sizes to get it smaller and closer to the body but it was just terrible.
Yeah, they were one of the early adopters. Just a solid “okay” in my experience
What hoodie are you wearing in this video?
Ivan Vanko signature edition.
I spy an American Giant full zip! 🤩
Hahahaha yup!!!
@@CarlMurawski my all time favorite!
when I worked at a ski resort in -20 wind chill usually I would just cry instead of buying a heated blankie
One of my fellow supervisors suggested heated gear for the snow removal teams. So far no one else has shown any interest.
nice jacket at 3:00. What is that?
How do you wash it?
Hi Levi, a user guide comes with the vest and explains how to wash it safe. Basically, this "Delicate wash cool (30°C)" :)
Hey Carl are you going to do a style analysis on HBO Max's TV show The Last of Us? I saw that the main character Joel (Pedro Pascal) wears a Flint&Tinder waxed jacket
They would of gave you the name Rudolph on a new jobsite 🤣
Hahahaha “look at him glow!”
@@CarlMurawski Hi Carl, thanks for the video! You can now reduce the intensity of the LED in the clim8 app :)
People who own little Made in America goods really like to throw fits over it. I remember seeing a discussion about GoRuck changing to foreign manufacture at one point and bunch of people saying that their current USA made stuff was actually lower quality finish than the stuff made in Vietnam. I like to support local companies as much as possible, or USA made stuff when I can, but I've been focusing more on company ethics over place of manufacture. Big reason I love Patagonia's stuff so much.
If that’s your concern, which is good, then you won’t find better work standards than USA or Canada or England etc
@@justinitsthatguyme010 I agree but I'm also realistic in that not all things can be found made in those places especially for an affordable price. I've been trying to replace more and more of my stuff over time with those options but some stuff it's cost prohibitive for myself for now.
The connected workwear for the augmented worker. Truly forward thinking.
Missing the leather content
I see Carl Murawski in my feed and I click
By the way, have you ever considered checking out some products from Wonderlooper? A bunch of them seem super interesting, would love to hear your input on them!
Priced its self out of common man use i say
With regards to where stuff is made, I just like to avoid anything made in China.
I totally understand
This vest will be very nice for the Carhart workers they laid off for refusing to be part of medical experiments.
I have an old wool vest that prolly does a better job.
Friends don’t let friends buy Carhartt.
Some of their cheaper stuff like their beanies are good to get on sale
“top of mind”
carhartt is WOKE, Don’t need em 😂😂😊
