I need to wash my Carhartt jacket and coveralls, but hate to since they never seem to keep me as warm once I do it. Any ideas? Would scotch guard help? :roll:

I don't have any ideas on how to make them warmer,but I have found that Walls brand outerwear is alot warmer and about 2/3 the price of Carharts. I have a Carhart hooded jacket for chores and a Walls jacket for going to town and there is no comparison. The Walls has much more insulation and is just as tough .

Pitch the pants and get a pair of wool pants. May not win any fashion awards but you will stay warmer and they last two or three times longer than Carharts.

wear Key brand..and i wash em only about twice a year..(that sounds terrible) so I can't really say that they aren't as warm after being washed...I NEVER put em in the dryer though...I'm gonna look into those cuddleduds though..they sound pretty good! Actually I have a one of those coats from Cabella's that is windproof and repels water...I wear that over my coveralls on the really bad days...that's what really keeps me warm..love that coat.[b

Under Armour Cold Gear is the cats meow-when it's real cold and were calling coyotes you can wear it under Helly Hanson's and toast. It is a bit hard to get used too as it fits skin tight but it works.

Had a little extra jingle one fall so as going to upgrade some outerwear to Carhartt. Got to the city and said heck with it bought Filson instead. Warm wears like iron. Oh as for wool pants buy most mine at Army surplus, got weights from lite to gee is it really -40 heavy

Nope nothing shrunk here-wool is the best because it keeps you warm even when wet-I wear big heavy wool socks and rubber overshoes all winter-nice and light to hunt in.
