Love Carhartt products & as expected, this vest has that quality. I was lucky to find it on sale here & took a chance on the color (crabapple), which is nicer in reality than pictured. I normally buy the men's version (even though I'm a woman) because I'd read about the cut of the vest at the hips being weird (cut with a flare)... unfortunately, that's true! haha... still worth it
