I put this on the 'alternative to Carhartt' thread but added it here in case anyone else is interested. This is normally priced at $90. Clearance price on their website is $27, free shipping. Imported but supposedly not from China. Dickies is an old reputable brand found in many farm stores. It has odd looking cuffs, though. DICKIES COAT

Just pulled the trigger. Could not pass up- very cool of you Rockchuck.

Thanks! Ordered one. Can use a better snow blowing/cold weather boating coat. I like Dickies clothes. With their pants, I can point to the label and say "Kiss my Dickies."
Even better, I just got my Christmas season book royalty check, so it was free!

You guys realize Dickies is way more woke than Carhart, right?

This is a side thread from the Carhartt thread where everybody wants to dump Carhartt for "another brand". That isn't helping anybody. From Dickies on webpage: https://www.dickies.com/faqs.html

I'd like to support conservative companies. However, our local Walmart is in a metal building and my phone loses internet service when inside. When I'm buying a 6 pack of skivvies, I don't have time to run outside to get service to check a website for a politcal statement for each item I buy.

Why would you be mad at Carhartt for politics, then suggest a company who you don't know theirs? Common sense, man! "Carhartt is a bunch of commies, buy from these commies instead!" If you're going to suggest an alternative, you have an obligation to do your research. You obviously had internet signal when you posted the suggestion!

I don't recall me saying Carhartt was a bunch of commies. That would be saying more than I know.

Agree with you, RC.
Instead of this "Boycott them!" litany, I want somebody here to post a complete list of companies that do not sell products made overseas, or made by corrupt unions, or ever supported a liberal cause. I suspect it'd be a damn short list, but I'd welcome seeing it.

I don't see coats on there at all. $30 for a t-shirt? $128 for a pair of jeans? Not a chance.

I'll reserve it's use to keeping warm while sniping commies.

I don't need another jacket but if they are going to damn near give them away I'm in. Thanks Rock Chuck.
Told my boy to order one and told him to tell his step dad too.
