New Rain Defender Hoodie Quality?
Like their "heavyweight" shirts, Carhartt downgraded the quality of the "heavyweight" Rain Defender hoodies. They are now lighter weight despite now having a looser fit (and thus using more material) than the Rain Defender hoodies produced in 2020 and before. More on reddit.com

Question about Carhartt Heavyweight Pullover Hoodie Sweatshirt (Paxton / Rain Defender)
I find the neck hole to be too small on the 100615 sweatshirt as well. Nearly all of the crewneck or hooded sweatshirts seem to be that way. You could try one of the older 1/4 zip styles, or the 100617 1/4 zip . The neck opening will be slightly smaller in a Medium. Shrinkage should not be more than 2-4% over the life of the garment--if you follow the care instructions. If you wash cold and hang dry, shrinkage will be less than 2%. Shrinkage is always more noticeable in length than width. Hoodies are sized by chest, not height or weight. You state your chest size is 42". A size Medium hoodie is cut to accommodate chest sizes 38-40." A Medium will be too small. More on reddit.com

Thoughts on Carhartt Rain Defender Thermal Lined Sweatshirt?
I have 2. Wear them more than any other outerwear in winter. No holes or problems and they’re warm. Not sure if the Rain Defender stays on after a few washes. More on reddit.com

Rain defender hoodies, run big or true to size?
The heavyweight zip hoodies are seriously too hot unless it's near freezing. I don't think they make the midweight zips anymore. I only have 2 old ones. They are on the bigger size. Meant for layering. More on reddit.com

r/Carhartt on Reddit: Question about Carhartt Heavyweight Pullover Hoodie Sweatshirt (Paxton / Rain Defender)
July 16, 2025 -

I recently picked up the heavyweight Carhartt pullover hoodie (formerly known as the Paxton / Rain Defender) in a size Large, which is usually my true-to-size in most clothing. I'm 162 lbs with a 42" chest.

The fit is slightly oversized, which I could live with, but the length after the kangaroo pocket feels a bit too long and floppy. My main concern is with the neck hole, even in the Large, it feels somewhat snug, so I'm hesitant to size down to a Medium in case the neck becomes too tight.

If anyone has experience with this hoodie:

Does it shrink after washing/drying (especially in length)?

Does the neck opening loosen up with wear or shrink even more?

Would you recommend staying with the Large or trying a Medium?

For reference, a Large fits me perfectly in the Carhartt lined Detroit jacket.

Thanks for any insight!
