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

July 16, 2025Rain defender quarter zip
I have the Rain Defender Loose Fit Heavyweight Quarter-Zip sweatshirt without the hood, which has been discontinued. I’ve worn it for construction work for five winters and it’s been washed countless times. Surprisingly, light rain still beads on the surface of the sweatshirt. I’ve had very few issues with the zipper touching or rubbing on my neck, but I usually have the zipper either all the way down or all the way up. I don’t know if Carhartt ever puts them on sale, but Black Friday and Cyber Monday would be the time if it ever does. They do have discounts for first responders, military, and nursing staff though.

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!

I have the this hoodie in a large tall. After washing it a 4 or 5 times I would say it doesn't shrink I am 5 ft 11 and 178 lbs. It is a little loose but I usually wear a few layers under it. It has not faded or lost its shape either. Hope this helps.
