Review on Quality and Style Combined: Carhartt Boys' Hooded Long Sleeve Sweatshirt by Paul Andrews

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Stretches and Shrinks

I love men's Carhartt sweatshirts, so I decided it was time to get my son a Carhartt hoodie. My son usually wears 14/16 on all other hoodie brands and is starting to wear 18/20 on some brands. With that said I ordered him 18/20 and if he was a bit big he might grow into him. However the size 18/20 was HUGE so we changed it to the large size 14/16 but it was also too big. So we traded it in for a 10/12, which was fine after trying it on. He wouldn't grow from this, but it would work for a few months. But when we washed it according to the directions, it started shrinking by 2 sizes! Having tried 3 sizes now we are stuck on one that is too small. I've lived at Carhartt long enough to order a size up now, and if it matters, it should be right. So remember that if it looks big at first, it gets WAY smaller! The quality and comfort seems to be what I would expect from Carhartt, but the sizing and fit are no different than men's sizing.
