FAQs
Are these overalls waterproof?
No, these overalls are made from 100% cotton duck fabric, which offers some water resistance but is not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry or lightly wet conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Carhartt, usually based on your regular waist and inseam measurements. The 'Relaxed Fit' offers extra room, so consider your preferred fit.
Can I wear knee pads with these overalls?
Yes, the overalls feature double front reinforced kneepad pockets with cleanout openings specifically designed to accommodate knee pads for added protection.
How durable are the kick panels?
The kick panels are reinforced for enhanced durability and resistance to abrasion, designed to withstand wear from boots and rough environments.
How should I care for the duck fabric?
Machine wash cold with like colors, tumble dry low, or hang dry. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat, which can degrade the fabric's strength and integrity.
What is the main difference between this and the R01 model?
This model is an updated take on the popular R01, incorporating feedback for improved features like added stretch around the waist and reinforced kick panels, while maintaining the core heavyweight duck construction and relaxed fit.
Are these overalls suitable for hot weather?
While made of 100% cotton, the heavyweight fabric can be warm. The relaxed fit does allow for some air circulation, but they are best suited for moderate to cool weather or for tasks where durability is prioritized over breathability.
Troubleshooting
Straps do not stay adjusted.
Ensure the buckle mechanism is properly engaged. Some initial stiffness in the straps may require a break-in period. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the suspender hardware.
Fabric feels stiff.
This is normal for new, heavyweight duck fabric. Wash and dry the overalls according to care instructions. Wearing and moving in them will also help break in the material over time.
Pockets seem too tight for tools.
The pockets are designed for specific tools. Ensure you are using the intended pockets (e.g., ruler pocket for rulers, tool pocket for smaller hand tools). The fabric will loosen slightly with use.
Color transfer to other garments.
Wash the overalls separately or with similar dark colors, especially during the first few washes. Use cold water and consider a color-catching sheet if concerned.
