He’s a Carhartt man (with a Carhartt giveaway)

Filed Under: Uncategorized 6 Comments

I married a corporate ladder climbing, fine suit wearing man. Then he dove off the corporate wheel. The fine suits and ties would no longer do for work attire. He asked me to buy him some “work clothes” when we relocated to his hometown and he started working alongside his father in their family owned and operated lumber yard and general contracting business.
It was July 2007. I promptly went online to order him his first five pairs of Carhartt pants. Through the past five plus years, Nathan has had his share of Carhartt pants, shirts and jackets. But recently Carhartt sent us what has become Nathan’s favorite Carhartt item. It’s the Carhartt Shoreline jacket, new for 2012.

The light jacket has been perfect on cool mornings for work outside in the alley of the lumberyard.

It cuts the wicked wind of the North Dakota prairie and is waterproof. It is flexible and allows him to do his daily routine of work.

Nathan tends to always be warm. He was meant to live and work outside. But when I am shopping for him he reminds me he wants to maintain a professional look.

This jacket is a perfect solution. He commented to me that the Carhartt Shoreline jacket needs our business logo on it. He wants to order 50 of them for our contractors.

For now, it’s just Nathan loving his new Carhartt jacket. But I think the guys around the yard have noticed.

 They might all be getting Carhartt Shoreline jackets themselves this year as gift from Nathan.

 Why the smile after a long day of work? Nathan has summer plans for his Carhartt jacket.

He can’t always work and hopes to wear it during early morning weekend fishing trips through the rain and cool temperatures. 
Have a Carhartt loving man you know? Hop over to The Real Farmwives of America today for a Carhartt giveaway.
Thank you to Carhartt for sending us this free product. As always, my photos and opinions are my own. Actually today the opinion’s come directly from my husband. 
Thank you also to Nathan, my non-social media husband who allowed me to sneak around the working men at the lumberyard to snap pictures of him wearing his new Carhartt jacket (with out embarrassing him.) I think he has been sold on reviewing free products he loves and is hoping for more of these blog posts!

    Ahem…not all Carhartt’s are worn by men ya know! LOL I’m a Carhartt girl myself and that jacket looks like it might just be the ticket (hey I find that the guys stuff usually has more pockets). Wonderful pictures althought that almost looked like a photo “evil eye” in one. You’ve got a keeper there (and the hubby too)!

    Best part of that jacket is that they make a female version as well! Yay for carhartt women’s line…all styles of jeans & shirts!

    Nice coat! I could use a nice spring/fall coat like this. I got dri-duck jackets for my customers last year, which I love to wear at events…this would make a nice professional work in the yard jacket.

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
