Trying to avoid Carhartt. I will buy from them if I have to, but I'd like options. I'd like to find a made in USA, pullover because I hate broken zippers, XXLT medium heavy hoodie. Has to have Tall. What do you buy?

.
 
I prefer Gildan personally. Fruit of the Loom and Hanes have gone to shit since 2020 and the actual hoods on theirs are too small.

I'll have to look when I get home to see what the brand is, but I really like some of the KoH hoodies I've got as well. Great fit, have held up well and the hoods on them are huge but not so big they fall in front of your face.
 
What's your price range?

American-giant.com is an american company.

They charge for it too. Their stuff ddoes appear to be high quality though - I'm tempted to get a sweatshirt for my wife who's always cold. I do have their flannel, and it's nice. Really nice. I just don't know if it's worth the price nice :laughing:

Probably wouldn't spend that much. That's pretty steep for something that might not fit right. I dislike buying things online that don't fit or that shrink up in a month or so.

They do run small(ish), but my shirt hasn't shrunk, and I've had it a year, washed it a few times.
 
I use Gildan underwear and socks and plain collected shirts.

Used to use fruit of the loom and hanes and both are absolutely junk now.
 
Gildan is what I run. Some of my work hoodies are 7-10 yrs old. Usually eventually get tossed from getting well beyond hobo stage between grease stains and holes.

Have 14 socks, 7 underwear, 7 long johns, 7 shirts, 7 pants and 4 sweatshirts (double them up when it's cold).
All the same too, so no worries about matching colors or whatever.

Yeah, they're laughably bad. Last pack of Hanes shirts I bought were shockingly thin and all of them completely fell apart in a wash cycle. Like every seam came undone on them fell apart and left thread all over the place in the dryer.
 
I like Gildan and Pro club (not sure if proclub has shirts)
 
I wear Orange (what else) Gildan t-shirts and they fade quick from the sun 🌞. The backs are so pale- :laughing:

My 2017 KOH hoodie is Independent Trading Company ---> Independent Trading Company - Wholesale Quality Sweatshirts & Apparel
 
I just bought some flame resistant hoodies off cyberweld. Haven't arrived yet, but I'm kinda excited to try them out. Tired of burning up my sweatshirts welding and grinding. Every single one of them burns the pocket off and ends up with a giant hole at the upper pocket seam.

They also had Kevlar stitched gloves... I can't wait to try them out. I always burn up the stitching on my gloves. Plus they were only a bit over $3 a pair so I ordered 50 pairs. :laughing:
