About this deal

Just like the Carhartt J140 vs J131 we discussed above, there are a lot of differences between the Carhartt J130 vs J131. Not only do they have different outer-shells, they are also built for different climates. Here’s what you need to know: Lining – This is where the major difference exists between the Carhartt J140 vs J131. The J140 has the quilted-flannel lining, which is Carhartt’s second warmest lining. The J131 has a thermal-fleece lining, which is one of Carhartt’s lightest linings. The J140 is built for cold-weather climates and the J131 is built for mild-winter climates. Quilted nylon lining for easy on and off; 80g 3M™ Thinsulate™ featherless insulation for warmth without the weight

Update – As of 2021, Carhartt has replaced the J130 with an updated version which is style 104050. Just like the J130, this new version uses a pre-washed shell so that the canvas has more of a broken-in feeling on the first wear. But there are also some differences. To read more about this updated version, and how it compares to the J130, visit my article that compares the J130 vs 104050.When you think of Wrangler, you think of denim, specifically jeans. Wrangler does also have a wide range of outerwear, including the Wrangler RIGGS collection which is a specific type of outerwear geared towards workers. Now, even though the difference is simply the outer-shell fabric, that difference has several implications. Here are the main differences you need to consider when comparing Carhartt J140 vs J130: Again, I actually wear the J140 the most (firm shell) and the firm outer-shell doesn’t bother me, but you will need to decide if you’d rather have the firm shell, or the pre-washed Sandstone shell. Carhartt outerwear from Ruff n Tuff is world renowned for build quality and highly durable fabrics and always has been. Nothing will keep you protected from the elements like a Carhartt coat. Stay warm, dry and comfortable in fair or foul weather. But even though the designs are similar, there are also some significant differences. The outer shell is different, the inner lining is different, and the sleeves are different. Let’s discuss these one by one. Outer Shell Difference

Step 3: Decide if there are any type of extra features you will need to help you get the job done (full-swing, flame-resistant, wind-resistance, etc). Here are Carhartt’s available linings, and my personal opinion on how they rank from mild warmth to warmest. Just for reference, I would consider the thermal lining something I’d wear on a mild winter day: Carhartt LiningThat said, there are other brands that also make quality and dependable outerwear, and depending on your budget and specific needs, some of these brands might make more sense. Just like Carhartt has a wide range of linings, they also offer a wide range of outer shell fabrics so that you can find one that is tough enough to handle what you are going to throw at it, but also has the comfort and flexibility you are looking for.

Wind Fighter, Rain Defender, & Storm Defender Technology– Worried about the elements? These three types of Carhartt Technologies help defend you against wind and precipitation. Rain Defender is for light precipitation, and the Storm Defender is for heavier precipitation. In my experience the Sandstone shell still has provided a small bit of water protection (but again, officially, it is not certified water-repellent). I live in Kansas and although we don’t experience the extreme winters common to the northern parts of the US, we do get some dangerously cold winter days.
