    Carhartts website has a “chat” option. I informed them I’d be using other brands since their decision makers obviously lost touch with their customer base. As someone who wears pretty much all carhartt when working outdoors, this kinda sucks... but there are other options that don’t force their personal agendas on people working for them. **** em.

    Thanks for the heads up. My opinion has been expressed to them.

    What we do is important to ourselves. It's just like not patronizing businesses that put up "No guns allowed" signs.

    We are too few though to make a meaningful impact and they look at what they believe is the greater good.

    And we may end up either not being able to obtain what we need as more companies follow suit or we will have to acquiesce.

    I don't own any Carhartt but I have looked at it before. I'll pass now but for me it's easy. Some of you folks in farming and/or construction will have a harder time as I suspect the product is well made and suited for that type of work.

    I respectfully disagree. Those of us who speak up to wussy corporations are disproportionately experienced by those corporations. That's how the lefties were initially able to influence them. They were loud and persistent, and punched way above their weight.

    My old stained Carhartt ear flap cap needs replaced but I can't find one. I don't think they make them anymore.

    You must be looking the wrong places. Found this cap at Tractor Supply.

    Also sent my message to Carhartt this morning.

    First Time Customer // Last Time Customer

    I was disappointed to hear that following the Supreme Court decision that OSHA did not have broad authority to require a vaccine that Carhartt chose to punish their employees anyways. While their may be an ongoing medical debate about the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of the vaccine the decision that Carhartt made is clearly a political statement. Instead of being focused on producing a quality product that has served millions of American workers for decades your company decided to dive into the political cesspool and show your Wokeness.

    Your post seems to assume neutrality in the corporate suite, it is not neutral by any stretch of the imagination, the tactic worked for the left because there was kindred thinking in the corporate suites. We don’t have that to help us. Their own employees either agree or lack numbers to stop this but a few INGO folks are really going to make a difference?

    I hope you don’t mind but o copied your response and made a few changes then submit to their Chat Now function.


    The response was quick and she said they were reviewing all chat transcripts with the “team”. Seems like that’s all she’s been answering for a few days

    We are often too quick to either justify our own lack of will to boycott or poo poo those that do as insignificant. :nono: :nono: :nono:

    When was the last time you heard a knowledgeable gun owner speak of their Levi's, or their Yeti cooler, or shopping at Dick's?

    While not yet out of business, you can be assured they are at the very least aware of the absence of our dollars.

    This is my go to brand like Redwings have protected my feet for years Carhart has braced me from the elements. All my Tee shirts and sweatshirts are from them as well as my heavy cold weather gear. My sock hats and scarves as well. CKW has a butt load of their gear as well and my daughter and SIL hope they get some for Christmas. Yup they both got Hoodies.
    Davis in Mooresville are my peoples.
    I didn't know they made lingerie as well :D

    Cant find the chat function (may have been disabled) but left them a message on Facebook. The only way we can force a change is to hit them in the bank account.
