Carhartt Yukon Extremes Gear: Where Work and Winter Collide

Known for its rugged workwear, Carhartt created a new line to tackle the extreme cold. The Yukon Extremes line is made to keep you warm while you get things done outdoors this winter.

Carhartt’s latest apparel line, Yukon Extremes, uses Thinsulate insulation, reinforced shell fabrics, and weatherproofing to offer new cold-weather performance for the brand.

The brand’s first Yukon collection came 25 years ago. And this new Extremes line incorporates recent outwear technologies to make the jackets, bibs, and fleece lighter and more flexible without sacrificing durability. Additionally, this marks the first time the collection extends to women’s wear, and it introduces new fleece offerings.

Carhartt said it designed the Yukon Extremes line to perform in ultracold conditions without bogging you down. In keeping with the brand’s focus on durability, the abrasion-resistant nylons are assembled with triple-stitched main seams. So, if you expect to go to battle with the deep winter cold this season, you’ll want to be prepared.

Meet the Gear

In case you’re not familiar with the Carhartt Yukon Extremes line, we’ve highlighted a few of the key pieces from the brand to consider before the temperatures take a dive and winter is here to stay.

The Biberalls have double-layered knees (including an opening for Carhartt’s knee pads) and ankle-to-thigh zippers with snap-shut storm flaps. There’s a zipper up the front, and its elastic suspenders let you adjust the fit with the low-profile buckles.

Passed down from its workwear is the plethora of pockets: Ledge hand pockets, front cargo pockets, back pockets, larger utility pockets, and even a hammer loop.
