Full details
The Ariat Rebar Workman DuraCanvas Hoodie is designed for adult males needing durable, functional outerwear for demanding tasks. Its key benefit is the combination of water-repellent fleece with abrasion-resistant DuraCanvas™ reinforcements, offering exceptional strength, stretch, and comfort.

FAQs
What is DuraCanvas™ fabric?
DuraCanvas™ is a proprietary fabric used by Ariat designed for exceptional abrasion resistance and durability, often used in workwear to reinforce high-wear areas.
Is this hoodie suitable for very cold weather?
The hoodie is made of 10 oz fleece and is water-repellent, making it suitable for mild to cool conditions. For extreme cold, it is best used as a mid-layer over insulating base layers.
How does the fit compare to a standard hoodie?
The Rebar Workman DuraCanvas Hoodie is designed with a work fit, which may be slightly more generous or tailored for movement during physical tasks compared to a casual hoodie.
Can I wash and dry this hoodie?
Yes, it is machine washable and can be tumble dried on low heat. Refer to the care instructions for detailed guidance.
Will the reinforced areas make the hoodie uncomfortable?
The DuraCanvas™ fabric is engineered to be strong yet flexible, and the reinforcements are placed strategically to enhance durability without compromising comfort during normal wear and movement.
How do I maintain the water-repellent feature?
The initial water repellency is part of the fabric treatment. While it naturally diminishes with wear and washing, using fabric-specific water repellent sprays can help restore its performance.
Troubleshooting
Hoodie feels stiff after washing.
This is likely due to the DuraCanvas™ material. Continue to wear and move in it; the fabric will soften with use and further washes. Avoid harsh detergents.
Water repellency is decreasing.
The water-repellent treatment may wear off over time. Consider using a fabric-specific water repellent spray designed for outdoor gear to restore its performance.
Zipper is sticking.
Ensure there are no fabric snags in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper and try zipping again. You can also use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax to lubricate the teeth.
