I dunno about life, but my carhartt heavyweight defenders last years. They get worn to jobsites and get the shit beat out of them.
I do have one I use for weekends and I think it 3 years old. Maybe 4? It’s faded but no fringe on any of the cuffs. And the hood is nice and deep, side seems too, not one up the center.
Do you know how to do drywall mud? If so you can float it down to the crown and texture/paint it. This will work up to maybe 3/4". More than that, get some 1/4" drywall and use it as filler first. If not, and you can do running trim, re-run the crown. If the gap is not much bigger than ~3/8" you can just caulk it.
