so they can't afford a $75 pilot overcoat from a vendor or Coat's Warehouse, but have no problem dishing out $200 for a $50 fleece jacket whose price is jacked up simply because it says "The North Face" on it? Sounds like some people are still in high school and only buy the best to fit in with the "in" crowd! I think my favorite was the -900 FO who was wearing a black Under Armor hoodie at the gate podium, hood up, with the giant white UA logo, and sunglasses on while looking at the release for 20 minutes at night. Looked like the Unibomber.
