And in that case, as long as they are dress black pants, is it ok to buy other brands, or would the pants need to be ordered only through A cut above?
I was able to buy two pairs of pants and three shirts along with the other needed items on the initial allowance. I did buy 2 additional pants and an extra shirt on my own so I had a complete set of 4 uniforms. My initial set has held up really well, but I like to have spares...
You'll have to buy the pants from A Cut Above because they are a special design that has a brown pinstripe in them. They aren't plain black. I wish I could have carried over the pants I wore when I was flying on the 121 side before coming here, but not to be.
