If your not on the 777 with Hong-Kong Layovers, then Tarpy Tailors at LAX on Sepulveda is the place (across from In-N-Out). The shop tailors/makes the uniform custom.....so fat/skinny/short/tall...you actually get something that looks good/fits right. Will you pay more than Cintas, or some other POS vendor's weak China quality?? SURE. But I will attest that they last much longer than any other cut-rate company sponsored supplier.

They have a LONG history with CAL as they used to be the uniform vendor under the Bob Six era.......I'm sure they'll continue to make whatever new uniform the "New" UAL decides to matriculate.

Hands down the BEST if your looking for a product with solid quality/long lasting wear in mind. Don't know if they will still do it, but the "old man" who used to be there would come to your hotel/airport and pick you up and take you to the shop for measurement/order while on LAX layovers....may still do that through the new owner??

$.02 cents....

BTW....how bout that video???
