Uh-huh.

Look, I’m all for a ‘great’ professional image, but M&H ain’t it. And you can have a good looking leather jacket that doesn’t scream “I got my gang colors from the Honda Mild Ones” - or even the SWA option for an all weather coat...

I’m a minimalist and don’t want to take over coats and trench coats AND a jacket with me every trip because I have no idea where I get reassigned. I’m not wearing uniform items when I’m on my layover either, so I’d like some room in my suitcase for real clothes.

The FA’s have ensemble items for outer wear why don’t we? They are in front of the pax wAAy more than we are.

The company didn't want the trash M&H. They choose twin hill. The unions freaked out and went ballistic over clothing that to their own admission met the Okeo standard that M&H and Lands End will supposedly meet too.

Cheap materials and cheap clothes look cheap. I’d be all for a nice coat or leather jacket of some kind as long as it didn’t fit and look like crap.
I think the twin hill jackets, especially the overcoat/trenchoat, are higher end.

The leather jacket they had was really nice too but the vast majority of overweight guys made fun of it calling it "metrosexual".

Does your paycheck say American or DoD? Do we wear flight suits too?

Yes your thinking is skewed.

Now with the cold months upon us there is plenty of pilots in leather jackets in ORD
That’s true. I’m sure a jacket is a necessity in ORD!

That motorcycle jacket was sweet. Too bad all the fats were jealous they wouldn’t be able to wear it

It was pleather and was never approved for use after the trial.

Yes I know, I wore it...

I couldn't tell if it was pleather or not. Either way it was nice.

You made an incorrect assumption that I care what your uniform is.
