I'm sorry but I don't believe Spirit and Southwest are our peers here. And FedEx doesn't fly people, so irrelevant.

Does Delta have a leather jacket?
You can’t possibly think that the trash bag-esque all-weather jacket and the hideous trench coat are any more professional than a leather jacket?

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.

Ahhhhhhhahahahahaha, ok. That’s why we “chose” M&H plastic lined burlap over Brooks Bros.

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.

Southwest still has leather jacket as well as Karbon synthetic (one of those either hate it or love it deals)

Thanks! I haven’t seen a leather jacket at an airport in a while so that’s why I asked. The Karbon doesn’t look bad in the pictures but I can see why some hate it.

I think the leather jacket goes great with the pilot image. But I did grow up around the Air Force where every pilot wore a leather jacket so my thinking might be skewed.

This! In my opinion, a leather jacket that fits nice looks professional.

I haven't either, but then it was summertime up until recently.
Now with the cold months upon us there is plenty of pilots in leather jackets in ORD
