You probably had the tropical weight one. Much better IMHO. Was told AA didn’t allow the option.

It’s cool though, at least all the angry TwinHill folks are satisfied. Sent an email to union today complaining of a rash and skin irritation cause by M&H. Let’s see how long it takes for them to respond. Overall I’ve heard more people complaining about M&H then TwinHill. Not sure how it’s fair to FORCE people to wear a uniform that they don’t find comfortable and also irritating.....while placating a few who had reactions to TwinHill.

Apparently it’s okay for us to be uncomfortable for 13-14 hours, just as long as the company is not under the duress of a lawsuit. And BTW......still wearing my TwinHill uniform because my M&H blew and it all had to be sent back.

Haven’t had a single person complain around me that I am killing them with chemicals. Just saying.

So everyone gets to be uncomfortable, some irritated, but at least a TwinHill class action is off the table right?

Personally I won’t ever wear the M&H crap pants or shirts. The whole new uniform from M&H looks like the material and mass production tailoring of a cheap KMart kids suit....that had to be bought last minute for a funeral

In the olden days you used to be able to go to any number tailoring outfits and have a uniform made according to employer requirements. Tally-Ho comes to mind, (maybe they are out of business. ) I always had bi-swing back and Snoopy linings, hold the vent. (DAL) There must be a way out of that mess.

I’ve always worn shirts of my own choosing. The TH shirts were ridiculous, and the MH only slightly better.
Agreed, TH was the first airline uniform that I ever had that actually fit like a suit is suppose too...sorry guys but suit pants aren’t suppose to fit like a pair of wind breakers from 1993.

Couldn't have said it better...

With that said, can one get away with wearing the TH pants during the summer months when the suit jacket isn't required?

The company says that as of March 31st, the M&H uniform will be the ONLY authorized uniform. I'd say no.

I was thinking the same thing. M&H are gonna be hot and unbreathable. Watch out for the pants police
