Regular detergents such as Tide rely on optical brighteners to help clothes look clean. However, for wool blend garments, a gentler detergent like Woolite is the way to go. Use that in a cold water cycle, hang up your pants to dry, and you’re good to go.

There is a crew news on October 17. That might be a good place to voice your displeasure of the new uniform or ask about a possible second uniform option (in addition to M&H). Emailed questions must be submitted by October 12.

So....everyone but pilots get 6 months of field testing on their clothes. Those of which are much higher quality Lands End but we get stuck with this M&H junk. Seems par for the course.

Is there a full zipper sweater option anywhere or is it just buttons and pull overs? A Cut Above looks nice, but I get hot easily and want something I can easily take on and off. I thought I saw something that said Twin Hill offered a full zipper option, but I no longer have access and their public page didn’t show pilot stuff.

I can't speak to if you're able to purchase it anymore, but I can say that zipper breaks down and it becomes some garbage.

Zipper definitely goes to crap in a hurry, which is ridiculous for what that sweater costs.

Yep zipper lasts about 3 months of being used nearly every day.
