We’re in contract negotiations and it seems most people I’ve been working with don’t even understand what that means. I can forgive the new hires but the ones on property for a few years???

Then looking under the Uniforms tab on PFC under Required Uniform Items, you'll see Winter Parka. So maybe linking those two policies together led to the CA saying something?
Let's be honest, wearing only the company issued parka liner doesn't look good as it's supposed to be just a liner.
However, the Karbon jacket is made to be worn as a liner only, outer shell only, or both together. Is the Karbon liner only the one in question here or the company issued parka?

Ah, I see what you are saying. Looking at FOM 2.55, it states "The uniform will be worn in it's entirety whenever in the public eye or Company areas, except for the crew member lounges or aircraft."
Then looking under the Uniforms tab on PFC under Required Uniform Items, you'll see Winter Parka. So maybe linking those two policies together led to the CA saying something?

the parka liner looks far better than the full parka to a lot of guys, hence the issue here.
Also the point still stands that there is no published company guidance available to newhires that says “karbon liner good, parka liner bad” besides some mythical FCIF that may have been distributed years ago that newhires don’t have access to.

Yea I definitely see the confusion from both sides. One would have thought FOM 73 would have been a good place to incorporate an updated uniform policy addressing this subject.
As Purple said, we have bigger fish to fry. So I don't understand the hang-up this person had with the uniform.
