Ive actually spoken to them. they can do blue shirts very easily they just need a big enough initial order or even better for our uniform people to just make them an approved vendor and they'll start makimg them. of course my mention of this to our uniform people fell on deaf ears.
i really wish we had real uniforms. had better quality at colgan

Guys. People have been pushing this ball up the hill for years. Over a decade. Flt ops doesn't own the uniform. Marketing does. You're a commercial.
Better solutions have been floated so many times your head will spin, only to be shot down, ignored, or just told no one cares.
Hope you have better luck

I will NEVER pay for alterations for a mandatory company uniform.
It's bad enough that they make us wear these metro-sexual clown outfits. Since we already look like clowns I really do not care if my uniform doesn't fit.
I'll wear what they tell me to wear, but I will not pay to have it fit better. That's the company's responsibility, not mine.

I feel better when I wear better fitting clothes and don't look like a slob. Why comb your hair then, or even iron? The company doesn't even pay for black shoes, or good luggage, both are required.
I take the out-of-the-box Van Heusens, and my tailor tapers the sides from sleeve tip to bottom, shortens the sleeves, creates a right pocket pen slot and it's a wayyyy better shirt. I do like 3 at a time for about $40-50, note it for taxes, and I'm good for another year or two. Easy, cheap, and worth the comfortable, useful feel.

For a company so concerned about their image, they sure don't care to spend an extra dime on the pilot uniforms.

I also had a good laugh when we got the new new shirts... or maybe it was the new new different new shirts. Anyhow, I ordered a 17" tall tapered, and it tapered out! Showed it to one of our VPs... nadda zippo nothing.
I hate looking sloppy, but I'm done spending the cost of the shirt just to get it to fit.
