Nope.
You can, however, have alterations and tailoring reimbursed.

It's a joke. They want us to wear that crap, then so be it.

No one outside the company knows the uniform situation at JB. I don't know the uniform situation at Delta, AA, etc, but when I see one of their pilots clearly lacking any self-respect looking sloppy with an ill-fitting uniform I am embarrassed for them and for the profession.
JB isn't a regional airline. Having a regional airline mentality doesn't bode well for contract gains in the future.
