Great, there's a Men's Warehouse about 10 miles away. I will go by there tomorrow. Thanks.

Word to the wise E36, try to not jump down people's throats when posting on Web-boards and the like when you work for Colgan as you are a target and only glorifying their outrage by responding and responding in Naivete....

Unless youcan find an EXACT match, stick to the uniform supplier. Don't be that guy wearing the navy Dockers.

Respect the uniform. Wear it proudly.

Have fun on IOE.

Oh and shy away from the leather- not cool at all.

M&H is crap. The jackets are very poorly cut. I'll take pride in my work...but the uniform? HA!

Keep it simple and order from the same crappy outfit everyone else orders from.

Get a hold of a Piedmont F/A uniform order form. They used to have them in SYR. The colors are the same and they come from Cintas. Cheaper and better stuff.

Take pride in how you look in the uniform. Iron the shirts and pants. Get the jacket dry-cleaned. (tax deductible)

I never said MH was great and I do agree their tailors can't measure, but it is important that we all look equally crappy.

Maybe we will be going to the Gold/Black as well with Mesaba. Black pants are much easier to find.

Okay. Maybe I came across harsh and abrasive, but it disheartens me to see crews that don't match.

The leather jacket is my opinion only. Do not take it personally anyone. I just want people to take enough pride in their uniform to wear it professionally.

Cruise- you are not "that guy" buy you know the types I'm talking about.
