Yep, I didn't even bother buying them when I got hired

..and yes, I understand you will never get the 'perfect' fit without having them tailored. However, I have found as close of a perfect fit with some non-tailored slacks store-bought.
That's your fault for ordering the "old man pleated version". They did offer you the pants withtout the pleats!

All I was saying was this, not everybody is built the same way. You might have to get some sort of tailoring done. If you want to argue about quality, you have something to complain about. The fit however is standard... every company has a different cut and every person has a different size!

How is M&H crap quality? Is it because you put wool in the washer/dryer and it falls apart?

^^^^^^Read from everyone above. I have never washed my pants/blazer in a washing machine (just dry cleaning) and the fabric still falls apart, mainly the thread. Doesn't matter because it seems like maybe you are the heir to the M&H empire and can not stand anyone to bad talk them.

Talk about "worthy efforts," you are defending a airline uniform supplier that sells $70 slacks that 95% of the people hate.

Once again its only Colgan people complaining. Maybe it has something to do with sweating your balls off all day in the weed whacker. Wool doesn't like moisture.

$70? 9E uniform pants are $55. I've had my blazer for 5 years still looks brand new.

And if M&H doesn't meet your standards, who would you recommend?

Any brand without an M or a H....

Belk is having a clearance, got 150 dollar pair of slacks for 40. Puts mangled & homeless to shame.

B00sted, maybe colgan did pick the lowest quality they have, some of the airlines you say use M&H do look better than ours. The pants used to be $69. the website is now showing 57.50. add tax and shipping and it comes to $70.95. Then go get them hemmed for 10-20 and you have 80-90 dollar pants that are NOT wool, are hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and looked bad even though I dry cleaned them all the time and took really good care of them. On the other hand with a little looking I can find department store pants for $40 with lots of different fits so they look better on me, can be washed at home, ironed and spray starched and look great.

+1 for the M&H short sleeve shirts though. Long tails so they stay tucked and great material that washes and presses well.

Cuz only us Colgan guys appreciate good uniforms and looking professional. Oh wait I must not look professional with my pants I bought from Macy's. I mean who would buy clothes from a Macy's it must be some new discount store.

I think I can count in one hand the amount of guys I've flown with here at xj who wear their M&H pants. It's just pure crap, and everyone knows it.

I got some pants from M&H last year and I like them a lot. They seem better than the ones I bought 5 yrs ago.
