Americans uniforms have always sucked, and this new one sucks too. Love the blazer/leather jacket combo they will be endorsing crews to wear as well. Real "uniformity" they're gonna have going.

It's nice to see the leather jacket will be available again. You couldn't get one in recent times, so I ordered one of the overcoats. It was promptly returned, what a piece. I'd rather freeze to death, as they are way too long and a pain to carry around. Besides, with the double-breasted blazer look, I'll have twice the buttons to have sewn back on every other month. Thank you AAG.

I know what you are talking about. Protip: use fishing line with a proper knot instead of thread and they will never come off again.You're welcome

Or go to a tailor and have them do it professionally for $1/button like mine does. M&H quality sucks.

. Who cares what the uniform looks like when 75% of the people are either obese, can't tie a tie, or have a shirt that looks like it's never been pressed and fits like a hefty bag.
Busted...

Hope they don't expect any of the crews to pay anything out of pocket for that crap

While I hate to say it, FB brings up a good point as well.
You would rather fly for Virgin because of their "smart" uniform rather then United, American or Delta? This place never ceases to amaze.

Nobody said anything close to that. I'm only contrasting American's new mundane, dreary, grey uniforms to a much more vibrant, enticing alternative.

I'm fine with boring paint/uniform, good pay and a profitable company.
