They’re local to me so I’ve gone in to exchange items before, but I’d have to agree the quality isn’t what it was 3-4 years ago. Still the best fitting shirts though.


Not good. I don’t want to wear anything else.

If so, do I still have to go through the uniform department or can I buy directly on their website. If website, do I choose the navy pants and are there any other considerations?

M&H is fine, but you will definitely need to get the shirts and maybe the pants altered. I looked like the pilsbury doughboy in uniform until I had the shirts taken in. I have an 18 1/4 inch neck and those shirts ballooned out something massive. Once I got them taken in, the shirts were more then fine.


With that said, after my year anniversary I did get a cut and above. Although not as baggy, I still had to get them taken in a little.

But they’re still the best that I’ve found.

What material would you recommend, Cirrus or Tropo?

I’ve always gotten Cirrus. I don’t think Tropo is available in my fat kid size.

I like the fabric of the M&H shirts... I iron my shirts and ACA are not what there were from a few years ago, but ACA pants beat M&H hands down.
You can give either vendor’s fabric and quality of construction a “feel-up” at the training center...
Either way, find a tailor and price out tuning up a pair of pants vs a shirt...

Has anybody bought the Acutabove pants?

Would like to know if the “navy” color matches the M&H company pants and if they fit true to size in the waist?

Thanks

A Cut Above is an authorized company uniform... you can even order it through the Uniform department... so yes it’s the proper navy..
