Did Southwest replace the leather jacket with this or is this just another option?

Why revive a dead thread? Start a new one if it impacts you.

Why take the time to respond but not answer the question?

The karbon jacket is an option in addition to the leather jacket. I think the leather jacket looks a lot better, but the karbon is more practical since it can be folded/stuffed into a suitcase much more easily.

I've noticed a sharp decline in the popularity of the Karbon jacket the last few months.

I have seen a sharp increase in the popularity of swimming suits during the same period. At this rate of increase, wearing of swim suits in the northeast will be at an all time record by, say, January.

Wait, are you saying Karbon makes swimsuits?

Be a nice alternative to my leather one.

You wear a leather swim suit? Remind me not to fly with you.

Bingo..... I actually wear a jacket about half a dozen times per year. The rest of the time, I end up carrying it around. The Metrosexual Wetsuit Jacket will fit in the roller bag, even if there's no more room in it. Try that with the side of cow or London Fog. :eek:

I just wish they'd make the MWJ in human sizes. The reptilian alien cut is a bit awkward to wear. At least the 8" too long sleeves keep my hands nice and toasty.

Thanks for the info.

I got the new one, I think it looks ok enough to use on a overnight ha
