Or some WW2 bomber pilot. Not professional. But i actually don't care and embraced he fact that we "aren't that airline" thus hope we get north face style jackets next go around.

The North Face looks ridiculously unprofessional. We "aren't that airline?" What does that even mean?

The truth is we're not the only ones that wear the leather jackets. AA, JB, SWA, HAL, FedEx and UPS wear it too. Ain't gonna stop me when it's 10 degrees in ORD.

Agree. I still think it looks unprofessional though.

But now if we get the north face ones we won't be the only ones with them now that swa had them.

Sad thing is, I need to return ASAP, as I've used all my sick / vacation time.

Big fan of the leather jacket here. I don't even have a blazer...it's leather until it's time to park it for the season. Super functional and saves packing an extra jacket.

What about wings on the shirts? The leather is approved, wings on shirts are not.

AA is buying the jackets back. No hat, no leather jacket. The leather jacket is a faux pas.

I get all of that. Sill hate that damn leather jacket and think looks unprofessional. Sort of along the lines of how our company badges are "company approved" but totally unprofessional. Or our entire livery for that matter. Just my personal "fashion" opinion which combined with 5 bucks gets you a coffee at Starbucks.
