DAL Uniforms

[Fly4hire]

Anyone -

Fact or fiction that DAL uniforms (pants/jacket)are made by the same vendor as USN uniforms? Do any of our former/current USN pilots get uniforms from the local NEX?

Made by Abbots out of Pensacola but Crewoutfitters is also a vendor.

I'm not Navy but that's what we were told by the Abbots people. The only difference is that the Delta jacket has some extra padding in the chest area designed to keep the jacket looking more "fitted" when you have it on, whatever that's supposed to mean.

But if you find a uniform at NEX, they said that you'll be fine.

But can you have it copied in Hong Kong or Shanghai ??? LOL

I was hoping we could get rid of the horse blanket with this merger.

Having bought from Abbotts and Crew Outfitters, the quality of Abbotts is better.

I hear Delta gets their uniforms from a the same San Fran outfit that dresses the sailor from the Village People.

The VI talking about the village people. Priceless.

ACL, why don't you just put him on your ignore list? FI is much better without his antagonistic BS. There's only 3 things TC is good at; serving coffee, taking orders and making himself feel important by throwing insults on FI.

Now back to the topic. Hats for the new DAL, yes or no?

VI? Oh, you mean VILLAGE IDIOT! Yes, VI, of course.

Good one guys! But people who wear retarded uniforms shouldn't really call anyone a VI.

I mean for real guys, why don't you grab a little self respect and stand up for yourselves? It's bad enough they pay you guys a shade more than a TSA guy, but to make you wear those outfits as well?

I would say yes to the hats. Our Flt Ops leadership loves the hats. Actually did a survey of our precious medals about getting rid of them. It was a resounding NO. I would expect it to stay as it. Maybe the wings and emblems will change to match the new widget but that it is. This company likes traditions, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Hopefully they won't continue with the pay cutting tradition.

Wow, that was another thought provoking deeply stimulating thread. This website really rocks, I'll never leave the house again. Now I can spend all my time reading the National Enquirer of aviation !!!

You give TC way too much credit. I don't think he can even do the first two things, but the third is true!

As for the hats, I'd like to see them go or at least be optional. As a commuter, when I have to take it with me, they are a pain in the a$$ to transport around!
