I got mine from Perrone leather. We had two choices, i think the other place was called flight suits. I only had mine for half of last winter, but no complaints.

I am curiuos as to where the Airtran guys buy their jackets. Anyone know?

Alaska uses San Diego Leather and there have been a few complaints about the color fading and the black color bleeding on the the shirt collar.
I have a Perrone jacket from my old company and it still looks almost new after 8 years of use.

AirTran was LL Bean...now through company web site. Don't know the vendor.

My comment: Way expensive! (XJT) Maybe someday.

Cheap, and pretty good quality. The buttons that hold the liner in come off easily. I can't really see using the liner, because the jacket is made out of very, very heavy leather.

My Perrone is going on 5 years old.

No complaints.

I've had mine since I was a new hire at ExpressJet (back then it was Continental Express) back in 98. That jacket carries me through every winter, extremely warm and you don't look like a flasher when you go out to dinner at night.

Trenchcoat and jeans with sneakers doesnt work....Get the leather jacket so you dont look like those "trenchcoat mafia" kids from Columbine
