FYI: if you have anything other than a flat stomach, a double breasted jacket looks horrible.

Ask me how I know.

Doesn't everything look horrible on anyone without a flat stomach?!

Point taken, but some things are worse than others. A single breasted jacket can be worn open without looking odd, but double breasted jackets should be worn buttoned at all times. Anyone sporting a beer belly ends up looking like they're wearing a tent.

That's why the company would want it.

Please make hats optional, some of us look like idiots wearing them.

Gotta wonder if these are simply various concepts, or perhaps a review of prior industry uniforms, considering the same chart also shows narrow and wide stripes for the epaulets?
I thought the same thing. Was this pic on flyingtogether?

Yup. There were several photos and a couple videos.

After watching the Brooks Brothers video I'm thinking it all relates to military uniforms they did in the past and has nothing to do with our current procurement, other than establish their bona fides for uniforms.

Yep. I found it. And I agree. Plus, it says that previews of the uniforms will be available later this year, so I doubt that is a picture of anything relevant for us. Thanks.

I agree I think they were showing off past work with the military. I don't think we got any sneak peaks at our new design.

Please please please change our cheap ass looking wings and hat emblem!
