The search for the perfect flying jacket.

I use this jacket with my Security Officer uniform:

The "officer" version of this jacket as a different collar, but is otherwise the same. You'll likely find a better price on eBay or perhaps a local Army/Navy surplus store. Very warm for me during all but the coldest days. Not bulky at all.

I'm addicted to Patagonia. It started when my wife worked in their child development center and I got 50% off every thing (we live 15 miles from its headquarters). I have multiple jackets from them, they fit great, are warm and are gaurenteed forever. If you're not satisfied for any reason, take it back and get some thing else. As long as it has their tag on it, that's all you need. This one in black (if its the model im thinking of) makes a nice "work" jacket, and pretty decently priced for Patagonia.

Inverted Give Gibson-Barnes a call. They custom make a lot of uniforms and jackets so they probably could "build" you any type of jacket you wanted. They have excellent quality products!

We use these where I work, and had our company name embroidered on one side, and the leather nametag Velcro on the other.

They are warm, and repel wind and rain fairly well. The only downside to this jacket is that it doesn't have a pen pocket on the sleeve, so that's kinda aggravating...

Since PositionAndHold mentioned his love for Patagonia, got me to thinking about my seasonal work at LLBean. Kinda up there in price, but I gotta say, I like it.

Those U.S. Wings jackets are actually kind of nice looking - especially the M-65 field jacket. I could see myself rocking a shirt and tie under that.

Think some of our young 3p's could use one of these when shooting an actual ILS down to mins...
