And it's a yes from me too, has anyone tried those performance shirts or whatever they're called, they've got pockets and are more like a regular shirt style, I'm in allowance to order so thought I'd try them.
I have a couple as I'm fairly new to the job (10 months). They aren't terrible...but are quite warm and I find they build up static as I move
Ah thanks, I might order one but will probably have to just wear it in winter, someone at our place said these last couple of days it's been like wearing a plastic bag so don't think I'd be able to cope with that.

The engineers in the mail centre have blue polo shirts do they do make them, they look much better as well
Parcelforce had the exact same fleeces as us except they got to keep theirs blue, so it's purely by choice they turned the uniform red. Just make the reflective strips red like the old bags and it would look like a properly updated continuation of the old uniform.
