Postal Service Opening A New Clothing Line
The Postal Service's latest fix for its money problems — launching a clothing line. It has signed an agreement with the Cleveland-based apparel company Wahconah. The new line will be called "Rain ... Heat ... and Snow." The Postal Service said it will also feature wearable electronics. Officials said it will put the Postal Service on the cutting edge of functional fashion. Men's wear comes out first, but a women's line will follow.

Please
Stop
LOL will the mail carriers be taking orders now,what a joke.
So now the government is going into competition with our country's retail merchants?? This has GOT to be illegal. It is MORALLY wrong even if not illegal. RETAILERS: REVOLT...phone/email/write your "elected" representatives and complain... I'll give you good odds the stuff is'nt even manufactured in the USA...
The marketing and economic prowess of the brain surgeon(s) that came up with this leaves me speechless.
This should be the poster child of government involvement in ANY financial decisions.
Link is dead
11:27 AM - USPS already has their anti-trust cup full. Any employee caught working for any business that competes with what USPS does can be fired. Also, I think this clothing is for themselves, at least for City USPS workers. Rural carriers will keep the old rag tag dress that they have today.
This is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of
Wait until some idjit dressed in snazzy USPS clothing gains access to a school with a bomb in his new mailbag. Be the end of that retail line.
So, are taxpayers paying to put uniforms on the mail carriers? and now they have to be fashionable? WTF?
100pm-No, these clothes will be attempted to be sold in department stores.
Another bullet point on a long list of jokes/reasons we need to abolish this clown quasi-agency.
