This Site incorporates physical, electronic, and administrative procedures to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information, including Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL") for all financial transactions through this Site. We use SSL encryption to protect your personal information online, and we also take several steps to protect your personal information in our facilities. Access to your personal information is restricted. Only employees who need access to your personal information to perform a specific job are granted access to your personal information. Finally, we rely on third-party service providers for the physical security of some of our computer hardware. We believe that their security procedures are adequate. For example, when you visit our Site, you access servers that are kept in a secure physical environment, behind a locked cage and an electronic firewall.
While we use industry-standard precautions to safeguard your personal information, we cannot guarantee complete security. 100% complete security does not presently exist anywhere online or offline.
OFFLINE COLLECTION, USE & DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
The majority of information that we collect is obtained through our site; however, during sales campaigns conducted away from our offices, we collect information from people signing up for notifications and/or when making purchases of our products. In such instances, it is policy to limit saved personal information to only elements necessary to complete the current transaction and possible return. One example involves someone calling us to place an order or to ask questions. When someone calls, we will ask only for the personal information we need in order to place the order or to answer the question. When we need to store information (such as order information), we will enter it into our database through SSL encryption. (See the Data Security section above for more information). Another example involves faxes. If you fax something to us, we will act upon the fax and then either store it a locked repository or we will shred the fax if there is no need to retain the information. There are other ways we could learn of personal information offline (for example, we suppose someone could send us a letter including some return address information), and this Policy doesn't discuss or try to predict all of those methods or uses. As we mentioned, we primarily sell merchandise, not information, and we will try to treat offline collection, uses, and disclosures consistently with our relevant online practices.

Our Products
Wing Eyelets

ALL OTHER SHIRT STYLES:
OPTION #1 Add sewn wing holes for $1.50 on the same page when adding shirt(s) to your cart
OPTION #2 Request free rectangular iron-on fusings via our feedback form or add to your shopping cart by clicking here. We do not believe this is necessary for the longevity of the shirt but the enforcement pieces do help with wing alignment. Please note these are shipped separately.
The pockets are a false flap.This portrays a pocket flap for style reasons but is open along the top for easy access and to eliminate the need for buttoning and eliminates bulging or unbuttoned flaps. A stitch detail accomodates badges. The left pocket has internal velcro for heavier items. The right side is intended for light items like trip sheets and earplugs. A pen's clip can easily fasten around the top of the flap and conceals the pen's body. Picture
