Some things deserve more than a flag slapped on a shirt and called a tribute.
When we decided to build a flannel honoring the men and women of the United States Air Force, we wanted to do it right. Not our interpretation of what the Air Force should look like. Something that felt right to the people who have actually worn the uniform.
Somewhere along the way, FLY•FIGHT•WIN became a passion project for us. We spoke with active-duty, Reserve, Guard, and retired members of the United States Air Force, listened to their input, and kept working until this one felt right. Every color and every line running through this plaid was treated as an important piece of the theme. Nothing was thrown in just because it looked good. It all needed a reason to be there.
Air Force Blue represents the sky, pride, excellence, and dedication of the Airmen who serve in it. Air Force Yellow represents the sun, excellence, and the high standards expected of those who wear the uniform. White brings the contrast and clarity found throughout Air Force insignia, while silver-gray represents the precision, technology, and advancement that have long defined the USAF.
This was never about designing a flannel that simply looked like a USAF tribute. It was about building one that meant something to the people who served. So, we started with the Air Force itself and built every line of this plaid from there.
Inside, the tribute continues with a custom woven label featuring the unmistakable A-10 Thunderbolt II coming straight at you with FLY•FIGHT•WIN worked into the artwork. And since the A-10 has never exactly been known for being subtle, that monster sticking out of its nose is the GAU-8/A Avenger, a 30mm seven-barrel Gatling gun capable of firing up to 3,900 rounds per minute.
Yeah... that'll do!
This one is for the Airmen serving today, those who served before them, and the families who understand what that service asks of the people they love.
