New uniforms
Hello,
Does anyone know what the latest new uniform choices of xl,l,m and s actually refer to in terms of waist, leg, chest and neck measurements as the bloke taking the measuerments in our office has no clue, and neither do the managers. Thanks in advance as some folks like to know what they're signing for.
Great website, very helpful. Cheers.

Re: New uniforms
Your office should have got a poster explaining the new sizing - I think the XL is equilivent to a 18/18.5" collar size

Re: New uniforms
just got ours and it is a lot better.
my uniform appears to be a little big for me so DON'T order on the large size and if it doesn't fit it is easy to send it back a replace with a suitable size.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: New uniforms
I wanted the size guide too, SML is not a good size guide for us ladies. Needless to say this is going to be even more like a sack on us that the blouses we have atm. Too tight across the bust, and the rest is like a sack. *sigh* I was starting to believe I had a strange shape until I seen the other women posties out there who have same problems.

the fleece is red and so are the polo shirts which are almost identical to the old ones but you can still order the blue shirts if you want to although they don't look that good with the trousers.
