Before they try fashion, they need to get mail delivery cost-effective.

“Rain Heat & Snow,”

You wear one of those hats to remind you that if it’s doing any of those things outsider, or it’s Saturday, don’t bother to check your mail box, it’ll be empty.

That's what we all need. The postal service trying to go Hollywood.

The next thing we will see is a Kardashian hired to do the promotionals since Lance Armstrong is out.

Why can't they just cut their rates by 30% and either promise or guarantee some service?

I can see the back page of the apparel catalog have choice weapons used by workers that went “postal”.

Just stick some USPS logo’s on some Walmart T-shirts. That should do it. Who wants to wear USPS clothing anyway?

UPS won’t deliver oversized packages abroad.

Apart from that, once postage fees are paid, they’ll ship anything anywhere, within reason.

The first image to pop into my mind was this...

I'm sure it's not what they wanted.

They are trying to be competent in something that has NOTHING to do with the job.

Umm, I was being a bit sarcastic. I said, why not just put some USPS logos on some Walmart T-shirts. IOW, why do a fancy line of clothing that's tied to USPS when a Walmart T-shirt would be just as good.

BTW - USPS United States Postal Service. UPS is United Parcel Service. Just saying. And UPS does ship over sized packages over seas. Get them here in Oz. R/J

This makes no sense to me - fashion or otherwise. If they are losing money, how can they (we, the taxpayers, who still subsidize this rotten, corrupt agency) afford to sponsor a clothing line??

Methinks something MORE remains rotten in Washington!!
