hey all, posting just to be a pest again, I was browsing local workwear shops for boilersuits, and I noticed a lot of them stocked coveralls with reflective tape markings on them, like this

i have conflicting thoughts. for a mech engineer (which i'm possibly considering as a future brigade) they have a kind of uniqe, swarzy look. on the other hand, they're a very earthy sort of marking to have, aren't they? what do you guys think? would a navy or deep blue boilersuit with those reflective markings fit the CRL's, or would it get a suit knocked back if they were included?

I would take the tape off.  It would be easy enough to do with a seam ripper.

I live in West Virginia coal country and those kinds of work coveralls are very common and have a very specific "earthy" (ie-non-SWarzy) look to me.

If you wanted to add something like that to your kit later as part of a brigade application, I can see where you could make that work, but I would not wear those on your initial application.

oh don't get me wrong, i haven't even settled on a set of coveralls yet, it'd probably be cheaper to just get some sans stripes anyway!

From experience, reflective tape in pictures can be a nightmare, even without a flash. If you like the look you can add some silver fabric?
