I was also recently able to trade one of my winter santiago blue flight suits for the summer version. Still looking to buy a summer version dress uniform, or trade for one of my extra winter versions. This is ridiculously adorable. Do you know the style or what this could be called? First one I’ve seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we know the W.A.S.P. patch with the bug is not a WASP patch, I wonder what happened to the other reunion type patch. Also looks like the collar insignia was not in this group. ...Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
