- The return policy - Before you buy a uniform, make sure you review the store’s return policy. Although not all, but many online postal uniform stores do not pay for return shipping. Go for a supplier that stands behind their shipments and offers free shipping on all their returns.
- Options in pants - You should be aware of your options in postal uniforms, especially when it comes to pants. Not everyone can fit into the standard issue postal uniform pants with ease. If you are finding issues getting a good fit, you need not to worry because USPS offers a flex-fit option. You can go for the new Union Line and Elbeco or flex-fit pants, which are designed for the ultimate comfort of the wearer as compared to the traditional postal uniform pants.
