More on quality -- red jackets

[Fat Old Guy 11]

Got caught in the rain in my spiffy Official BSA red wool jac-shirt the other day. Not a downpour, just a drizzle. As advertised, it kept me warm.

 

The shocker came when I took my jacket off. Everywhere the wet wool had been in contact with my shirt, my shirt was stained red.

 

This jacket isn't new and has been cleaned numerous times.

 

Don't you think that they could use a dye that wouldn't run.

Hi, this is my first post here so I hope it worked.. Yea i think those jackets may had a red dye in them. I have one that i wear from the 50's and the cuffs of my uniform shirt turned red from wearing it in similar conditions. The red came out in the wash though pretty well. Great jacket though!!
