<title>U.S. Postal Service to Launch Clothing Line</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-58087" title="&quot;You're a disgrace to the uniform!&quot; " src="http://www.mediabistro.com/prnewser/files/2013/02/seinfeld-theandreadoria_png_627x325_crop_upscale_q851-300x236.jpg" alt="" width="266" height="209" />Today in No, We Don&#8217;t Mean the Band News: The <strong>U.S. Postal Service</strong>, currently suffering from something of a PR crisis, <a href="http://nymag.com/thecut/2013/02/us-postal-service-to-launch-clothing-line.html" target="_blank">just announced</a> plans to develop its own clothing line with menswear maker <a href="http://www.wahconahgroup.com/html/products.html" target="_blank"><strong></strong><strong>Wahconah Group</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Before you ask, this is not a joke&#8211;<a href="http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2013/pr13_026x.htm" target="_blank">here&#8217;s the press release</a> to prove it.</p>
<p>The apparel and accessories line, designed to be &#8220;on the cutting edge of functional fashion&#8221;, will be called &#8220;Rain, Heat and Snow&#8221; in honor of the unofficial <strong>USPS</strong> motto: &#8220;Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stay these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.&#8221;</p>
<p>It won&#8217;t just be the usual shirts, hats and footwear&#8211;it will include &#8220;<a href="http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/postal-launch-clothing-line-2014-223202293--politics.html" target="_blank">wearable technology</a>&#8221; like jackets with built-in iPod controls so mailmen can more effectively ignore the outside world while on their usual routes, controlling the free flow of <em>information</em>.</p>
<p> <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/prnewser/u-s-postal-service-to-launch-clothing-line_b58085#more-58085" class="more-link">continued&#8230;</a></p>
