This post (by Lostgringo) from the thread Buying a first suit has me seriously contemplating "uniform game"

Quote:

I have been forced to wear a "suit" for all of my adult life - its called a uniform. Forget the military, I'm talking about an airline pilot uniform. They range from sad (US carriers) to classy (Cathay, SAS, read; Euro/Asian). Personally, I can't wait to shed the monkey suit when I land, but I will let you all in on a little secret; you'd be amazed how you can pull in a pilot's uniform. If I didn't do what I do for a living, I would absolutely use a pilot uniform to pursue women. I can't remember how many women I've met inside, but more importantly - outside, an airport. I have for years, made it a rule to find good cafes/restos/bars in the cities I visit - to go hit on women while in uniform. I have a system, whereby I'm always far enough away from the crew hotel so that I don't get a reputation with my co-workers. Doing this for years, I know exactly the kind of place I'm looking for - in short, the kind of place that a guy like G would hit. If I'm in a new place, a good tip to the concierge always sends me to the kill zone I'm looking for. Now, if I didn't do what I do, I'd get a uniform made for me - plenty of tailors do this in places like Hong Kong and BKK, so they know the drill and can knock of perfect, custom made uniform that will make the women swoon. All you need is a little shop-talk to carry the BS and a story of why you are in "blank" city/country. I would find a little known cargo airline and tell the ladies that you are in said city for a temporary posting - say a month, and perhaps longer. Assuming you have rented an apartment, you are all set. Move around from neighborhood to neighborhood. Don't go drinking at night, but use this approach for lunch through PM coffee to early dinner. This will put new meaning to the term "day game". I have banged hundreds of women using this approach. You have instant social status, money and trust - plus you are a globe-trotting man of mystery. After five minutes of chatting, she will be planning her romantic holiday to St. Tropez with her dashing airline captain boyfriend. You, will be in her pants in short order. You have to use your brain with this one; you can't simply go to your favorite bar everyday at 6pm or you will quickly be outed as a clown. Also, the reason for the uniform is that you are having a relaxing lunch/cafe/dinner before heading off to work. Added bonus - wait staff. You'd be amazed at how many hot waitresses can be had with this trick. I am always alone - accompanied by the Herald Tribune, and they are almost always happy to chat. Say I walk in for lunch, have a nice chat with the waitress, tell her that I'd love to meet her for a drink later, but I'm flying out this evening to Paris.....why don't we meet on Friday when I return? Shit, if I were 30........I'd do the exact same thing all over again.

Thoughts and ideas on expanding this? I could see rockin' certain uniforms as being a massive DHV.

That's one of my favorite posts from the suit threads. Reminds me of, and confirmed with, Catch me if you can (book):

"I felt great in my Pan Am uniform, I obviously was commanding respect and esteem. Men looked at me admiringly and enviously. Pretty women and girls smiled at me. Airport policeman nodded courteously. Every man woman and child noticed me seemed warm and friendly.
It was heady stuff and I loved it. I became instantly addicted. During the next five years the uniform was my alter ego. I used it in the same manner a junkie shoots up on heroin. Whenever I felt lonely rejected depressed doubtful of my own worth I'd suit up in my uniform and find a crowd."
Pg.45 Get the book, much better than the movie. Something the movie doesn't emphasize is that Abagnale did it for the game, not the money.

That sold me on a suit. I have cash at hand that I want a tailor to take from me, just take my money, please.

Lets just say I have some experience with the uniform deal. I think one of the main keys is to remain humble while in uniform. You have DHV all over yourself and cool interesting stories to back it up, there is no need to brag and or talk yourself up.

While I don't actively game while wearing it, I do experiment with it by occasionally running errands or stopping at new coffee shops on my way to/from work.

I feel more confident, I stand up straighter, I can stare down ANY male competition until they look away from me, most of the time they look at me with envy.

I just look around and know that I have a way more interesting job/life than 99% of the people I see. I know if the female has a boyfriend, my daily stories are 10x more interesting than his.

I notice more of a swag in my step.

Women in turn notice this, I would guess eye contact goes up about 3-4 times what I normally get.

Small talk is way easier. It is almost like flipping a switch on the male/female approach patterns, if I let them they will lead the conversation instead of letting it die out. I still have to open and stoke the fire occasionally, but I have "small/big bait" all over me for them to bite on.

I usually get personal questions within about a minute or two. Sometimes they come too fast that I can't accurately judge if the lizard is interested or if she is just curious about the novelty. The ones that ask fast AND are interested will have open body language and other subconscious cues (hair playing, giggling, playing with phone, etc). Either way I can determine if the digits are likely within a couple minutes, five at most.

Sometimes, I don't even have to open. About two weeks ago I stopped at a coffee shop at a State College on my way to work. My mind was focused primarily on the job I had been called in to do so I was not thinking about game. Out of nowhere I hear "Wow, I have never seen it this slow." A cute little Italian 8 co-ed had opened me from behind (giggity). Turns out she works as a maid/nanny for a couple that lives a couple miles from where I work. I got the digits and am enjoying the free lunches that I get when I have time.

I get free coffee/small snacks at some gas stations, I have noticed this has only happened with younger cashiers or real old ones. The middle aged haggard looking bitches don't even give me a smile.

People hold doors open for me, let me cut in lines, and are just generally nicer.

HOWEVER

The same theories of scarcity apply. Where I am now, there are maybe about 30 people in the state who do what I do, and I am the youngest of the bunch by about five years. Where I was a year ago, there were about 6000 within a thirty minute radius. The uniform held absolutely ZERO weight there, it actually started to hurt me.

Im gonna go grab the Catch Me If You Can Book, sounds like a blast to read and I am curious as the the uniform game Abagnale pulled.

edit- Just wanted to throw out that the job has me tied to a single location for the next couple years. 1-2 week long international travel is possible, but anything more than that is a no-go. So sometimes the juice isn't worth the squeeze.

I need to know where an american guy can get such a uniform.

this sounds like so much fun!!

I'm seriously thinking about it. I see a lot of potential with it in a nearby SWPL neighborhood - tons of single college-educated 25 to 35 yr. old middle to upper-middle class females working as HR Managers etc.

AntiTrace, great post man.

It's Fleet week here in NYC and the uniform is a pure game-changer.

I have to wear the most god auful uniform at my job. I think it brings my chances of getting laid down a good 50%. When I show up to work in my normal clothes, people don't even recongnize me.

Where would one purchase a pilot uniform or another one that will get girls curious?

not hard to find "legit" uniforms for any job.

I guess if you want to wear it around for show you could go for it.

You could also look up social engineering and try to break yourself into somewhere.
It can be as easy as walking into a place with a shirt, tie and carry a business style folder and walk with a purpose

Haha, this pilot complained about his lack of success with the stewardesses--with a hot mic. "Gays, grannies, and grandes".
