Subject: Uniform Committee Recommendations
The Uniform Committee recently met and discussed the following items regarding the wearing of hats and beanies and the wear testing of a suspender system and vest carrier system. Below
are the committee’s recommendations.
The baseball hat is a black hat with silver lettering stating SAN LUIS OBISPO POLICE.
The beanie is a black beanie with silver lettering stating SLOPD and no other logos showing.
Continue with the wear test of the suspender system and incorporate into the Uniform Policy after 6 months
Initiate a 6 month wear test program of the vest carrier system. Officer Etherton will get a few different models for wear testing that do not appear “tactical”. Prior to testing in
the field Officer Etherton will get Captain Storton’s approval to wear test the particular samples. After the 6 month wear test period the Uniform Committee will make a recommendation
as to which models are functional and appropriate for use.
