# FWPD Uniform Standards for On-Duty Patrol Officers

> Official FWPD uniform classes, required equipment, and restricted items every unwhitelisted patrol officer must follow while on duty.

Every officer who goes on duty with the Fort Worth Police Department must wear a properly configured FWPD uniform. Uniform standards exist to keep the department looking professional and to make officers immediately identifiable during roleplay. If you are not in a valid uniform, you should not be on duty.

<Note>
  These are **unwhitelisted (standard patrol) regulations**. They apply to all standard FWPD patrol officers. Whitelisted department staff and specialized units such as SEU are subject to their own separate standards.
</Note>

<Note>
  All on-duty FWPD officers must wear a valid **Class A, B, or C** FWPD uniform at all times while active. Logging on without a compliant uniform is a uniform violation.
</Note>

## Uniform Classes

The FWPD uses three uniform classes, all of which are FWPD-branded. Choose the class appropriate for your assignment or current situation.

### Class A — Formal / Dress Uniform

The Class A is the FWPD's formal dress uniform. You wear it for official ceremonies, command appearances, and any situation where a professional dress standard is required. It is not intended for heavy tactical use.

### Class B — Standard Patrol Uniform

The Class B is your everyday on-duty uniform for general patrol. This is the most common uniform you will wear during a standard shift. It balances a professional appearance with the practicality needed for active patrol work.

### Class C — Tactical / Utility Uniform

The Class C is the FWPD's tactical and utility uniform. You wear it during operations that require more functional or protective gear. It is still FWPD-branded and must conform to department standards.
