Are their uniform pants and shoes? There is no specific style of pant that is required, just that the pants be the correct color for the student’s designation (beginner or member). They should be in the form of dress or casual slacks, not jeans, carpenter pants, etc. Dickies pants are acceptable. Shoes also must be of the correct color, but there is not a specific shoe style required. However, shoes must be ‘dress’ shoes (hard or rubber sole is acceptable). Other styles of casual, walking shoes, etc. are not acceptable. If in doubt, consider what kind of shoes would be appropriate for more formal dress. My son has not yet received his hoodie, what do I do? Please contact Uniformity directly (information above). Can I pick up a hoodie up at the store? Yes, again as September gets closer, lines at the store will grow dramatically, so please plan accordingly. I don’t know my son’s group.
