State police uniforms are recognizable for a reason, so people can identify an officer on sight. They have standard pieces to their uniform: shirt and tie, striped pants, hat, patch, and badge. What you may not have realized is that each state has their own unique take on the standard uniform. You can spot the similarities and differences on this infographic from the team at Wizards Pins. Here you’ll see that colors vary a lot by state and most often include shades like navy blue, tan, charcoal gray, French blue, and green. The biggest differences are in the unique patches and badge designs for each state. The infographic shows these in all their detail. You’ll notice that many of these imitate state flags, but some states designed a completely unique logo for their police uniforms. A few states have features completely unique to their force, like the Stetson hat for Texas state police officers.
