Where to buy

In the choosing a first uniform, we suggested the Tropical Blue and the ODU (Operational Dress Uniform). The Tropical Blue uniform, or Trops, is the more formal of these uniforms and should be your first purchase if you plan to participate primarily in activities other than operations. One of the privileges of being a member of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is the wearing the uniform . For some activities, wearing of an appropriate uniform is a requirement to be able to participate. This guide is intended primarily for new Flotilla members who may not be familiar with the wearing of the Coast Guard uniform, and for those who have never worn a uniform. Should you choose to wear the uniform, or are required to wear it in the performance of your duties, it is important to keep a few things in mind. Proper wearing of the uniform shows respect for the customs and traditions of the Coast Guard and the Coast Guard Auxiliary. How you wear the uniform reflects on you (at all times), the Auxiliary (when interacting with the Coast Guard), and the Coast Guard (when interacting with the public).

Note: If you do not have 100% of your uniform items, then you cannot wear the uniform. The following are uniform resources:
