Selecting the Right Foul Weather Gear For Your Sail

       We need to wear clothes and we wear different kind of clothes depend on different situations. In school, we need to wear school uniforms; at work, we wear formal suit to look professional. And in wedding, men may be wear tuxedos and women may wear dress. Since there are plenty kinds of clothes designs for different purpose, there is sportswear for sportsman to wear for sure. In this article, I would like to introduce one kind of outdoor sports clothing specifically used for sailing.
       When sailing, it’s necessary for you to wear some protective garment. One of the most common one is foul weather gear. It is intended to keep the wearer dry and warm in bad weather. If you’re planning anything longer than day trips in your boat, this kind of sailing gear will be the perfect choice for you. On sailboats, their open cockpits expose the deck crew to spray and rain for hours on end. And in the tropics, a midnight rainstorm can be surprisingly cold and miserable. For warmth beneath, you should wear loose-fitting layers, starting with a T-shirt and a long-sleeved shirt, topped with a woolen or polyester-fleece sweater if necessary. Wearing wool clothes is a good choice, for it will keep you warm even if sweat condenses inside the fabric
       The function of sailing gear is to keep you warm and dry in stormy conditions and must be comfortable without being bulky. It’s divided into four major categories for dinghy sailing, inshore work, coastal work, and ocean sailing. Your choice should depend on the kind of sailing you do. For example, the considerable outlay for the best jacket and pants for ocean work may not be justified if you do most of your sailing on inshore waters.

The Dress Code for Wearing Law Enforcement Uniform in UK

       The law enforcement uniform (police uniform) and equipment in the United Kingdom have varied considerably from the inception of what was to become the earliest recognizable mainstream police force in the country with the Metropolitan Police Act of 1829. Allowing the formation of the Metropolitan Police Service, and the various County Police Acts, policing became a more standardized practice in the United Kingdom throughout the late nineteenth century, the uniforms and equipment became equally standardized.
       For much of the twentieth century up to the mid 1990s, male police officers wore a formal work jacket with polished silver buttons, and black trousers with a sewn in truncheon pocket as their law enforcement uniform. No stab vest was worn and much less equipment was carried than is today. Following concerns about the police uniforms safety it was suggested that the uniform should be changed.
       From the 1990s it was generally accepted that the police could patrol in "shirt-sleeve order" which meant that they need not wear the jacket. In 1994 the Home Office, in agreement with the government and on the cooperation of many Chief Constables, changed the uniform from the business attire with no protection of the torso, to a uniform with black trousers, Blue NATO Jumper, stab vest, duty belt and reflective jacket. In general, these have taken their lead from the Metropolitan Police Service, due to it being recognized as the first police service in England. The base colour is a very dark blue, almost indistinguishable from black (and recently often is black), which earned the police the nickname of the "boys in blue".

The Necessity of Wearing Outdoor Sports Clothing When Exercising

       When you are doing outdoor activities or exercising, you should have the correct concept that wearing the suitable outfit is necessary. The outfit you wear for exercise should be light-weighted, for instance. According to different activities, there are different outdoor sports clothing for you to choose. It is a type of clothing, including footwear, worn for sport or physical exercise. Sport-specific clothing is worn for most sports and physical exercise, for practical, comfort or safety reasons.

       Typical outdoor sports clothing includes shorts, tracksuits, T-shirts, tennis shirts and polo shirts. Specialized garments include wetsuit/foul weather gear (for swimming, diving or surfing) and salopettes (for skiing) and leotards (for gymnastics). Furthermore,  sportswear is designed to be light weight so as not to encumber the wearer. The best athletic wear for some forms of exercise, like cycling, should not create drag or be too bulky. On the other hand, sportswear should be loose enough so as not to restrict movement. Some sports have specific style requirements, for example the Keikogi used in karate. Various physically dangerous sports require protective gear, e.g. for fencing, American football or ice hockey.

       Finally, outdoor sports clothing design must consider the thermal insulation needs of the wearer. In hot situations, sportswear should allow the wearer to stay cool; while in cold situations, sportswear should help the wearer to stay warm.
