This British Police Black Shirt is an authentic tactical field shirt that is now part of the standard British Police Officer uniform. Gone are the days of the British "Bobby" wearing a white dress shirt with clip on black tie, now you'll find both male and female officers wearing this exact style of shirt while on patrol in every city in the United Kingdom.
The British Police have begun to issue this black police shirt to all British "Bobbys" who go on street patrol. After extensive testing, police officers in the United Kingdom declared this black shirt -- made from light weight, breathable material -- to be the best police duty shirt to be worn with body armor. In days past the traditional British Bobby uniform had patrol officers wearing long sleeve white dress shirts with clip on ties, not exactly practical or comfortable while wearing body armor.
Features:
- Authentic British Police Shirt - Made from Coolmax Type Material
- Tactical Black Color with "POLICE" in embroidered in white on both sleeves
- Zippered Neck - Raise or Lower depending on temperature and desired comfort

Be sure to look at the picture of actual British Bobby's wearing this shirt while on street patrol. There is also a great article on the Daily Mail's website that describes why the British police changed to this style of shirt.
