After being fitted on registration day, each student will have checked out a pair of overall-style black trousers, a gray and black jacket, and a marching helmet (except for certain instruments such as tuba—berets are issued). Other required items to complete the uniform include a pair of black socks long enough to totally cover the ankle area and above, black gloves, black marching shoes, and the designated SUTA shirt for underneath the jacket. The extra items (SUTA shirt, shoes, and gloves) will be available for purchase on registration day
