Did YOU ever think the the taxpayers pay your salary & WE should decide what your dress code should be............just like in business, the owners get to make the rules. (In the case of PoPo's, we, the taxpayer, should also bear the cost of your duty clothing.)
You don't like that, find another career.
Don't misunderstand, Pira; I think your a good, & generally logical & sensible guy from most of your posts........but there are other views on this contrary to what your emotions may make you feel.

Couple of points.
You must have missed the part where I said I buy my own. A lot of agencies are that way.
And I pay taxes too. So that makes me at least equal in the decision making process of what I wear. Maybe a bit more because I have experience working in it.
And finally, 90% of the people we contact are not tax payers. They're tax users. Just sayin.
While I am happy for your great private sector success that has made your taxes alone exceed your government pay and benies, the only way that a government non-worker can ever pay taxes; almost every other government non-worker pays no taxes and is a much worse tax user than even the 'welfarians.'
Ummm, what? That made no sense if it was directed at me
You wrote that you were both a paid cop and a taxpayer.
I wrote that I was happy for your great private enterprise success, that is a prerequisite to your statement being accurate and honest.
Government non-workers are paid by the same government to which taxes are paid. Government entities circulating money amongst themselves can be many things, but none of those are actually and honestly paying taxes.
Government non-workers can only pay taxes if their private sector income is great enough to incur taxes that exceed their government income.
Government non-workers are, except for those very few with large private sector incomes, much worse tax users than are any welfare recipient.
