Can new customers use generic career apparel items from other agencies (i.e.. pants-socks-belts-footwear-jacket)?
Yes, as long as there are no distinguishing crestings or insignias, all customers are encouraged to participate in what is called the Generic Career Apparel Program. This program has developed over the years by the means of larger agencies allowing the not so large acquire product that otherwise would be too costly or just unavailable. Smaller agencies can take advantage the of PDC bulk purchasing capabilities, higher stocking levels (availability of product), better pricing.
