Military Garments

Military and other uniform garment eligibility

Colored garments are only available for active-duty military service members, law enforcement officers, and firefighters; no other employment-related use of non-white garments has been authorized by the First Presidency.

Marking uniform garments in other colors

Individuals requiring color garments should purchase appropriately colored t-shirts from military clothing stores and send them to Distribution Services to be marked.

T-shirts sent to be marked must meet the following requirements:

Military insignias, such as name and branch of service, are allowed. No other logos are allowed.

T-shirts with pockets are not allowed.

Marks will be either sewn or silk screened, depending on the shirt. The customer cannot specify the method of marking.

Only endowed military, law enforcement, and firefighting members of the Church may order marks in garments. They will need to provide date of birth and membership record number (available on temple recommend or from ward clerk) for the order to be approved.

If you have further questions, please call 1-800-537-5971.
