#jail uniform

my outfit for the night

a personal favorite of mine: orange and white striped Bob Barker shirt and pants! also included - orange Gildan sweater and (a bit too bright) orange Hanes shirt.

would have been nice if I found an orange and white striped jumpsuit to make this set even better! I really wouldn't care if it looked brand new, or a bit discolored! But hey, this is better than having no stripes at all!

Like your blog! Do you think you will ever go back to prison?

I read somewhere that in HMP / British prisons you get a "Welcome pack" when you first enter the prison and get processed. What does that mean and what does it include? Hope you don't mind me asking but I don't know much about UK prisons

Hi. Thanks ever so much. I'm very pleased you like my blog!

Yes, I know what you are referring to. Things vary a bit depending on which prison you end up in over here in the UK but generally it's the same sort of things you will receive. Please bear in mind that the things I am about to list apply to when I was in prison 8 years ago so what I describe may have changed a bit now but it will be mostly the same sort of stuff.

One of the questions you get asked when being processed at reception and intake is wether you are a smoker or not and this will determine what type of welcome pack you get. For instance I was and still am a non-smoker so I had the non-smokers welcome pack which consisted of a toiletries bag with soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, hand towel, hand sanitiser, roll of toilet paper, tea bags, coffee sachets, some cartons of long life milk and some suger sachets. Also had a phone card with £3 worth of credit on it and your prisoner rule book. You also get issued with your own plastic plate, cutlery and mug. The smokers pack is virtually the same but you get less tea bags, coffee etc in that pack and you get some vape sticks instead (used to be tobacco and papers but replaced with vapes now). Even if you don't smoke I advise you to still ask for the smokers pack because vape products are a extremely useful form of currency in prison. I regularly bought vape products from the prison canteen list / commissary because of it being a useful form of currency even though I didn't smoke.

The other things I got at the same time as my welcome pack was my prison clothing issue. This consisted of the following:

1 x short sleeve HMP prison stripe shirt, 1 x long sleeve HMP prison stripe shirt, 2 x green t-shirts, 2 x HMP prison blue denim jeans, 2 x grey sweatpants, 1 x grey sweatshirt, 5 x white boxer shorts, 5 x white socks, 1 x wolly hat, 1 x outdoor jacket. A little tip with HMP prison issue stuff... always size up one size with the prison issue jeans and shirts. They always seem to be a bit smaller than the size they should be. I was a 32 inch waist and when I tried to put the prison issue 32W jeans on I couldn't even do up my button and zip on them so size up one usually. Same applies with the shirts because they shrink a bit in the wash. In some UK prisons these days you can also wear items of your own clothing with certain restrictions and this will be explained to you at intake but back when I was in prison a few years ago I was in prison issue stuff.

As for the question of if I will ever go back to prison, the answer is probably not even though I admit I do miss it sometimes. My life is completely different and settled now and I've not been in trouble at all since my release 8 years ago so no I probably won't ever go back but can never say never as you never know what life throws up!

Thanks for the questions and if you need further information please message me.

Best wishes.

Кто-нибудь смотрел фильм «Удача Логана»? Главный герой, в исполнении Ченнинга Татума, для того, чтобы ограбить кассы автотрека, обращается за помощью к знакомому, в исполнении Дэниела Крейга, который сидит в тюрьме. В тюрьме, в зале для свиданий, героя Крейга мы видим в тюремной робе – комбинезоне в чёрно-белую полоску (классика американской тюрьмы). Обращает внимание, что все арестанты, которые находятся в этой комнате, одеты в такие же комбинезоны. Однако, когда мы видим эпизоды в других помещениях тюрьмы, в частности в столовой, арестанты оказываются уже одеты в парки – отдельные элементы одежды: брюки и рубаху, всё в туже чёрно-белую полоску. У меня возник вопрос – это что же получается, арестантов для свидания специально переодевают в комбинезоны, или это косяк костюмеров? Как вы думаете?

An attractive, lady with an upper middle class background gets busted. During the ride to jail she upholds the belief in her mind that she is better than an inmate. She has never been in trouble before and could be looking at a lengthy sentence. She will be held with no bond for crime that she has committed. She is handcuffed and brought into the booking area of the jail. She remains handcuffed while sitting on the bench. She feels a sense of relief when the guard comes to take her to the booking area. There, she sits in front of a lady behind a desk that starts asking way too personal questions. She is escorted to have her mugshot taken, followed by fingerprinting. The guard then directs her to a small room near the shower area and tells her to strip everything and get against the wall. She is showered and issued a 2-piece orange uniform to wear in her cell.

first time here in the can

well, not literally lol; I'm exploring a thing or two about jail/prison roleplay

I've been collecting inmate uniforms since 2020, starting with the classic black-and-white striped shirt by Bob Barker; since then, my collection has grown quite a bit as time passed.

today, I have a collection of mostly scrubs (shirt and pants), one jumpsuit (I'll be on the hunt for more in the future), one orange D.O.C. zipper jacket, one orange shirt, and lastly an orange sweater! I will also be on the hunt for some orange socks, and eventually some orange slides or clogs (just not crocs though, they're illegal in Slowjamastan lol!)

Anyways, I look forward to posting some of my uniforms and any jail/prison related thing on here and share it with everyone!

John Dylan Adams in court.  He is accused of murder and the prosecution is seeking the death penalty.

Jamie Walter in court.  2 piece scrub suit style jail uniform with belly chain and side mounted cuffs.  I doubt that being covered in tats made the judge more willing to accept his pleas of innocence!
