Not what the uniforms actually look like, only what we wished they looked like!

Yahoo News – May 22, 2006:

The Dutch police union has received dozens of official complaints from policewomen about their new uniform blouse which they say is see-through.

The officers feel “uneasy” and “closely watched” while wearing the new garment, police union chairman Hans van Duijn told Monday’s edition of the Algemeen Dagblad newspaper.

“Even a white bra shows through the fabric,” he explained.

The police union has already received 20 official complaints although distribution of the new uniform has only just started.

Van Duijn suggested that police start issuing official undershirts to tackle the see-through problem.



  1. Did you see their shoes in the linked article? Funny.

    Dear God I hope my towns only policewoman doesn’t get these blouses. Please tell me they don’t come in extra plus sizes.

    Clogs? must not be effective when running after a criminal..
    unless they are too busy trying to see through the blouse..

  4. Anon says:

    I bet those clogs are ceremonial. I guess that goes against the credo that foreign people are idiots.

  5. Mike Voice says:

    This is not the first time the new blouse has sparked complaints. Earlier gold buttons on the breast pockets were replaced by more subdued white buttons because female officers complained the flashy gold drew too much attention to their chest.

    …subdued white buttons?

    Cripes, if they want something to complain about, replace the gold buttons with tassles!

    It’s purpose is to piss off the muslims and give the police an excuse to treat them with the same tenderness a Canadian furrier will do to a baby seal *g*

  7. Frank Grimes says:

    Selfish women should be happy that they get anything. If they don’t want to do police work with see through uniforms then they should go back into the kitchen and make me some pie.

    WOW……I have been to Amsterdam several times and I didn’t notice they HAD police. But then I didn’t notice they had anything outside the Red light district 🙂
