Uniform
There are 3 types of KRS uniforms, namely Uniform No. 2, Uniform No. 3 and Uniform No. 4. There is also a type of informal activity attire(Uniform No.1) which is the KRS t-shirt with track bottoms. The most frequently used uniform is the Sherwood Dark Green Uniform No.4. The Uniform No. 4 is considered the official uniform of KRS. Uniform No. 4 consists of the Sherwood Dark Green long-sleeved smart shirt and trousers, beret, name tag, logos, collar dots, badges and lanyard. Additional items include a hackle for the beret, muffler and gloves. Boots are required when wearing the Uniform No. 4 and they include spike boots and drill boots (when drilling). Students seldom afford to purchase the Uniform No. 3 as it is an optional uniform for students which consists of a light green smart shirt and slack pants or school uniform trousers (olive green). Uniform No. 2 is a more formal activity attire which is a half-uniform. The cap badge of the KRS beret is worn on the right side (other groups wear them on the left side).
It is compulsory for KRS nationwide in Malaysia to wear their uniform every Wednesday during school hours. Officers (teachers) are required to do so too. Officers normally chose to wear the Uniform No. 3 as it is more lightweight and airy. There are also bush jackets and ceremonial uniforms (pakaian istiadat) for high ranking KRS officers which are normally education officers.

Famous quotes containing the word uniform:
“Iconic clothing has been secularized.... A guardsman in a dress uniform is ostensibly an icon of aggression; his coat is red as the blood he hopes to shed. Seen on a coat-hanger, with no man inside it, the uniform loses all its blustering significance and, to the innocent eye seduced by decorative colour and tactile braid, it is as abstract in symbolic information as a parasol to an Eskimo. It becomes simply magnificent.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“The sugar maple is remarkable for its clean ankle. The groves of these trees looked like vast forest sheds, their branches stopping short at a uniform height, four or five feet from the ground, like eaves, as if they had been trimmed by art, so that you could look under and through the whole grove with its leafy canopy, as under a tent whose curtain is raised.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“When a uniform exercise of kindness to prisoners on our part has been returned by as uniform severity on the part of our enemies, you must excuse me for saying it is high time, by other lessons, to teach respect to the dictates of humanity; in such a case, retaliation becomes an act of benevolence.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
