Student council officer outfits split into three settings: everyday school wear with light council branding, formal assembly and board appearances, and travel for leadership conferences. The Bear Grips Pro Shops catalog covers all three with a coherent product set. Here is what each officer should own, what the look says, and how the council can stock all of it without a bulk order.
Everyday School Wear With Council Identity
The everyday officer outfit is built around the council tee. The Bear Grips Airlume Cotton Athletic Tee with the school mascot and the council year stamp on the chest reads as council without screaming it. Pair with jeans or chinos. Add the Comfort Soft Hoodie in school colors for cold mornings.
Assembly and Board Meeting Look
When the council leads an assembly or addresses a school board, officers should look more put-together. The proven look:
- Gildan Cotton Pique Polo (school color, embroidered crest, officer title on right sleeve).
- Black or khaki pants.
- Closed-toe shoes.
This look is professional enough for any school setting and casual enough that officers do not feel like they are in costume.

For state and regional leadership conferences, officers wear:
- Embroidered polo or council long sleeve (Sport-Tek Men's Moisture Wicking Long Sleeve or Bella+Canvas Long Sleeve Cotton Shirt).
- Sport-Tek Quarter-Zip Pullover with embroidered school crest.
- Dress pants or chinos.
The full conference look in council colors makes the school instantly recognizable across the conference venue.
Look by Officer Role
- President: The most polished look at every event. Owns the polo, quarter-zip, and sweatshirt set. Speaks at assemblies in the polo.
- Vice President: Same set as the president. Often pairs with president for paired-officer photos.
- Secretary: Polo and sweatshirt. Less travel-heavy than president and VP.
- Treasurer: Same as secretary. Some treasurers add a quarter-zip for fundraiser pitches to parent boards.
- Historian: Tee and sweatshirt focused. Documents the year in apparel pieces with the year stamp.
How To Stock the Officer Wardrobe Without a Bulk Order
Each officer orders their own pieces through the council store at their own size. No bulk order, no sizing form, no leftover stock. The advisor sets the store up once at the start of the council year and officers order whenever they need a new piece. See shop setup guide.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Do officers buy their own outfits or does the council pay?
Most councils ask officers to buy their own. Some councils use spirit wear margin to cover one officer piece per officer (often the embroidered polo).
Can officers wear council gear outside of council functions?
Yes. Most officers wear the council tee and hoodie as everyday school apparel. The crest-style logo and the year stamp make it a piece they keep after graduation.
What if our school has a strict dress code?
The Gildan Cotton Pique Polo and the quarter-zip pullover meet the school dress code at every school we have served. The polo color and the pant requirement vary by school.
How do we keep the look consistent across five officers?
The shop stores your council logo and your officer title format. Each officer's order ships with the same crest placement, the same color, and the same fabric. Consistency is automatic.
