Article 3501.33
Jumper, White Dress

 
Description of the Jumper 
Made of white 100% polyester, (certified navy twill) fabric, loose fitting, open at the neck and with a square sailor collar.  The jumper has two welt style pockets located outside on the front, and a side zipper on the left for improved ease of donning and doffing.  The bottom of the jumper is finished with a turn-up hem.  The collar has two stars on the jumper flap and is trimmed with three strips of navy blue piping, each 3/16 inch wide and 3/16 inch apart with outer piping 1/4 inch from collar edge.  Sleeves have two navy blue button fasteners on cuffs, trimmed with three piping of navy blue tape, each piping 3/16 inch wide and 3/16 inch apart, centered horizontally on the cuff and blocked off each end by a perpendicular white stripe 3/16 inch wide, connecting the ends of the horizontal piping. Distance from outer edge of perpendicular stripe cuff's open end is approximately 1-3/8 inches.  Buttons are 25-line, black, with Anchors.
 
Correct Wear of Jumper
Wear jumpers hanging straight at the sides, fitting comfortably across the shoulders without binding the armholes.  Sleeves are bloused so the bottom edge of the buttoned cuff covers the wrist bone when the elbow is bent across the front of the body.  When wearing an outer garment, the jumper collar is inside the garment.  An inverted sleeve crease extends down the arm at the inside and outside edges.  The body of the jumper has an outward crease in the front, inverted crease in the back, and the collar has three, evenly spaced outward vertical creases.  When fitting the Jumper to the individual, the unbuttoned cuff's edge shall reach the knuckles at the base of the fingers with hands hanging naturally at sides.

Ownership Markings
Turn the jumper inside out, front down, collar out facing away from you.  Using contrasting color ink, center surname, first and middle initial (if applicable) left to right and 1/4 inch below the collar seam.
