striped uniform
Classic jail garb
A striped uniform is prison clothing, traditionally featuring horizontal black-and-white stripes.
The pattern made escaped prisoners instantly recognizable.
Though largely replaced by solid-colored jumpsuits in modern prisons, striped uniforms persist as a cultural symbol of incarceration: cartoon convicts in striped uniforms breaking rocks.
