uniforms

What teams wear

Uniforms are standardized clothing worn by members of a group—soldiers, students, nurses, police officers, athletes.

The uniform identifies the wearer's role and creates visual cohesion: The team wore their home uniforms.

As an adjective, uniform means consistent or unvarying: uniform quality, uniform standards.

To uniform is to outfit in standardized dress, though the verb is uncommon.
