Navy Uniform Updates to Navy Working Uniform and WOOL Service Dress Blues

SDB Wear. Effective immediately, wear of the SDB Jacket or Eisenhower jacket for E-7 and above in office buildings or workspaces is optional throughout the fleet. This allows walking within the confines of a building without the SDB Jacket or Eisenhower jacket covering the white shirt and tie. Additionally, the black garrison cap is authorized as an acceptable substitute for the combination cover for wear with the SDB coat or Eisenhower jacket. This will allow individuals flexibility what to wear when working in an office setting while wearing SDBs. Additionally, it allows an individual to determine which cover makes the most sense for the situation.

NWU Type III Wear in the Pentagon. In coordination with the Acting Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV), effective 4 May 2026, NWU Type III wear is authorized in the Pentagon. This change is being made to ensure the Navy is aligned with the uniforms being worn in the Pentagon by other members of the Joint Force and in an effort to continue to instill a warrior ethos in our Sailors.
