"The adrenaline rush of fear of the unknown world you have always wondered about and the uncomfortable feel of the handcuffs clamped tightly around your wrists, pressing against the hard plastic seat of the back of the cruiser. There are a thousand thoughts racing around in your mind ranging from how you could be so stupid to allow this happen, to trying to remember your wife’s phone number so you can call her from a land line, your single call to freedom."

As a prisoner you also need the right "jewelry". I do not like it when I can move around freely. Even if I'm locked in a cell.

Handcuffs and leg irons, connected by a chain, this is attached to a belt around the waist. The hands may be tied up with the handcuffs on his back or his belly. I find that fettered hands forward in this chain combination look very cool.

PRISON AND JAIL UNIFORMS

FASHION FOR THE INMATES

Many times inmates wear uniforms of the facility where they are located. Some places have one piece jumpsuits, others use two piece scrub type uniforms. In some areas the "Old chain gang times" are back: Jail officials named security as the top reason for the change from solid colored uniforms. They said they made the change to reduce the chance of inmates being mistaken for workers in uniform. Black-and-white striped uniforms are unmistakably prison garb.

JAIL RETURN TO STRIPED PRISON UNIFORMS - CHAIN GANG IS BACK

VINTAGE PRISON STRIPES ARE BACK IN FASHION AT COUNTY JAIL.

The change back to striped prison uniforms most recently has occurred at the County Adult Detention Center in , where new jail uniforms now have broad stripes of denim blue and white.

The new uniforms replace the orange garb inmates have worn. "The main reason for the change was because of security." The Sheriff's Department decided to change the jail uniform colors when orange became too vogue -- especially among teens -- and not bold enough to easily spot inmates if they escaped into a crowd.

Jail officials named security as the top reason for the change from solid colored uniforms. They said they made the change to reduce the chance of inmates being mistaken for workers in uniform.

The prisoner uniform makes it clear what their status is, and they'll get reported if they do things they are not allowed to do ...

HARD LABOUR FOR THE INMATES

The Director of the Department of Corrections will implement the following inmate labor regulations:

The director will require an offender of a correctional facility to perform hard labor suited to the offenders age, gender, and physical and mental condition. Labor is not restricted to the correctional facility, and can include road and maintenance work outside the facility.

When an offender is working outside the facility, the offender is in the actual custody of the superintendent of the correctional institution. The offender will be required to wear a brightly colored, readily identifiable uniform. Brightly colored signs will be posted in areas where offenders are performing off-site hard labor. The offender may be required to wear leg irons. At least two guards will be on duty when offenders are outside correctional facilities. Offenders will have no contact with the general public or receive any monetary compensation while performing hard labor. No offender convicted of a violent felony, sexual offense, or escape will be eligible for off-site hard labor.

The county jailer will cooperate with implementation of this program. The jailer may also use county jail inmates in hard labor. The same restrictions and rules required of state offenders will apply to offenders in county facilities. The county commission may establish further specific guidelines for the use of county inmate labor.
