In terms of uniform, the force looks very similar to police in the United Kingdom, apart from the Isle of Man custodian helmets worn by male constables and sergeants.
White helmets were introduced in 1960 as a summer alternative to the older black helmets (partly for tourism reasons).
White helmets were used as a summer option in other police forces (including Brighton, Southend-on-Sea and Swansea Borough Police forces; Peterborough City Police; the Metropolitan Police's band; and the New Zealand Police), but this practice ceased in the UK in 1969 and in New Zealand in the 1990s.
The white helmet is now worn year round by officers on foot patrol.
Officers on mobile patrol tend to wear peaked caps.

Officers of the rank of sergeant and above may carry a "signalling stick" when on foot patrol.
This is in effect an additional rank indicator.
Until very recently constables "acting up" in the rank of sergeant were referred to as "carrying the stick".
If the "acting" was only short term, the stick was often the only indicator of their additional responsibilities.
