U-N-I-F-O-R-M

It's called a uniform for a reason: it's uniform. "Close to" or "just like" isn't the same. If the uniform standard specified "similar to," then it would be OK, but it doesn't, and it's not, and I don't want anymore calls. The uniform specified isn't necessarily inexpensive, but it is nowhere near what an actual NPS/ODNR/OSP/BSSA/LAPD/CDC/LASO spec uniform costs. And being a parent, I also know exactly how much it costs to get jeans or shirts with different maker or store brands on them, so stop it. Trust me, you don't want tropical wool pants and shirts (with five starched, not sewn, military creases), braid, a tie, and a dress blouse as your uniform of the day, nor do you want the dry-cleaning bills. And yes, guys, that's "blouse," as in full-length jacket worn over shirt with all buttons polished and buttoned at all time, and your Sam Browne belt trying to turn itself into a brassiere.  I could specify less expensive articles, but I don't, and I'll explain why, once:

EXPLODING CROTCHES

In order to keep costs low, the uniform pants are also worn during practical lab classes like firearms and subject control. In the past, less expensive pants were the standard, but women complained that they didn't fit right. More importantly, during high levels of activities, occasionally the seams at the crotch would decide to part ways, leading to more full disclosure than anyone wanted. So, due to women complaining that the pants made their butts look big/small/funny/sideways/upside down and in the interest of keeping everyone's undies, or lack thereof, concealed, you will acquire the specified uniform trousers and wear same, in accordance with the uniform regulations that will be explained in nauseating detail during Training Day 1 Orientation.
