They used to be green shirt and green slacks with gold highlights. I don't think they have changed.

that grn uniform was the "Basic" uniform for all the CA. sheriffs depts at one time or another( L.A. County had that uniform until the mid 50s-Sacramento SO still uses it) most SOs in CA are Tan and grn( except contra costa County- go figure they'd change to all tan),with that all grn uniform either as utility or for civie employees....

I've never understood the color choice. "Blues" are much better at night when you don't want to be seen by the bad guys.

DOA, slight quibble here. Sacramento SO issues their deputies black uniforms.
