The design for a Volunteer uniform was agreed by a sub-committee on 12 August 1914. The chosen uniform was to consist of a grey-green tunic, trousers and puttees. It was up to the individual volunteer to purchase these and while wearing a uniform was not compulsory for volunteers it was for officers.
