You're British police man round the time of Jack the ripper would of worn a white buttoned grand-dad shirt underneath, black trousers, with braces and belt. Polished black boots. Over that an eight-buttoned high collared police coat done up to the neck, with another black leather brass belt round the waist. He'd then have a six panelled custodian helmet on his head.
Further equipment would of been a Bulls eye lantern at night, wooden truncheon carried in the tail of his police coat, pair of handcuffs, a whistle and pencil and notepad, and whitechapel here he comes.

∙ 8y agoThey were called lots of names like peelers ,bobbies ,blue devils ,rozzerz ,coppers and pigs.

Peelers and bobbies yes, coppers probably, rozzer maybe; but I think "pigs" date from the 1960s and coined by far-left anti-establishment types. The name rather depends on how you view the Police: "peeler" and "bobby" being fairly benevolent.
