What to Wear (and Not Wear) When Visiting Central Florida Reception Center
Central Florida Reception Center follows Florida DOC dress rules strictly. Dress conservatively to avoid delays—or getting turned away at the door.
You must wear a shirt to enter the visiting area at Central Florida Reception Center. If you show up without one, you can be denied entry - so plan your outfit around a proper top with full coverage.
Shoes are required. The facility doesn't allow Heelys or any footwear with removable parts - skip anything with pieces that detach and stick with simple, secure shoes.
Watch your hem length. Dresses, skirts, and Bermuda-length shorts can't sit more than three inches above the knee. Not sure where yours falls? Go longer to be safe.
Don’t wear military-style camouflage to a visit. That includes jungle (green), urban (grey/black), and desert (tan/brown) camouflage patterns.
Quick Tips Examples
- ✓ Choose conservative lengths for skirts, dresses, and Bermuda shorts so they’re not more than 3 inches above the knee.
- ✓ Wear a real shirt with solid coverage; avoid see-through fabric and underwear-style tops so you meet the “shirts required” rule.
- ✓ Wear shoes with no removable parts; don’t wear Heelys.
- ✓ Avoid all military-style camouflage (jungle/urban/desert patterns).
