Does your dojo or governing organization have karate uniform etiquette?

I had this question that seems to come into my thinking from time to time. Why is it there is such a disparity between students as to uniforms and how they are worn. I am wondering if anyone else has "uniform etiquette for the dojo" other than myself. I am asking the readers of this blog to comment as to any requirements their dojo or governing organizations ask their participants to follow when wearing a karate-gi.

First, I am narrowing this down to the "traditional white karate uniform made of medium to heavy weight cotton." The one that is tied at the waist and the jacket with string, lay of jacket is left over right, etc.

If you have such criteria, rules or requirements I am interested in how you do it at your dojo, etc. so ask for comments. If you prefer to you can send me a response directly to the email account on this blog.

Sincerely,
