The Referee Uniform consists of:
Official Sports Referee shirt (Preferably yellow) - The referee is required to wear a uniform of a different color than either of the teams he/she is officiating. Yellow is the best bet. Official Sports is the official equipment supplier for referees for the United States Soccer Federation (USSF).
Black Shorts - Official Sports black shorts, or other solid black shorts. As weather gets (or remains) cold, black warm-up pants may be worn under the uniform shorts.
Black socks - Official Sports Referee Socks or other black athletic socks
Black Shoes, cleats, or turf shoes - WUSA will not enforce this part of the uniform rule. But keep in mind that if the referee wishes to move up a level (for example, from grade 8 to grade 7) the assessor will mark down any deviations from the uniform specification, including shoes that are not predominantly black.
Cold weather gear - gloves & hat may be worn due to low temperatures (or your parents tell you to).
