Once your Scout is a Webelo (short for "we be loyal"), they begin to phase into the final uniform that lasts through BSA Scouts.
NOTE: This brown shirt MUST be adopted by the time Scouts begin their time within the Arrow of Light (AoL) den!
TIPS for wearing the Class A uniform:
Keep the uniform clean and in good repair; it is sturdy, machine-washable, and will last for years with proper care
Wear the complete uniform; a Cub Scout wearing a uniform with parts missing is not in uniform
DO NOT wear non-BSA items - badges, awards, or insignia - on the Cub Scout uniform or make alterations to the uniform or insignia
DO NOT mix uniform parts with non-uniform clothing, such as wearing a uniform cap with a Phillies shirt or wearing the uniform shirt with jeans; the uniform should be treated as a unit, worn in its entirety or not at all
Here are examples of when Class B is best:
At Den meetings
Playing sports
Cleaning up
Going to camp
Participating in other physical activities
Showing Scout pride at school
And any place where we don't need to feel like we're "official"
You can purchase many of the Class B items - and help support our Pack - by visiting the Pack 196 store.
