Remove the collar from the uniform?

[OzarksOsage]

Thanks for the lively discussion. I also agree that the current neckerchiefs seem a tad small (short) at least when worn under a collar. Or maybe it's my neck that's bigger. The current standard issue neckerchief slides are almost useless--each boy in my den has lost his at least once, and some poor little guys seems to lose theirs each and every week. When I compared a new slide with a vintage slide, I discovered that they literally "don't make them like they used to." The leather arrowhead neckerchief slide kits do result in slides that don't fall off. Around here (St. Louis) neckerchiefs seem to be making a comeback. I think I'll go ahead and remove the collar from one of my uniform shirts and see if I can start a new trend.
