j2huggies Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've heard two different things about the red loops, that they are no longer authorized, and that they can be worn as long as you have the old uniforms... what is the requirement?

Stosh Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 It's supposed to be red for Cubs and green for Boys in the new uniform. I just started a new troop and for some reason the boys voted to go with the red. Stosh Correction: Blue loops for adults, red/white numbers, Otherwise for Boys who use red/white numbers they use red loops. For those going with green loops, it's green/tan numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j2huggies Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 I can get the red off eBay and both of my shirts are the old LaRenta shirts (same with my pants). I asked because aside from being a new UC, I need to figure if I am doing Boy or Cub Scout as an Adult Leader (waiting for some emails back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They interchange rather quickly. That's what I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwazse Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 This is one of those things that if it bugs the boys, we'd try to come to a consensus. If not, we'll go off and fry bigger fish. I haven't bought a new uni yet, so I'm sticking with red for my ASM uni. When that one explodes I'll probably just wear venturing shirts and everyone will have to live with a different shade of green. In general, your unit uniform should match the style of your unit. Your district uniform is a different animal! District/council shoulder loops are silver. Not sure how well that applies to unit commissioners. But, in my opinion, if you get assigned to a Pack, a Troop, and a Crew, wearing silver sure beats swapping between three colors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j2huggies Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 I wear silver for UC, but I have a shirt for that duty and a separate shirt for Troop/Pack duty (haven't joined one yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
