Ideas from afar

Another warm day here.

An interesting picture that does go some way to answering what a modern day Scouts uniform could be had the changes of 1966/7 not gone ahead.

We have the traditional heavy double breast pocket with a to the elbow sleeve which has some space for badges coupled with just above the knee length green shorts not so far removed to that soldiers in warmer climates do wear.

The socks seem to be a cream white with traditional garters but red topped off by white trainers which I know will have the purists fuming but at least they are suitable for most outdoor activities.

It looks smart and distinctive which a uniform I feel needs to be  - it should turn heads - and practical
