There are two types of Boy Scout uniforms that go by various names.  You may hear what members of the troop call a "Class A" uniform referred to as a "Field Uniform."  Likewise, a "Class B" uniform may be called an "Activity Uniform" by some.  The names may change once again with the newer "Centennial" uniforms.

Class "A" Uniform
This is worn for dress occasions; weekly Scout meetings, campfires, Boards of Review, Courts of Honor, during trip travel, Church, ceremonies, etc. The uniform items include the following:

• BSA Dress Shirt
• BSA Troop Neckerchief
• Troop Hat (optional)
• BSA T-shirt
• BSA Pants (long or short)
• BSA Socks
• BSA Belt
• Patches sewn on uniform (see inside cover of the Boy Scout Handbook for patch locations)
• Hiking Boots or other appropriate footwear (never open-toed shoes)

Class "B" Uniform
This is worn for daily routines during Scout functions, campouts, car washes, and any "work" type of Scout activity. Basically the Class "B" is a "fill-in" uniform when the Class "A" is not appropriate. The following are “Class B” uniform items:

• Troop or other BSA T-shirt
• BSA Pants (long or short)
• BSA Socks
• BSA Belt
• Hiking Boots or other appropriate footwear (never open-toed shoes)
• Troop 467 has developed a troop neckerchief, hat and T-shirt.  The patrol leader will decide if these are required for a particular meeting or event, or if others will be permitted.
