Webelos Scouts |

- Shirt: Webelos Scouts may choose to wear either the
blue Webelos uniform based on the Cub Scout uniform or the tan/olive

the Webelos neckerchief (plaid with the Webelos emblem), Webelos
neckerchief slide (handmade slides are also acceptable), Webelos cap,
and Webelos belt buckle. Note that the Webelos belt
buckle will fit either the blue or the olive belt, but the belt loop

Badges and Insignia
|
|
|
- When a boy first joins Cub Scouting, his uniform will display only
those badges that identify his status: the World Crest, which shows him
to be a member of the worldwide Scouting movement; the national flag;
his council strip; his pack number; and his den number.
- As he progresses, the Cub Scout will earn badges, pins, medals, and
other insignia that tell of his accomplishments in Scouting. These items
should be added to the uniform only after they have been earned.
- For guidance on the proper placement of all badges and insignia,
check your Cub Scout book, see
the BSA's online
Insignia Guide
or download the BSA
uniform
inspection sheet.
