The Scouts BSA has always been about fostering personal growth, leadership skills, and outdoor adventures. For Scouts and Adult Leaders, the uniform is an integral part of their identity and experience. In 2023, Scouts BSA is taking a HUGE step forward with the introduction of the new Performance Uniform Shirts and Shorts. These innovative (and super-breathable) garments are set to redefine the way Scouts and Leaders approach their uniform with a blend of style and functionality that's bound to impress! 

The new Performance Uniform Shirts are designed to meet the demands of modern Scouting. Crafted from a unique blend of 93% polyester and 7% elastane, these shirts offer an exceptional level of comfort and flexibility. Whether you're navigating challenging trails or engaging in leadership activities, these shirts have you covered.

One of the standout features of these shirts is their antimicrobial properties. This means that they actively resist the growth of bacteria and odor, ensuring that you can stay fresh even during the most physically demanding activities. Scouts and Leaders can now focus on their adventures without worrying about unpleasant odors.

The moisture-wicking and quick-dry features are crucial for staying comfortable in various weather conditions. Whether you're caught in a sudden downpour or sweating it out during a summer hike, these shirts will keep you dry and comfortable.

Comfort Stretch is another feature that's hard to overlook. It allows for unrestricted movement, making these shirts ideal for the dynamic and physically active lifestyle that scouting promotes. The punched back and back vent enhance ventilation, ensuring that you stay cool even in hot and humid conditions.

On the practical side, these shirts come equipped with a left pocket pen/pencil holder and a hidden zippered pocket on the right chest. These additional features are perfect for carrying essential items during your adventures.

The Performance Uniform Shorts are designed to complement the shirts, offering a complete uniform solution that's both stylish and practical. Made from a blend of 92% polyester and 8% spandex, these shorts offer superior comfort and flexibility.

Scouts and Leaders can enjoy the sun without worrying about harmful UV rays, thanks to the UPF 40+ rating that provides protection against the sun's harmful rays.

The Comfort Stretch feature ensures that you can move freely and comfortably during all your scouting activities. Whether you're bending, stretching, or hiking, these shorts move with you.

Moisture-wicking and quick-dry properties ensure that you stay dry and comfortable, even in challenging weather conditions. No more soggy, uncomfortable shorts during your camping trips.

When it comes to storage, these shorts have you covered. With two knife pockets, two thigh pockets with hidden Velcro closures, a left thigh hidden zippered pocket, and two hidden back pockets with zipper closures, you'll have ample space to carry all your essentials.

Additionally, a tool loop sewn on the front belt loop offers a convenient spot to secure small tools or accessories, making these shorts incredibly practical for a wide range of outdoor activities.

The new Scouts BSA Performance Uniform Shirts and Shorts are a testament to the organization's commitment to providing Scouts and Leaders with a uniform that not only looks great but also enhances their outdoor experience. These performance garments combine style with innovative features that cater to the needs of modern scouts, ensuring that they are well-equipped for their adventures while looking sharp in their uniforms. Whether you're hiking, camping, or engaging in leadership activities, these new performance uniforms are set to become an essential part of your Scouting journey.
