Figure 1.--Here we see two Canadian brothers sporting their new Cub unifirns which appear to have been Christmas presents, we think in the early 1960s. We at firt assumed thevboys were wearing shiers, but they look to be humoers (sweaters). Mother seems to have purchases large sizes that they could wear for some time. We at first thought they were Anericam Cubs, but the boys are from Toranto..

Available images show Canadian Cubs wearing uniform rather like American Cubs. We see dark capsm chirts, and pants. The color is not clear as we only have black and white photographs, but itbooks like thedark blue color that American boys wore. We see caps with what looks like yellow piping. Wesee both short amd long sleeve shirts, but without the piping of Amerivan Cub unitorms. The same is true of the pants. As far aswe camntell biys all wore short pants with knee socks. The knee socks did bot have the tellow bands that Anerican cub uniforms had. Most Amerivan Cubs wore long pants, but there was a short ponts alternative that some boys wore. Like Engkish Wilf Cubs, many Canafian boys wore in uniform jersey (sweater). The Canadian Cub jersey was changed from green to grey to make it more distinctiveb(1965). This was the same year that the Canadian flag was changed, but the green peaked cap remained. The general cut of the uniform remaiedn similar to the British one. Badges were worn on the jersey aswas the new Canadian flag. .
