shortridge 184 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I found it amusing that the bobblehead of the National OA Chief is wearing non-uniform pants. http://tradingpost.oa-bsa.org/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=2009-52 Not much else to say on that topic.

John-in-KC 311 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Actually, he looks like he's wearing the office wool slacks that many Professionals wear... Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle92 110 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I also don't think they look like uniform pants. Wrong color IMHO. then again the lightin inthe photo could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
shortridge 184 Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 I also was wondering what the little blue knot was. Doesn't look like any I know. Not to come across like a critic... I do think it's a fun idea. Odd why they wouldn't do one of the CSE, though... ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh 3452 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 The yellow/gold buttons aren't the regulation dark brown either Stosh Link to post Share on other sites
eaglescout1996 10 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I was at our Council Commissioners Conference this weekend, and saw one of the professional staff members wearing a pair of the wool slacks. I also own a pair of the wool blend shorts (which I purchased during the 70% off sale), and have to say that the slacks and shorts are a much lighter shade of "green", almost greyish in color. I also have a couple pairs of the 100% cotton slacks, that I've worn with my cotton shirt, and for whatever reason, they're a much darker shad of "green" than the blend pants with the "cargo" pockets.

AlFansome 10 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 The little blue knot on the bobblehead is supposed to be purple ... http://www.oa-bsa.org/events/n2009/live/sat/morn/National_Chief.jpg Link to post Share on other sites
shortridge 184 Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 Ah - the religious knot. That makes much more sense than Sea Badge, which was the only thing I could come up with. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
BornInThe60s 10 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I was at NOAC, and the National Chief and Vice-Chief were wearing the wool slacks just about every time I saw them. I'm beginning to think that gold loops and wool slacks are sold as a set. I very rarely see a troop or district level Scouter wearing them. Link to post Share on other sites
