Scouts wearing the pants during the 2013 Memorial Day Parade
The uniform Scout Pants of Paoli 1 are the new "Centennial Canvas Convertible Pants" available from the Scout Shop. These pants are a two-thirds cotton/one-third canvas material and are very different from the older style pants. The pants are lighter, include cargo style pockets, a more elastic waistband, and are also convertible pants which can change from long pants to shorts in seconds once the bottoms are zipped off. They are meant to be wrinkle free and also able to endure the elements.
