The uniform is an important part of the Scouting program. It identifies the boys and adults with Cubs and gives them a sense of belonging to the den, the pack, and the Boy Scouts of America. Most boys enjoy wearing their Cub Scout uniform. They should wear it to all den meetings, pack meetings, and special pack activities.

The official Bear Cub uniform is the complete blue Cub Scout uniform with identifiable and appropriate Bear Cub insignia. The Cub den leader wears the official Cub Scout leader uniform, the Cub cap, and the Cub leader neckerchief.
