WHY?
I am not Catholic. I did once work with a guy who was active in the K of C. He was also a friend.
I like the old one much better. The new one looks like a boys school uniform.
I need a bigger picture before I can judge ...
No sword? No Baldric?
The sword will replaced with a rainbow flag.
I’m a 4th Degree. Knights are supposed to look like Knights and not retired French paratroopers. The sword was great. All Knights for Christ have had a sword. I see no way a sword can be part of this very plain looking suit. I wonder how long it’ll be before the Swiss Guard looks like this because this uniform change smacks of Pope Francis. He despises pomp and tradition.
Stinks on ice - a poor imitation of the Army Blue uniform.
Although I see a (possibly lucrative)future in teaching the proper way to shape and wear a beret...bad enough when soldiers of various ranks are lazy about it.
The Kingfish himself.
Knights in my wife’s south Jersey parish got the word - not at all happy about it - the traditional uniforms are quite decorative and ornate and it really can be an impressive scene to see a group of Knights in uniform taking part in any service or activity. Uniforms can cost over a thousand dollars and several local members of the Knights just bought new ones which they pay for themselves - they’re working class guys and don’t have money to burn - “the people who made this decision don’t care what it costs us, they’re big shots with a lot of money and can afford it themselves” was one reaction......
School boy ghey!
