Uniforms have become much more functional and colorful since the beginning and are now frequently blue, orange, red, or green, and shorts are replaced by long trousers in areas where the culture calls for modesty, and in winter weather. T-shirts and other more casual wear have also replaced the more formal [[button|button-up]] uniforms in many Scouting regions.

To show the unity of all Scouts, the World Membership Badge ([[World Crest]]) or another badge with a fleur-de-lis is a part of all uniforms. [[Neckerchief]]s and [[Woggle]]s (slides)  are still quite common, but some Scouting associations do not use them. Patches for leadership positions, ranks, special achievements, patrol- animals, colors or names, troop- or group- numbers or names, and country or regional affiliation are standard.
