Costume

Our costume comprises white long sleeved shirt, black knee breeches, white socks and black shoes. We wear a straw trilby hat decorated with flowers and/or badges etc. Our baldrick is green and gold with a narrow central red stripe, with a red badge on the front bearing a green "gingerbread" man (wide legged and eyeless) and a similar one on the back having a green number 1 (from our club of Origin). We also wear arm bands made of the same ribbon, and endeavour to have our bell pads decorated with red, green and gold ribbon.
