Shirt and Ink Colors for Cub Scout Packs
It can be challenging to pick colors over the internet because of monitor variables, lighting and glare.
Some color combinations can strain your eyes to look at.
The colors below reference our 100% cotton T-shirt but apply to most garment types.
When it comes to picking embroidery thread colors, just specify what you like and we will take care of choosing the right color. With the concern about the colors not looking right on a screen, here is our list of thread colors
What shirt colors correspond to the traditional Cub Scout colors?
Navy Blue
Usually looks Black on most phone and monitors. Navy is closest to the color of a New Cub Scout uniform. Like the uniform, after a few washings the color becomes more blue.
Royal Blue
Royal is the blue in the Cub Scout logo and the American Flag.
Gold
Athletic Gold color thats a bit deeper than the yellows used in Cub Scouting. In general this gold looks the best.
Daisy or Lemon Yellow
Yellow that matches the Cub Scout logo and many Cub Scout elements. As a shirt color, it can be a bit harsh but many packs are happy with it.Need a change? Here are two more good colors for pack t-shirts!
Iris Blue
Iris blue is a lighter Royal Blue. Very close to the background of the Bobcat rank badge.
Carolina Blue
Carolina Blue is a great choice if your looking for a light blue thats not a baby blue.What colors are Packs most disappointed in?
Sapphire Blue
Many packs order this thinking is Royal Blue. Sapphire is more like a deep turquoise blue color. It has a tropical feel.
Indigo Blue
Indigo Blue is like a grayish washed out Navy Blue. Often mistaken for Navy on monitors since Navy appears like black.What ink colors are recommended for packs?

Glow Ink
Hardest ink to print, either it looks motley during the day and glows great OR looks great during the day but minimal glow.
Navy Ink
Often looks like black ink on all but the lightest shirts. Same goes for Dark Chocolate and Forest Green Inks
Lemon Yellow Ink
This ink sometimes lets shirt color come through. It ends up looks too light on many shirt colors.
