Cadet Turnout

Turnout is the term used to describe the cadet uniform worn at parade. Appearance is an extremely important part of the cadet lifestyle. One of the responsibilities of cadets is to look smart at all times. Cadets wear their uniform with pride and a high shine on your ATC and CCF parade shoes will never hinder you success in your squadron and is actively encouraged. Cadet shoes are used by cadets A.T.C and the C.C.F.

Top Tips for Shoe care.

 The cadet Parade shoes should be polished to a high standard and cadets take great pride in this:

  • Use plain shoe polish instead of parade gloss. This method does require a little bit more elbow grease, but the deeper shine on your parade shoes as a result is worth the effort.
  • Never leave your ATC or CCF  shoes in direct sunlight, as it will damage the shine.
  • Running your ATC or CCF shoes under ice cold water and rubbing with cotton wool will remove any smears left on them from polishing.
