we are commanded not to alter the garment to suit the current styles in clothing. this i fear means that we wear it as is. it has been altered over the years to make certain allowances for comfort of wear.we should, as were told not be hacking parts off, rolling things up or doing anything that may be contarary to the instruction given at the temple and during interviews. dfrancis
