The Third Order Franciscans Shall Dress In Humble, Undyed Cloth

 
 (Photo of the Piccoli VV in Assisi, Italy)
 
"The men belonging to this brotherhood (Third Order of Franciscans) shall dress... in humble, undyed cloth, the price of which is not to exceed six Ravenna soldi *  en ell, unless evident and necessary cause a temporary dispensation be given.

The sisters in turn shall wear an outer garment and tunic made of cloth of the same price and humble quality"...

Saint Francis of Assisi
FIRST RULE OF THE THIRD ORDER of 1221 A.D.
 
 *  Six Ravenna soldi was the equivalent of $5.29 United States in American money in January 2012
