Talk:Clerical collar

Dog Collar

What is being referred to as a dog collar is much older than the detachable tab collar invented in the 1800's. This article lumps it in with this modern detachable collar. In this portrait from 1766 you can clearly see a full ring collar. This older style which is often used in the Anglican church is simply a small (narrow) starched collar, though now many are made from plastic. Spicer5 (talk) 22:58, 10 August 2018 (UTC)-

Smith

It looks to me rather as though Smith put his own picture here (replacing that of Griswold) and also wrote articles about himself and his association. I know nothing of this association but promotion of one's own outfit is forbidden on Wikipedia.--PeterR 12:21, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Anyway, the image was copyrighted and isn't justifiably fair use on this page, so I deleted it. —Angr 06:46, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

First link.

FYI, the first link appears to be broken. 68.116.99.152 (talk) 21:47, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Use ... Denominations

This whole section needs documentation. Also, the claim about Presbyterians is wrong: some use collars, but many do not (using a robe and stole for services, over regular "dressy" clothes). Also, when a collar (&c.) is worn will differ among denominations: R.C. and Anglican will wear it more; Presbyterians, e.g., will restrict it to services.

Good luck. ABS (talk) 17:02, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Ancient protestant tradition

That then spread to the Catholics and Orthodox? Haw haw haw. Let's see some real scholarship in this article. Rwflammang (talk) 23:40, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

New Clerical Collar Possibilities

No discussion of Anglican vs. Roman collars (tab vs. all around), or clergy shirts designed for women, or the possibilities of colors other than black? White, grays and blues are all becoming normal among Protestants who use the collar, and many other colors are available. JollyJeanGiant (talk) 00:37, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Women wear collars too

Ordained women in many Christian traditions use a clerical collar. This should be mentioned and pictures added for a more accurate and inclusive representation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:240:C401:137D:6C61:CB01:73E3:27BA (talk) 23:49, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Lutheranism outside Sweden

The added photos of the Lutheran clergy suggest as if Lutheranism is limited to just Sweden. Nothing can be further from the truth! One can find Lutheran churches even in Indonesia. The photos of the Lutheran clergy should be more representative. Vulc (talk) 00:40, 25 November 2018 (UTC)

Predecessors

This article currently states that the collar was invented in 1865. I'm wondering about it's relationship to possible antecedents and predecessors, eg. Portrait of a Clergyman (de Ville), Religious habit#Priests, or Oratory of Saint Philip Neri#Habit. Daask (talk) 17:34, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
