Brown Scapular – Our Lady of Mount Carmel & St. Simon Stock, Wool Blend 2"
The Brown Scapular is the most widely worn sacramental in the Church — a garment, not a charm, given by Our Lady to St. Simon Stock and carried by Carmelites for eight centuries. This one is made to be worn every day and not thought about: linen and wool blend, light enough that it disappears under a shirt.

Before you wear it: The Brown Scapular carries Our Lady's promises for those formally enrolled by a priest or deacon. Enrollment takes about a minute after Mass and only happens once in your life — your first scapular is blessed and invested, and every replacement after that you simply put on. Ask your parish priest. What is the Brown Scapular?
A gift for: Confirmation, First Communion, RCIA, July 16 (feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel), consecration to Mary, or anyone beginning a Marian devotion.
Care: Wool will wear out with daily use — that's expected. Replace it when it does; no re-enrollment needed. Do not machine wash.
FAQ
Do I need a priest to bless it? Your first Brown Scapular should be blessed and you should be enrolled by a priest or deacon. After that, replacements can be worn without a new blessing.
Is this real wool? Yes — a linen and wool blend. Wool content is what distinguishes a true Brown Scapular from a decorative one.
How do I wear it? One panel rests on the chest, one on the back, under clothing. Worn continuously, day and night.
What if it wears out? Replace it. The enrollment stays with you, not the cloth.
