When I was in the East as Master in 2000, my stance was to just get members to lodge. Any restrictions on "Proper" dress has the possibilities to drive more away to bring them in.

I would rather have quantiy, members attending for the fellowship of the craft, for in the numbers you the quality.
There are many rural lodges all over North America where farmers, lumberjacks and miners head to lodge straight from work. Dirt, boots and all.
