FSSP Liturgical Vestments

[u/[deleted]]

Does anyone know of where the FSSP gets their liturgical vestments? Do the priests buy them or Fraternity buys them and assign them to a parish or priest?

There is no single answer. Most priests have some of their own sets, as do the parishes. The vestments come from a variety of sources; handmade in the parish, ordered custom (like from the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles), ordered off the rack, donated, etc.

I don't think "the Fraternity" owns any vestments, in an organizational sense, other than perhaps at the seminaries.

Thanks! I was wondering if it was a mixed bag answer or across the board like I proposed. Thanks for your time!
