Tallis:[1] It is customary for the Sandek to wear a Tallis. [This was likewise the custom of the Rebbe Rayatz and Rebbe, who wore a Tallis upon being honored with Sandakaus.[2] According to Chabad custom, the Tallis is worn without a blessing if one had it in mind at the time of the wearing by Shacharis to also include the wearing of the Tallis by the Bris.[3]] On Tisha b’Av, if the Bris is taking place in the morning then a Tallis is not to be worn, although one is not to protest against one who does so.
