I honestly don't know of any male Dominicans who wear the habit (a very good sign of orthodoxy), but I know they still exist. You know what, you can call up the Monastery of the Heart of Jesus, which is an Order of Dominican Nuns who have a Dominican priest for their chaplain. You can probably talk to him, and I assume he's very faithful because he wears the full habit and the nuns themselves are very good. So that might be a good option.

I can't at the moment find their number, but Sr. Imelda is on AIM at ldominican if you want to ask her. If you're interested though, I will give you the number. God bless.

I know this priest (or have met him). He gave us a retreat. I have heard several talks given by him. His Order must be orthodox.

I also got to know the Mercederians in Philadelphia. They are orthodox also. They wear their habit all the time!!!

All of the Orders may not be orthodox (I don't know all of them!), but most of them should be!!!

As an Associate member of the Insitute of Religious life, I can tell you that all members are orthodox. It si part of the criteria for membership.
