Choosing a school uniform manufacturer
Parents notice when a uniform pills, fades or splits at the knee in its first term. Choose fabrics that stand up to daily wear and washing, and ask to see samples that have been through a few washes.
Consistency across years matters just as much. A crest that changes size or a shade of blue that drifts between orders makes a school look disorganised. Make sure your manufacturer keeps your spec, crest file and gold samples on file.
Finally, think beyond the core uniform. PE kits, house colours, sports team kits and leavers' hoodies can all come from the same supplier, with the same crest and colours.
Questions to ask any manufacturer
- Which fabrics survive daily wear and washing?
- What size range can you grade?
- Will the crest look the same on every size?
- Can you make PE and sports kits too?
- How do term-by-term reorders work?
