Sales of uniform have moved out of the department store and into the local community as schools seek partnerships with independent garment decorators and embroiderers to source suitable, affordable, and cost effective schoolwear.

The mid season launch of Jerzees 875B created quite a stir. A reversible jacket with polyester outer shell and fleece inner, it features funky striped reflective materials on both surfaces and all zip tags. This jacket is available in six core school colours - black, bottle green, bright royal, burgundy, classic red and french navy and is available in sizes from S - 4XL (age 3-4 years to 15-16 years).

Another big hit this year has been Regatta’s TRA900 Term-Time Reversible Jacket. A Hydrofort Polyester outer and 200 series fleece inner the jacket also features reflective trim on both sides and there is press stud embroidery access at the hem.

Visibility to and from school is a serious issue and for maximum effect Result has produced the R212J Safety Tabard. Designed to be worn over garments, it uses 3M tap and conforms to 89/686/EEC directive and EN1150 Specification, Class 1 approved.
