One size run, one crest, one less thing to chase next term
School uniforms are a restocking problem disguised as a clothing order. New staff arrive in September, Year 7 grows out of everything by Easter, and the crest has to look identical on a 4XS and an adult 3XL.
Built around the school calendar
We keep youth grading down to 4XS–M (120–160 cm) and adult runs through S–5XL, so one order can cover students, teaching staff and front-office team without splitting across two suppliers. Everything ships on one invoice and one delivery.
The crest is digitised once and the placement is written on the job card. A small crest on a 4XS chest needs a different stitch file from the same crest on a 3XL — if a supplier scales one file across every size, the small ones fill in and the large ones look lost. We keep separate files for the size blocks.
For annual reorders we archive the signed colour swatch for 24 months under your school name and colour code. Your business manager may change, our salesperson may change, but the reference does not. Bulk is checked against it under D65 light before dispatch.
What we need from a school to quote
| Item | What to send | Why we ask |
|---|---|---|
| Size breakdown | Counts per size, split student / staff | Determines the cut plan and whether both size blocks need separate artwork |
| Crest artwork | Vector file preferred, or a clean high-res image | Fine detail may need a woven badge instead of embroidery |
| Colours | One or two brand colours | Cotton and polyester need separate lab dips for the same reference |
| Delivery date | Term start or event date | Production is quoted from artwork approval, not from the first email |

Check stock & priceOn colour: we will not promise that a reorder is indistinguishable from last year's batch. Dye lots, finishing and washing all shift colour. We do promise an archived signed swatch, a D65 check against it, and re-dyeing below grey scale 4. Light colours show more variation than dark ones; we will flag that before you place a large order.
School questions
Can students and staff be on one order?
Yes. Youth 4XS–M and adult S–5XL are graded in the same programme, so the crest, colour and delivery stay consistent. We will ask for the size breakdown before cutting so each block gets the right artwork scale.
Ask us on WhatsAppDo you keep our crest on file?
We keep the digitised embroidery file and the placement record against your school name. That means a top-up order does not start with another round of artwork approval unless you change the design.
Ask us on WhatsAppWhat happens if a student joins mid-year?
Custom top-ups start at 5 pieces. For very small quantities, a stock blank from our 2-piece range with a locally applied badge is often faster — we will tell you which route is cheaper rather than pushing the bigger order.
Ask us on WhatsAppTell us the term date. We will work backwards.
Send approximate quantities across adult and youth sizes and we will reply with a price and a production slot.
