The most popular manufacturers of school uniforms
Many models presented on the Russian market cannot be called qualitative. They are made of synthetic, poorly breathing fabrics, wear out quickly and have a boring design. Some of them even cause an allergic reaction in a child - a rash on the skin and poor health.
Therefore, instead of buying school uniform of unknown firms (especially Chinese), it is better to choose products from proven Russian manufacturers:
-
Skylake;
-
Gulliver;
-
OLMI;
-
Aurora;
-
Silver Spoon;
-
Noble People.
The products of the above brands are of good quality and tailoring. Before entering the market, it undergoes hygienic and sanitary certification and is safe for the health of the child.
What to look for when choosing a school uniform
Material
School uniform should consist of the maximum amount of natural fabrics. Such materials have high strength, softness and hygroscopicity, they are well breathable, creating an optimal microclimate for the child. Therefore, the student feels quite comfortable and confident, less sweating. For the warm season, it is recommended to use linen and cotton products, and for winter and cold autumn - woolen models.
However, it will be very difficult for you to find a school uniform 100% made of natural fabric. Usually synthetic fibers are added to the structure of natural materials. This increases the service life of the product, making it more durable, cheaper and less demanding in the care. Admissible is the addition of 55% synthetics to the costume fabric and 35% - to shirts, blouses. If the amount of synthetic fibers in the composition exceeds these values, clothing is no longer safe and comfortable for the child.
Lining in school uniform in contact with the skin of the child should be made only from natural materials.
Stitches and hardware
Remember that a child at recess, as well as before and after school, will actively move, and younger students generally run after each other and show to friends recently learned fighting techniques or other wonders of flexibility. Such a “life” will be able to withstand only a quality product. Therefore, before you buy, be sure to check the quality of the external and internal seams, whether the threads are sticking out, the fittings and the lining are well sewn.
Cut
Make sure that the child’s clothes do not sting, do not squeeze the stomach, hands and feet. Such products will interfere with normal blood circulation, hamper breathing, preventing the brain from being saturated with oxygen, and therefore lead to a decrease in concentration and attention. If the pants or skirt are tightly pulled together, the child may have problems with the stomach and intestines. In addition, he may disrupt heat metabolism and develop allergies.
Colour
Bright colors in school uniform are not allowed.Products must be made in neutral colors. It is best to choose the form, aged in pastel, gray, dark green or blue, burgundy shades.
Tips for choosing a form for the student
-
Buy form after fitting. The child must approve his new clothes, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable throughout the school year. Make sure that the form is not only for him, but it is still comfortable to walk, run, bend down and sit down.
-
Try to choose clothes in size. A new form of “growth” will look ridiculous on a child, and a year later - worn.
-
Ensure that the product does not have a pungent odor, which may indicate use in the production of hazardous chemical dyes.
-
Choose a few clothes. For example, for a girl you will need to buy two – three blouses for every day, a sundress or dress, two pairs of trousers, a skirt and one elegant blouse. For a boy, it is advisable to purchase several pairs of trousers, one jacket and vest, a pair of shirts for every day and at least one solemn shirt.
