Guide to Custom Education & Academic Staff Uniforms
Topics in this Education & Academic Staff Uniforms Buying Guide:
Many schools are opting to outfit their students (and staff) in fashion-forward uniforms and spiritwear apparel. We'll help you customize popular choices and trends for select stylish, custom apparel that your students and educators will enjoy wearing.
Uniform Tops: Polos, Dress Shirts, Sweaters & Blazers
School uniforms have been shown to reduce non-academic distractions, improve teacher-student communication and feelings of community, and reduce school violence and student behavioral problems. Create a more positive educational atmosphere in your school with custom uniforms.
PolosPolo shirts come in a variety of styles, colors and sizes, and are a great option for both male and female students. You can easily customize polos on the left and right chest areas as well as below the back collar. Choose from short sleeve, performance and long sleeve options for young adults and adults, and short and long sleeve options for younger students.
Dress ShirtsDress shirts offer a more sophisticated option for students and educators. Many schools select lightweight Oxford dress shirts. Made from woven cotton or cotton-blend fabric, Oxfords are extremely comfortable. Another popular dress shirt fabric is poplin, made from a medium to heavyweight-unbalanced plain weave.
Custom dress shirts are available in a wide variety of hues and patterns to help you showcase your school colors. Carefully consider your color and/or pattern choice to ensure your logo or customized design is clearly visible. We also offer several options in youth uniform shirts.
Sometimes, school can get messy. We carry stain resistant dress shirts that are machine washable, so students (and teachers!) can look their best despite art class mishaps or lunchroom spills. It is recommended to purchase 3 to 4 shirts for each student to allow for rotating options and backups in case of emergencies.
Sweaters & BlazersWhen the weather gets cooler, offer your students custom sweaters and blazers to keep them warm. Cardigans, pullovers, vests and blazers can give your uniform a more sophisticated look and help your students and staff stay warm in style!
Show Off Your School Spirit
The school year is full of many wonderful activities and events that students want to highlight or remember for years to come. Whether it's playing on a sports team, participating in a school fundraiser, or being a member in a great extracurricular activity, they want something to commemorate their experience and show off their school spirit. That's why we're highlighting the following customizable options.
Customizable School Spirit ApparelWe also offer plenty of outerwear options, from varsity jackets and rain jackets to fleece and sweats, that will look great customized for your school or group.
Decoration Options
Embroidery looks beautiful on everything from polos to blazers. It works well on thicker fabrics and can withstand almost anything your students put it through. Embroidery applique is also available for items like sweats. Print is an ideal choice for those with more intricate details in their designs.
