Thank you for an interesting and helpful article. I believe that buying school uniforms made in the US will greatly help the economy and manufacturers in the states.
We had uniforms for our school system for a little bit. I longed to wear whatever I wanted but once they changed it I wished we had uniforms again!
I’m not a huge fan of school uniforms, but some schools do require very strict dress codes that are basically uniforms. My niece’s middle school does.
Most of the garments offered by Dennis Uniforms are manufactured out of The USA. Their main office is in Portland, Oregon and their plaids are manufactured there. But, their polos and bottoms are outsourced out of the country. Also, they outsource their embroidery services to other countries, as well.

Please join me in asking Dennis to more honestly promote its products since very few are made in the USA (as their website loudly and proudly proclaims).
My girls’ school requires uniforms and the first question I asked was where are the uniforms manufactured. They will wear the plaid and are made in USA. I want Dennis to manufacture all garments in the USA. We need US made consumer products. I want jobs back in the US and will pay more. It is a big picture/longevity mentality that I have for our beautiful and free country.
Dennis Uniforms carries SOME items made in the USA. I was just in their retail store today and could not find a pair of pants that was made in the USA. Sadly, most are made in Nicaragua and Vietnam. If they are so proud of their made in the USA label, they need to advertise on their website which items are made in the USA and which one’s are not. That way consumers can make an educated purchase.
You are absolutely right. Most companies may offer 1 or 2 items but most are imported goods. try Sew Perfect Uniforms in Los Angeles.
All our plaids(35+) are made here . How do i know ? I own the comapny.
when i was in school i always wished we would go to wearing uniforms, now i homeschool my own kids so its not a concern for them
I absolutely love that my kids wear school uniforms. It makes life so easy!!
