Uniforms

Sometimes it seems as much as the modernists argue against the whole concept of uniform, the fundamentals of how a school uniform can look good on your do show though such as short trousers and the V neck sweater revealing your tie.

While it is a pity turn over socks with coloured bands can be hard to find when  they match it is just amazing so are something I like to be put in to although many still hold to lace up shoes.

It is more possible to get a exact fit through lace tying than velcro having had both but for me the ability to fasten velcro myself is more of aid enabling greater indepedence of the sort where you can just "go out and play" without having to find someone to fasten your laces.

These days you can get footy boots that don't need tying too which would of helped no end back in the day.

 
Face it: You look smart in it, one reason I preferred the schools I attended that had them as somehow casual is seldom worn with any real sense of style.
