Selecting the right uniform supplier for your school, club, or organisation is an important decision — one that impacts not only appearance but also quality, comfort, and long-term value. At Leonard Hudson, we’ve been outfitting schools and institutions across the UK for over a century, and we know what makes a great partnership.
Here are the key factors to consider when choosing your next uniform partner 👇
1. Quality That Lasts
A uniform should stand up to daily wear and washing while maintaining its shape and colour. Look for suppliers who prioritise durable fabrics and high-quality stitching. At Leonard Hudson, we only use trusted materials and strict quality checks to ensure our garments last — from blazers and polos to ties and badges.
2. Consistency in Supply
Few things are more frustrating than running out of key uniform items at the start of term. A reliable supplier will offer consistent stock levels and clear lead times. Our UK-based production and warehousing means we can respond quickly to demand, helping schools avoid unnecessary delays.
3. Flexibility & Customisation
Every school and organisation is unique. Whether you need embroidered logos, custom colors, or bespoke tie designs, flexibility is key. We offer a fully bespoke service, from personalised ties and badges to branded blazers and PE kits, ensuring your uniform truly represents your identity.
4. Competitive & Transparent Pricing
Uniforms shouldn’t break the bank — for schools or for parents. A good supplier will offer clear pricing with no hidden costs. Leonard Hudson focuses on value without compromise, helping you keep prices affordable while maintaining the highest standards.
5. Easy Ordering & Parent Support
The best partnerships make ordering stress-free. Whether you prefer bulk school ordering or our convenient direct-to-parent online system, we make it simple to manage uniforms year-round. Parents can order directly from our website, freeing up valuable school time and ensuring every child gets the right size, on time.
6. Proven Experience
With over 150 years of expertise in tailoring and schoolwear, Leonard Hudson brings tradition, trust, and innovation together. Our history means we understand schools’ needs — and how to evolve with them.
