To ask where to find cotton school uniforms?

Sorry for AIBU but I wasn't quite sure where else to post as I'm against a clock here for term starting!

My DS starts reception next month and due to some family illnesses which have meant we've not been based at home for a few weeks, I'm completely behind in ordering school uniform.

I've just been trying to order online to find all school trousers now seem to be covered in teflon. I'm not usually fussy but my DS hates anything 'scratchy' so I always try to find clothes that are high in cotton.

I am struggling with trousers! It might just be that I've left it so late but can anyone recommend somewhere to get school trousers that are cotton and not viscose / polyester?

I've managed to find t shirts/ sweat shirt etc but trousers all seem to be covered in teflon!

Thanks so much!

Having recently had a much longer and more detailed conversation about school wear with a colleague than I ever thought, as a childfree person, that I’d ever have - Eczema Clothing and By Nature might be a good shout. 100% cotton with no treatments or chemical washes.

Mine always wear cotton joggers for primary school. Slim fit, school grey. From H&M or M&S. 7+ years and no issues at school.

By no issues I meant no issues with school uniform "rules"
