Has anyone used this service and can comment on the quality of the cardigans? Just been to the local uniform shop amd they only stock school jumpers and polo shirts with my childs school logo, no cardigans!

There is another shop I cam try but I've been told the quality isn't as good as the shop I went to today so reluctant to spend money there.....

Thanks

Yes we have used them. I thought they were fine. They washed well too. I think the quality is better from the school shop, (they felt thicker), but for the price the tesco ones were good.

If it's the sweatshirt style ones, as opposed to the woollen ones, I've been buying them (both sweatshirts and cardigans) for DC for years. They've lasted a whole year no problem, usually washed in average at least 3 times a week. DD's cardigan is looking a little sorry for itself right now, but it's done 2 years, so no complaints from me! Yes they are quite thin but schools are hot places so that's a positive IMO.

My youngest had his uniform from Tesco last summer holidays and I had replaced the lot from the uniform shop by Christmas. It was shocking how bad it washed. Hems came undone stretched and miss shaped. Shocking. Won't be trying again.

I don't think I will get everything from Tesco just specifically the cardigan as they offer an embroidery service for her school...I can't get a cardigan from the uniform shop with a logo on just a jumper! Daft if you ask me, can't understand why they offer everything but the cardigan with a logo!

The sweatshirt material cardigans are ok. The knitted ones shrink a bit and get bit stiff but are better than they were a year ago. The v-neck knitted jumpers and polo shirts are dreadful !

Ok thanks for the heads up 👍I think I will take a chance on a sweatshirt material cardigan xx
