Bottle green uniform. Is Asda discontinuing? Where do you buy yours?

[brightpompoms]

I've summed it up in the title. I've noticed Asda is out of stock of all but one size of bottle green polo shirts.

Does anyone know if they are discontinuing that range? Where do you get your uniform online as we live in a town with no shops that sell clothes?

Bump

Looks like Sainsbury Tu have them in some sizes, and M&S have two packs in all primary sizes.

Otherwise I think it's Amazon or Ebay.

Sainsburys usually has a huge range of coloured polo shirts in stock but it might be a bit early yet. I usually buy a few different ones for my son who loves a collar on his T-shirts as well as his school blue ones.

I discovered a couple of years ago that in some stores the local manager has no discretion over the uniform colours that are sent to them. In our town we have a large Morrisons which has a big uniform section. The three closest primary schools (all big, 3 form) wear bottle green. One is virtually next door to the store. There’s then a couple more slightly further out which wear royal blue. Our Morrisons continuously stocks only red and navy. It drives me nuts and the staff hate being asked constantly if they have green! They could be selling so much more if they stocked green. One benefit is I always stock up on the navy for my SIL when huge amounts of it gets put on sale each year.

John Lewis online have bottle green uniform items including jumpers, cardigans, tights, hair bows and currently some blazers are reduced - from 15.00 for the smaller sizes. Home delivery or you can collect from Waitrose.

Try googling it 🤷‍♀️

M&S and Tu have them in stock.

One of the ASDA schoolwear merchandisers here.

Sorry for the limited availability on these. Sales outperformed forecast, and the stock was on the water before we could do anything about it. There is a container being receipted this morning with bottle green polos on, they should be available on the website within 2-3 days.

Wow! That's the power of Mumsnet. A direct answer from the ideal person.
