Unique Norms for the Ultimate Uniforms

In our last blog, we came to a conclusion on the question – Do we really need uniforms?

It was and is proven that uniforms are essential. But every essential has some essential characteristics, isn’t it?

After centuries of Solapur leading the textile, garment and uniforms industry, our manufacturers unanimously reached 5 essentials that make the perfect uniforms.

We call it the “Unique Norms for the Ultimate Uniforms” checklist.

Here are 5 things you should NEVER ignore while choosing uniforms for your staff, students or team.

1 - Is the fabric fit for the purpose?

The colour, measurements, stitch, and all other aspects are secondary to the foundation of every uniform- The Fabric!

A choice of fabric can make or break productivity. Let us tell you how-

The wrong fabrics can cause irritation, sweating, rashes, and in worst cases, skin ailments, and other body problems due to excess accumulation of heat. Hence choosing the right fabric is of utmost importance.

Which one suits the best, you’d ask?

We have you covered. The expert manufacturers’ squad at Solapur Uniform Hub suggests the three best fabrics for uniforms-

• Cotton- For being breathable, summer friendly, and light on the body.
• Polyester- For its durability and long-lasting properties, for its ability to keep the skin drawn away from moisture and its usefulness in making athletic apparels.
• Polyester Blends- A blend of polyester and cotton makes the fabric but comfortable and long-lasting. Another preferred choice is the poplin fabric that is used widely in the manufacture of uniforms for its durability, quality and comfort.

So pick your fabric wisely to avoid unnecessary hassle at work!

2 - Is the fit fabricated properly?

Well, don’t confuse this with the first question! A fabric may be fit for the purpose but if it is not fabricated or manufactured in the perfectly fitted manner, then the perfect uniform goes for a toss.

Hence the fit needs to be perfect to its measurements, such that it not only keeps the wearer at ease and comfort while doing the job, but also sustains the physical movements involved in the profession.

A terribly tailor-made uniform is as useful for you as a fork is for having soup!

So be sure that your uniforms aren’t garment pieces that can be prone to tearing due to faulty fabrication.

3 - Colours speak louder than most things-

Colours evoke emotions, feelings and even affect efficiency and productivity. Colour psychology is for real. It affects brand image, brand reach, consumer reactions, eventually having a result on sales, productivity and even energy levels.

Don’t most of us choose lighter colours while visiting a friend at the hospital and richer hues while going for fancy dos?

Choosing the right colours for uniforms is crucial to attain the right atmosphere at work. The common examples of colours affecting psychology are-

Red for optimism, power, appetite, and attention -

• Blue for trust, relaxation, and, reliability
• Green for growth and development
• Yellow for enthusiasm and creativity
• Orange for affordability and adventure
• Pink for care and nurturing
• Black for security and authority
• White for efficiency, hygiene, and purity

This way, every uniform must have a colour suitable for the job and its nature.

4 - Are all the efforts resulting in the wearer’s comfort?

If choosing the right fabric, colour and tailoring don’t result in a comfortable uniform, all the efforts are in vain. A uniform must primarily be comfortable for the wearer in terms of fit, fabric and colour so that he is able to fulfill his duties effectively.

Wisely said by someone- “Clothes won’t change the world, the people who wear them will.” can be rightly applied to the world of uniforms.

So ensure that your uniforms are comfortable so that your team can do wonders!

5 - Can your manufacturer live up to these 4 essentials?

The last but the most unique norm for the ultimate uniforms is to find a uniform manufacturer  who understands your needs, is known to every minute detailing of uniforms and gives a product that is worth every penny and serves the purpose.
