How do I choose the right size for?

Here at Ackermans, we know that children develop differently-so finding the right fit shouldn't be an estimate. That's why we recommend taking your child's measurements of their chest, waist, hips and height, and comparing it to our easy-to-follow size guide typically on our garment labels. That way, you ensure a better fit, so your child feels comfortable and confident from the start. Whether you're buying shirts, or trousers, we make sizing easier. (If this is for Winter, please remove skirts as we do not stock it in Winter)

Do I need to size up for growing children?

Yes, and many parents do. Sizing up is a great way to get more wear out of each item-especially with growing children. At Ackermans, many of our school trousers have flexi-length hems so you get flexibility, a better fit now, and some leeway later. It's all part of our focus on value and convenience for parents.

Are school uniforms standardized in South Africa?

Each school has a uniform policy, and we at Ackermans can help you find your match. While uniforms are not standardized across South Africa, we stock Schoolwear essentials that should meet most schools' requirements-like grey trousers, white shirts, navy long-sleeved jersey, or rain jackets, or pt shorts, , and more. We also refresh our range on a regular basis so parents can come and buy what they need all year long.. )

Are school clothes for different seasons?

Yes. Most schools follow a summer and winter uniform system-and at Ackermans, we’ve got your child covered for both. Our summer range includes lighter items like short-sleeved shirts while our winter selection features long-sleeved jerseys, trousers, rain jackets and layered options for colder mornings. Its comfort made easy-no matter the season.

What fabrics are school uniforms made of?

Ackermans school wear is made with real kids and real life in mind. You’ll find durable cotton blends, polyester, and acrylic fabrics across our range-all chosen for comfort, easy care, and long-lasting wear. These materials can handle busy school days, frequent washing, and plenty of playground time.

Are school uniforms machine washable?

Yes. All our school uniforms at Ackermans are designed to be simple to clean and dry fast-perfect for busy parents who have a lot on their plate. We've got most of our collection machine washable, and a lot of them are also easy iron, Be sure to also read the wash care instructions on the garment labels.

Are waist options adjustable?

Indeed. Some of our shorts and skirts have adjustable elements like button-tab or elasticated waists. They suit expanding children and give you more wear out of each one. It's one of the small ways we help make uniforms comfortable-and more affordable for parents.

Is it possible to buy school wear online?

Yes, you may purchase our full school wear range online at ackermans.co.za. From basics, seasonal wear or accessories such as socks and shoes, online shopping saves time, is hassle-free, and provides you with the same value and quality as our stores.

What return policy is there on school uniforms?
