DD's school's uniforms are carried by both class act and fraylich. Is it all the same stuff for the same price? If not:
Which are better quality?
Which are less expensive?
Which are a softer fabric?

I haven't shopped at Class Act in a while because I found that their sizes were not consistent.
I would have to buy my dd some size five jumper and some size sixes. The shirts were all cut the same but not the skirts and jumpers. I also find that their shirts fade, the Fraylich do not fade and all their pieces are cut exactly the same.
Even now it is so frustrating, I want to use my hand me downs from my older dd for my youngest, and I have to try on all different sizes to give her a full uniform wardrobe. When I try the Fraylich from my oldest dd on my second dd, she only has to try on one shirt and one skirt, if that one fits I know all the other pieces that are that size will fit.
But, they may have changed, like I said, it's been a few years since I shopped there and I haven't gone back.

For elementary school my girls went to BF and they have their own uniform manufacturer. So my only experience has been with hs and I've gone to Freilich. I seem to recall my SIL telling me the quality was better - that's likely why I went there.
I've found them to be super-helpful and super-nice, every shopping experience there has been pleasant.
I'm passing my 12th grader's skirts down to my 9th grader, and they look brand new, though I did send them to the cleaners rather than machine wash - something I only do for hs girls. DD wore her blouses for 3 years, so by now they are faded and yucky - but I do think that's pretty fair for the wear - so new blouses for both. The sweaters also fade and stretch - I've never found sweaters to last. You win some, you lose some.

Do yourself a favor and only deal with Class Act. Everything for both stores is made in one factory in Honduras.

You seem very sure of that, how do you know?
