alisoncal Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I went to pick up my daughter's uniform from the uniform stockist at Crystal Peaks & the skirt & trousers were a light grey but in the uniform update information sheet from school it lists the trousers/skirt as charcoal grey. Has anyone else bought the ones from the stockists & if so are they charcoal or light grey? I have bought my son's trousers from elsewhere & these are charcoal grey which is a lot darker than my daughter's skirt. The staff at the uniform supplier said they would be ok but I will be a bit miffed if they turn out to be the wrong shade of grey as they are no way near charcoal.

kimismum Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 hi. i got my daughters trousers from the stockist in crystal peaks market and they are also light grey but they said they were right ones.....you got me wondering now, i guess loads of people will have got from there so they will all have same grey so i not worrying about it, i still have to buy black trainers with no logo on (thats proving difficult) and school shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncal Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 I gave up trying to get black trainers as I was told that if they had any logos or stripes etc I would be expected to colour them in with a black marker pen! There is no way I'm buying trainers to colour them in so they've both got plain leather shoes, much to my son's disgust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alisoncal Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 have they got to have black trainers for PE? I thought they could have any kind of trainers for PE but plain black for day to day schoolwear. Now I'm totally confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm totally confused. just been and looked through all my paper work and i think your right it just says trainer, sorry for the confusion, does that mean trainers can have logos on?

alisoncal Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 I thought it was only the ones they wear to lessons that have got to be plain black & any others are ok for PE. I've also checked through the paperwork and it doesn't specify anything for PE so I'm not sure. I'm not going to buy them any new trainers for PE & I'll just wait & see what is said in September. NO doubt there will be a few letters going home about what is ok & what is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnvqsos Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Does the Forge Valley refer to counterfeiting?I know there is a black market for grey trousers with many shops claiming the approved tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayne67 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hi The uniform from Pinders Crystal Peaks are light. If they are selling this as Forge Valley uniform, and anything is said about colour, then thats for the school to take up with them. Jayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
