School uniforms were often purchased in clothing shops or men and boyswear shops which had a school uniform section. Major department stores in the larger cities also had school sections. This is wear the school-specific items like caps, blazers, and ties as well as kneesocks with school trim were purchased. The major chain stors carried items like grey shirts and trousers and plain grey kneesocks. I believe there were also coop stores, but here I have few details. Most private and some state schools had shops where parents could buy seviceable used garments.
