Do you keep your old school uniforms?

Do you keep old school uniforms as a form of remembrance of your student's life? Girls would probably keep some their pinafores or exchange with friends but I could be wrong. My old uniforms were discarded except for a light green shirt worn during my days in Tampines Junior College. I kept it because it was bought quite expensively at that time and it is still comfortable to wear as home clothing.

It was 30 years since I left school. I know the nostalgia of keeping our old school uniforms for sentimental value. I wish I did that. But I did not. No point regreting anyway. However, I kept up my military caps and certain buttons and awards. They help me remember I was once a really disciplined guy.

We didn't have uniforms, but we had a rather strict dress code. I kept a couple of my favorite shirts, but needless to say, I was happy to get rid of the rest. I hated that a part of my individuality had to be taken away from me for a lousy dress code in a public school.

Hmm...we don't have such a problem in Singapore. In fact I think girls here generally like their school uniforms especially the pinafore types, because it helps to bring out their figures, innocence, studious look etc..but I could be wrong. They express their individuality in some other ways perhaps not through uniforms.

Hi, I still have the tie I wore in primary school. I don't have anything else. I also still have my first holster from my first cowboy outfit, but I think I became a pacifist or something and now just remember sticking up the visitors when they arrived.

Nope..never kept any of my pinafores. I do not see the point. Eventually we wont be able to fit in them.

I never keep any of my school uniforms and anyway, will not be able to fit in them anymore. However, I do still keep the PE shorts which I can wear around the house as it is really comfortable. My mum always scold me for wearing it as she feels that I should have grown out of it. :D
It's very comfortable!

I only wear school uniform when I was in HS and in Elementary. I can't remember exactly where my they are now but I know for sure that I have sold my HS uniform at this store near my school. Did get a little amount of dough. I've been missing my uniform. Sometimes I wished I never sold them. Oh well..

Hello naka75! I actually didn't keep my old uniforms. I can't remember now where are they. As far as I can remember my mom gave it to one of my cousins who can't afford to buy a new uniform. It's ok with me, I am happier because I know I was able to help.
