School Uniform Accessories

About our school uniform accessories

Our school uniform accessories are the finishing touches every uniform list includes: school shoes, socks, ties, scarves and marvins. Getting these small items right makes a uniform look complete and keeps children comfortable and warm. We stock them in school colours and deliver anywhere in Kenya.

Our school uniform accessories

• School shoes — black, durable, slip-resistant, in kids and adult sizes.
• School socks — reinforced heel and toe, KSh 250 per pair.
• School tie — plain or striped, clip-on or standard, in school colours.
• School scarf — warm knitted scarf, plain or striped.
• School marvin — knitted cap to match the school sweater.

Prices for school uniform accessories

School socks are priced at KSh 250 per pair and can be bought straight from our website. For school shoes, ties, scarves and marvins, prices depend on the size, design and colour, so we confirm the price before you order. Tap Ask on WhatsApp on any of these items, tell us what you need, and we will reply with the price and availability. You then pay by M-Pesa and we deliver.

Matching school uniform accessories to your school

Ties, scarves and marvins usually come in the school's main colour with stripes in the second colour. Popular combinations in Kenya include maroon and gold, navy and red, green and white, and royal blue and yellow. We stock common designs and, for bulk orders, make school uniform accessories in your exact colours to match our school sweaters. Send a photo of your uniform on WhatsApp.

School shoes and socks

School shoes take a beating, so look for a strong sole, a slip-resistant tread, a padded insole and a secure fastening — and leave a thumb's width of growing room. Pair them with our reinforced school socks; we recommend four to five pairs for day scholars and six to eight for boarders.

Keeping warm: ties, scarves and marvins

In cold areas and during the July cold season, a school scarf and school marvin make a big difference, especially for boarding students and children who leave home before sunrise. Combined with a fleece jacket, they form a complete cold-weather set.

Clip-on or standard ties?

Clip-on ties are easier and safer for young children; standard ties suit upper primary, junior and senior school. Both are available in plain and striped designs.

Bulk school uniform accessories

Schools, children's homes and sponsorship programmes order school uniform accessories in bulk — shoes across a range of sizes, socks by the dozen, and ties, scarves and marvins in school colours. We pack per child or per class and deliver to the school. See our bulk school uniforms page.

Sports balls

Looking for footballs, netballs or volleyballs? See our sports balls in the school tracksuits and sportswear range.

Caring for school uniform accessories

Polish school shoes weekly, wash socks inside out, untie ties each evening, and hand-wash scarves and marvins in cool water and dry them flat. Label everything with your child's name — accessories are the items most often lost at school.

Why school uniform accessories matter

Teachers notice the details. A missing tie, odd socks or a cap in the wrong colour can earn a learner a warning at inspection, even when the rest of the uniform is perfect. Getting the school uniform accessories right from the start saves children from that stress and makes the whole uniform look complete. Accessories are also the items most often lost or worn out during the year, so it pays to buy good quality and label everything.

Many schools publish a list of approved school uniform accessories, including the exact tie design, sock colour, shoe style and whether marvins and scarves are allowed. Keep a copy of the list on your phone when you order, or send us a photo of it on WhatsApp so we can check each item for you.

A checklist of school uniform accessories

• Black school shoes that fit, with growing room.
• Four to eight pairs of socks in the school colour.
• A tie in the correct design, clip-on for young children.
• A scarf and marvin for cold mornings, in matching colours.
• Name labels or a laundry marker for every item.

Budgeting for school uniform accessories

Accessories are small individually but add up across several children. Buying them together with the main uniform helps you reach the free-delivery amount, and asking for prices upfront on WhatsApp lets you plan your budget before school opens.
