Athletic Uniforms And The Ralph Lauren

On February 24 of 1996 when President Bill Clinton made a speech at the Jackie Robinson Academy in Long Beach California he stated “This remarkable progress that you have shown in your school as a result of your school uniform policy, making it safe, more disciplined and orderly, creates teachers who focus on teaching and students who focus on their job of learning” (Bily, 2014 p.5). The school dress code debate is not new and the belief that it makes schools safer and improves learning and test scores has been in the forefront as one of the many ways to improve and promote education in our country. The school classrooms in this country are nothing like they were in the past.

Most teenagers think that wearing uniforms is a waste of time and that it shouldn't be mandatory. There are many positive and negative effects but I believe that school uniforms should be mandatory. There are many advantages such as peer equivalency, self esteem, easier for parents, and also stress reducing. There are also some questionable disadvantages such as lack of self expression, demeaning morale, and lack of diversity.

First, school uniforms would enhance school pride, unity, and community spirit by making everyone feel like they belong and fit in with their school. Throughout the school, teachers would increase their level of caring, respect, and trust of students. Additionally students would feel important and as if they are a part of a team by wearing a uniform.

A uniform saves parents from having to keep buying their kid the latest trend and name brand clothing. Buying five different uniform styles is a lot cheaper than having to buy 30-40 different clothing styles and colors. Most uniforms can be easily altered or added to for the changing of the seasons, which saves time and money from not having to shop the seasons.

Varsity Brands and Star Athletica both produce cheerleading uniforms. Varsity Brands copyrighted some of their uniform designs, including how some of the stripes, colors and shapes were arranged. In 2010, Varsity Brand sued Star Athletica for copyright infringement on designs found on Varsity Brand’s uniforms. The district court ruled that “the colors-and-designs component of a cheerleading uniform cannot be conceptually separated from the utilitarian object itself.” This meant that without the designs on a cheerleading uniform, it isn’t a cheerleading uniform. Essentially, without the colors and designs, it’s just a piece of fabric, like a dress. With this ruling, designs on the uniform couldn’t be copyrighted because without the designs,

It shows that they are a part of a team or club and that they support them and is proud to be a part of that team. Freedom of movement is very significant in sport, so as far as uniforms go, having clothing that is open and not too tight can help perform better during the activity. Light clothing such as polo-shirts and shorts provide an adequate amount of moving room whilst executing swings in golf, as there’s no tightness that stops you from achieving maximum performance. Uniforms help distinguish a club from another, especially during competitive sport. No major changes should be made to club uniforms, other than making their name be more representative and known to other clubs, for example: making the club emblem larger, or giving the club more expressive and representative

School uniforms were first implemented in the early 1900s and were used for the schooling of minorities, specifically Native American women (Dussel, 2006). In 1996, the US Department of Education reported that only three percent of public schools mandated uniforms. As a result of the belief that uniforms make schoolrooms more orderly and disciplined, President Clinton encouraged schools to adopt uniforms (Gentile et al.,2012). Shortly after, uniforms were widely adopted in urban communities to counterbalance students wearing gang colors or being identified as poor. Since urban communities have often been stigmatized with narratives that are colored by violence, many of the current research studies associated with uniforms focus on the relationship between uniforms and misbehaviors, attendance, and teacher retention.

Sports have changed drastically since 1949. Sports dress codes are more protective and less conservative than the dress codes of earlier days. Sports gradually became more popular and defined differently approaching today. Tracks used in NASCAR have improved because of creations of concrete and pavement; creators had more to work with and made longer tracks which would make for more laps and superspeedways. Safer and faster cars could travel the longer to the changes in makes so they could be the fastest and win. With changes in makes came changes in the race name, which often used the type of car raced or track inventor in the name. Changes in football uniforms have increased the number of football teams due to the increased protection from

"Uniforms show that you are part of an organization. Wearing it says we 're all in this together, Also, if you wear your uniform with pride, it means you are half way there to being respectful, buying into what the organization is all about. ' ' Jason Wing, head teacher at the Neale-Wade academy in Cambridgeshire, says. (The Guardian) Uniforms have been around for

In 1920s, the first Winter Olympic took place in England which brought the sport trend into casual clothing. Many man and women began to participate in such sports as golf, tennis, cricket which influence from America. Women began to wear sport cloth for the first time. For cricket, a v neckline jumper is wear with vertical line, was made from jersey fabric which provide stretch comfortable for movement.

The history of school uniforms in the United States public schools begins with small underprivileged school of Cherry Hill Elementary in Maryland and the domino effect that happened soon after in the years after. The popularity of school uniforms can greatly be credited to the Long Beach, California study and President Bill Clinton’s speech on the topic. At first, school uniforms were only for the private or Catholic private schools however the school uniform trend spread to other public schools to adopt the “preppy look” and success. This has now set new standard for the United States school system. A brief history of school uniforms will give a significant insight on the growing development that is transforming American schools.

Athletic brands play a major role in college sports and athletics in colleges across the country. Athletic companies such as Nike, Under Armour, and Jordan are all involved in college athletics. Almost every sport and athlete that plays it requires shoes, equipment, and clothes that allow them to play the sport correctly and as a team. These college athletes need these brands and their sponsorships to enjoy participating in athletics, and without these sponsors and scholarship opportunities many athletes would have nothing.

I was in Kindergarten when I met my friend James. We were friends “right off the bat”, and I was invited to his house all the time. When his mom said “Time to go!”, I was not ready. So I would say something like “ Aw, man, do I have to?’’ Then James would say something like “Just a few more minutes! We were having so much fun!” The only time I WANTED to leave was at a New Year’s Eve party at his house. Everyone left at 8:00!

Business managers don't just desire to rent work apparels for their personnel, they want to gain from the image enhancing effects produced from a managed work apparel program. Leading among those results is the capability to project a qualified image and efficiently endorse a brand. Some years back, a nationwide survey conducted for the textile service industry established that clientele are more liable to do business with workers who dress in uniforms as they stood apart as professionals and were observed as being more capable and well-informed. These survey results are true now as it can transform into real bottom line advantages for those companies selecting a managed corporate wear and uniforms program for their employees.

Emotions can be shown, and mostly our clothing shows that we want to be seen as flashy, dark, or even hopeful. Although when uniforms come into the equation what does it give us? Nothing. No showing into ones emotion, no show of how that person is feeling. Although yes their face can show a few words is it really enough? No it’s not, Uniforms just show you are just another bland person with minimal to nothing in feeling, and yes we can add accessories but as well, those are limited to bland and nothing that shows real emotion. Someone that wears a uniform can fake a smile, can fake a laugh since they know that with what
