    They’re not uncommon though. The only good rationale I’ve heard is its good for stopping students for feeling bad/getting bullied because their parents don’t buy them the most expensive clothes.

      Except that doesn’t even work. They’ll compare who has the newest and most expensive iPhone. Or who has the most expensive $500+ designer sneakers (seriously tho, what the fuck are kids doing these days) and somehow shoes are not part of the uniform code. Or some other ways to bully.
