A century of getting Australian kids dressed right.
Founded in 1922 by Leslie Winter Reid, LW Reid is one of Australia's oldest and most continuously operating wholesale apparel suppliers. What began as a distributor of major Australian brands evolved over generations into a respected manufacturer of corporate, sports and children's apparel. The name is particularly well established in schoolwear: students from thousands of Australian schools head out each morning in LW Reid garments, often without knowing the brand behind the fabric. More than a hundred years of operation in the Australian market means the sizing, construction and fabric choices are shaped by deep, practical knowledge of how Australian kids actually wear clothes.
The LW Reid range is built around durability and practical function. School shirts, polo sweaters, cargo shorts, school dresses, stretch pants and fleece zip-tops are designed to withstand the realities of daily school use: repeated washing, high activity, outdoor conditions and the general demands placed on children's clothing by children. Fabric compositions are selected for comfort across all climates, and sizing runs from baby through to adult to support full school programs. The range extends into sports, casual and corporate with polos, singlets and outerwear that carry the same construction standards. For uniform coordinators managing school programs at scale, the broad size range and consistent stock levels matter as much as the product quality.
School uniform coordinators, P&C committees and school administrative staff choose LW Reid for its track record, size range and reliable availability. Sports clubs and teams use the polo and singlet range for their durability and decoration compatibility. Wholesale buyers and uniform resellers value the consistent sizing and professional construction. Parents buying for individual students get the same quality as bulk institutional orders. If you're running a school uniform program and need a range that will still be available in the same spec next year, LW Reid is the brand that has consistently shown up for that.
