| | | Lochaven International selling Harry Potter uniforms In March we told you about an interview with the owners of Lochaven International, the company who have provided jumpers, cardigans and tank tops for the Hogwarts uniform since the Chamber of Secrets film.
Given the desire of fans (in particular, those of you who commented on the last story) to own some of this clothing, Keith Murray has revealed to us that they are now going to be sold to the general public for the very first time.
Each of the three pieces are available in the Hogwarts colours for the four houses. Prices range from £35 - £45 and all items are available in children's, men's and women's sizes.
Photos of all the items in the range can be seen here.
We will review a sample of these products in the coming weeks. |

A shame its just the jumpers and cardigans that they are selling. For that price I'd want the tie thrown in.

I agree.
Way too expensive to not include a tie.

yeah, and the tie is like... well, in my opinion, what makes the uniform. otherwise its like, a jumper with a few stripes
BUT you can get ties in other places *has a gryffindor tie*
It's still cool though

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

They've been selling the jumpers and cardigans on eBay for aaaaaaages. Although, they don't seem to be any more.
I'd reeeally love one of the cardigans!

Not true. This is what Keith said; Quote:
Last year a Florida-based business bought 100 from us and THEY sold on ebay but when they added their profit markup they became very expensive (around $90). Our price is around $58-$68.
We put a few on ebay in the last couple of weeks as we waited for our website module to be completed. We started selling direct from our ecommerce website yesterday.
I'm being sent one and shall review it when I get it.

I want one! But it's so expensive.
I agree with you all - it should include the tie!

their very expensive for the jumper... and the stripes are too high.  My little brothers school uniform is like the early HP ravenclaw uniform (the chunky stripes on the tie) and costs less than those.
I'd want a tie with the jumper for that price
