My experience being (easily) the poorest kid in a very affluent Catholic schools is that 'uniform' clothes act a lot like race. That is, if everyone is supposed to be wearing the 'same' thing, there are still potential differences in the quality or fit of these 'uniform' clothes much like how natives and long time residents of New Orleans can (and do) classify people by race in a fashion that outsiders will fail to understand because they will think these people all look the same i.e. 'mixed'.

I suppose you have some basis for assuming that uniform clothes are all sweat free and all stylish ones are 'sweaty'?
