Didn't have one, but there was an unofficial one lol. A few, technically, but one style dominated to such a degree as you amount to an actual uniform.
T-shirt in red or black, jeans, and high tops. Didn't matter what clique you got put into, that was the uniform. Didn't matter if you were a boy or girl, really, though more girls ignored the majority and went with fancier clothes.
Since red and black were the school colors, a lot of kids went with that, which made it seem like it was more popular than it actually was, and it spread. Enough so that the jr high schools ended up with most of the kids wearing the same basic thing most of the time.
It was always fun when someone would move into the area, come to school and be like "they didn't tell me I needed a uniform".
