Steve,

I think you are over-thinking this.  I have cool beatle boots which at some
times or places may be less cool in relation to others.  Nevertheless they
are pretty cool footwear by my own admittedly biased standards.  I don't
think you can objectively and absolutely label something like a uniform as
always uncool by definition.  Guess it's all in the mynd's eye of the
beholder.
