At RTC, you gotta suck up the cold. They tell you EXACTLY what to wear and you have NO choice. If its cold turtle neck undershirts are REQUIRED or watchcaps up or down are required, etc.

As for the uniform allowance, you get your PDay issue (the stuff you get when you get there, like PT gear, razor, etc) and you will pay for those in 2 increments to total about $600. Your 1st and 2nd Uniform issue (1st includes NWU's, Coveralls, NWU coat etc. and 2nd includes NSU's, pea coat, and dress uniforms) you do NOT pay for, they are paid for by the navy. You get an extra uniform allowance (about 200-250) to pay for upkeep (dry cleaning) and replacement uniforms once a year.
