Clothes retailer for 11 year old boy

[ZigZagToTheBeach]

Where do your 11-12 year old boys like to purchase their clothes from?
DS11 just wears what I buy for him and takes minimal interest in clothes, but as he is going up to secondary school next year I would love to hear what the other boys might be wearing!
Currently I purchase things from H&M, Next, Fat Face, TU, couple of items from Saltrock.

My 11 year old loves Rascal, Adidas & Nike. He also wears stuff from h&m/la redoute/reserved/next that I get him (tshirts, shorts, joggers etc).

Same places plus the odd bits from m&s and landsend for my boys, tbh. They're a bit older, now and Ds2 has a few Nike things and Ds1 is fully into man sizes and has a few tops from uniqlo.

[GorgeousGoldies]

Hollister in an XS or S.

Mine like the brand thread boys it's in next and Asda. Fat face also but usually in the sale as it's expensive.,

[Jumbojem]

H&m and next are my preference. My boys preference would be JD Sports (Nike, Adidas, rascal, sonnetti and so on). You mention fat Face but I don't think they do teen aged clothes and my two would Def find their clothes a bit twee for secondary school. Hoodies, joggers, t shirts in plain basic colours from next or H&M interspersed with branded Adidas, Nike, perhaps some skate or surf labels.

Mine live in 'comfy clothes' so shorts, tracksuit bottoms, t-shirts and hoodies.

JD Sports, Next, Canterbury, GAP pretty much covers it.

Mine who sounds like yours is quite happy with second stuff from the charity shops/hand me downs. I've said 100s of pounds doing this over the years with my 4.

It depends on the child at that age DS wore a combination of JohnnieB, Newlook mens, Debenhams and H&M. But some are head to toe in sports gear. At 16 DS only wears joggers in the house or for PE in winter.

I have an 11yo with no interest in clothes either. I buy Lands End, Next, H&M, M&Co TU, Joules and Fatface. I get quite a lot of the above from second hand & charity shops or in sales.

[BikeRunSki]

Same type of places, plus a couple of bits from Hype. He really has minimal interest in clothes.

My DS is 12. He lives in sports shorts, training tops, and hoodies.
He buys from sports shops.
Has a couple of nicer T-shirt’s from H&M and gets some bits from Primark.

I son is very slim so i find next good for him. I have odd well chosen trendy bits from asda and h and m. But at 10 he is mostly head to toe in sports wear and snubs most other stuff and has done for at least a year. He'd look so cool and handsome in something that wasn't polyester or nylon. I am hoping its a phase! Not worn jeans for two years. Totally refuses. Joggers only.

Dd is 11 and the boys in her class mainly wear branded sportswear such as Nike/ Adidas trackies or hype hoodies and jeans that could be from anywhere

I found pre-teen boys tricky - not helped by the fact that my ds was a runt. They’re at the stage of wanting to choose their own clothes (i.e., they don’t want to wear Fat Face or mini-Boden), but are too small for adult lines. In contrast, at the same age, girls can wear the smallest adult sizes.

[Matildatoldsuchdreadfullies]

I was going to add, I remember ds insisting on a superdry hoodie. Even the smallest men’s sizes were huge for him, and (understandably) he would not contemplate a small woman’s hoodie. He got one, which he was still able to wear 6 years and over a foot in height later.

My 12 year old DS really isn’t interested, but at 5’4” he can fit XS men’s stuff.

[BefuddledPerson]

Mine didn't care about clothes! So I bought plain things with no visible branding as no one can take issue with classics.

[SunnySomer]

Mine wasn’t interested at that age. He’s skinny so I got most stuff in Zara or H&M.
