Help needed from those with access to teenage boys

[Builtthiscityonsausagerolls]

Have seen a Jack Wills gym bag/ smelliest set for a 16 year old boy. Being the wrong side of 40 I've no idea if this is cool or not but do remember the absolute horror of having something with the wrong label!
Could anyone with a teenage boy please check this vital information for me please :)

I wouldn't buy this for my nephew he's nearly 16. That's not high end enough for him 🙈 he's more luxury designers that I wld never pay the money for. Which is why he gets cash these days!

North Face and Carhartt here

Having said that, for his age group I'd probably go with £20 wrapped with a big chocolate bar

Oh Christ I have bought a set of this for my 12 yo cousin. He's just started taking an interest in his appearance etc and thought this would be a good gift! I remember when my now adult child wouldn't be seen dead in anything but Jack Wills!

Oh well, too late now, it's wrapped and ready 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have two teenagers.
For Christmas they want

1. Money
2. Chocolate
3. One of them wants some special headphones for his college course.

The money will go on some incomprehensible bit of computer gaming kit that lights up.

I'll do a Christmas stocking of random bits like socks/keyrings/books/sweets.

In your position I'd go all-purpose voucher (Ask parent what platform eg Xbox, Google, Amazon) and a slab of not-too-fancy chocolate.

Or possibly an Oodie (black)

What about Dickies. Has anyone got a boy who wears them?

[LadyLazarus40]

My 18 year old does (although less then he used to).

Sorry my comment was a reply to the question about Dickies

Is it just me or does "access to teenage boys" sound a bit dodgy?

Not just you! Didn’t like to say anything….

My 20 year old has a Jack willis Gym bag, but he has had it a few years, so may not be on trend at the moment.

[SymbollocksInteractionism]

If he only really likes to eat burgers, get him a five guys voucher

Yep my sixteen year old.

HunkyPunk glad it isn't just me. Are we lowering the tone?
