To buy DS a woman's dressing gown?

DS is 11 and desperately needs a new dressing gown. His Harry Potter one from 2 years ago barely covers anything anymore!

Anyway, he's grown up a lot in the past couple of years and wouldn't want anything with characters on. He also hates football.

I've found it impossible to find him a plain black dressing gown! However I saw one in the woman's section in Asda. Plain black. No female logos or anything, just a "George" lable at the back. It's only £10 and the small would fit him perfectly.

I don't think you can tell that it's a woman's one. I'm thinking of getting him it for crimbo. Should I?

Go for it - if it's plain black and the label doesn't give the game away, how would he ever know? It's tricky to find anything in that size!

Yes get it him, he wont even guess it was a ladies one.

I had this problem with DS who's a big 11 year old. All of the kids ones were too small, and the mens size S were too big. He has a womens size 10 and it fits him perfectly!!

Absolutely get it- are you also treating yourself at that price?
