t shirts for a 12 year old

DS has just noticed clothes (in the mildest way possible). His friends are definitely a few steps ahead of him and am thinking a couple of cool t shirts might be appreciated. Does anyone know of any decent websites where I might find something a bit different?

He's definitely a scruffy jeans and t shirt kind of boy.

Well it sort of depends what his friends like if he wants to fit in but I would possibly look at Hype, Jack Wills and SuperDry.

Thanks for the reply. Don't think he's bothered about fitting in label-wise, he's just noticed some funny retro-style or slogan stuff on others and said he thinks (rightly) that his stuff is a bit dull. He's asked one of his friends and they said their mum gets them online. Trying to work out what this 'online' place might be!

Hi, if its gamer type stuff try redbubble. Postage is a bit steep but it's got loads of stuff on.

For some reason my almost 12 year old loves C&A t-shirts.
I'm quite fond of the most expensive as they are non-iron. :)

But your best guide will be his friends and what he's bought so far.

Hype have some eye catching designs & are on trend . Can buy those through places like Next too.

I was looking at Next earlier, they'll have some that will fit the bill.

We get fab ones at Peacocks for DD although they are in the boys section. Space prints, that sort of thing.

Well DS is a few years behind, he's only 7 but he bloody loves clothes 😂 He mainly loves Vans, Converse, DCs etc that sort of skate/ surf/ bike brands. He's also counting the inches til he can fit into superdry 😂.

If it's unbranded stuff then colour is the key, or stuff with surf/ skate/ bike motifs.

He always wears skinny jeans and hi tops with a flat peaked cap too. It makes me laugh coz it's exactly the opposite of what was cool when I was a teenager in the early 2000s!
