Christmas Jumper for a 13 yr old boy

[whattodo2019]

I have a very fussy 13 yr DS who need a christmas jumper for school. He is sooooo fussy about what he considers 'cool'..:. nothing i find is acceptable.
He is 5ft 8 and wears an adult S-M

Any suggestions? Supermarket jumper will not be OK!

What is your budget?
John Smedley have a gorgeous "Nicholas" jumper in, it's £195, but delivery is free!

Have you tried H&M?

£195 for a chrisas jumper 🤣 wtf!

Placemarking to help out.

Would he consider any of these cool?

I bought my son one from the ladies section in Primark. Its green with a baby yoda and say something like 'A very cute Christmas' he loves it and wears it loads.

Anything appeal from Merchoid?

Give him a budget and send him shopping. He's plenty old enough to track one down for himself.

I got 14 yr old one from ASOS this year, it has llamas on it...

Are you sure he "needs" one? My DSs' secondary always had Christmas jumper days but neither of mine ever wore a Christmas jumper. The closest they got was a red or green hoody but even that stopped after yr8 and they preferred to go in school uniform.

Does he have to wear one, my achingly cool 13 year old boy does not participate in my of the dressing up things, he doesnt do Christmas jumper day, Jeans for Genes day, Children in Need, Odd Socks for anti bullying. You name it he is too cool to do it.

Supermarket jumper will not be OK!

Fuck that. A jumper to wear once. It would be supermarket or fuck all here.

Lots of character jumpers in ASDA btw. DS has picked a STAR WARS one.

Isn't the whole point of a Christmas jumper is that they are the best definition of uncool?

it's his first year in this school so i think he feels he needs one but might take it off!!!

@RhinestoneCowgirl

Yep. DS is desperate for the Lidl one as he thinks it's so awful that it's great

Maybe set him a budget and get him to find one he would be happy with but I can pretty much guarantee he will either take it in his bag and never put it on or he will take it off soon after arriving.

Omg the lidl jumpers and trainers.. I looked in the magazine and said who on earth will buy these

To be honest my 13yo wouldn't been seen dead in a Christmas jumper! I'm suprised they have Christmas jumper day in secondary as I'm sure lots wouldn't want to wear them. My DD's primary doesn't even do it as they wouldn't want parents to fork out for something specific - especially if it may only be worn for one day! They just have non-uniform day on the last day of term and any one that wants to can wear a Christmas jumper then.

My DS prefers a heist as T-shirt - I either buy from Primark or Next depending on design - after the no uniform school day wear he tends to wear on Christmas Day and then as lounge/bed wear

My son is 12, he would not wear an Xmas jumper! He’d probably find a black Christmas t-shirt - I think he’s got one from H&M, and a primark one about FC flossing, from last year, which he’d wear instead. But a jumper would be a no no!
