Boys clothes at Next - dark and uninspiring?

Why is it that Next have to concentrate on black and navy for young children's clothes? Rails of pretty and colourful girls clothes but the boys selection yuk? I couldnt find one nice t-shirt even the odd one was short sleeved (winter?) have the designers at Next not been inspired to design a colourful bright collection which doesn't have silly slogans, skull & crossbow or tacky transfers. What shocked me was toddlers t-shirts with rolling stone logos, navarna, or some lyrics from songs, whats the idea here then designers? Some of their stuff is bordering on chav. primark have had some sweet stuff, M&S is hit and miss and the odd item from the supermarket but I am struggling to find colourful sweet and funky t-shirts for my two.

do you shop online?
bluezoo from debenhams have some nice stuff at reasonable prices
dpam.com & verbaudet.com are worth a try too....

Another vote here for Sainsbury's and H&M. I sometimes get the odd bit for him from Fatface, Boden or John Lewis. Or Joules, because he loves their bright fluffy sweatshirts.

All the rows of dark blue/grey/brown boys clothing is a a huge annoyance. And don't get me started on the stuff with SKULLS on it
