Trainers for teen boys

14 replies

NikkiNokkiNooNah · 24/11/2024 16:27

I'd love to surprise my teen with some really nice trainers for Christmas. He never asks for branded gear even though his friends all wear high end brands. At 15 his feet seem to have stopped growing at size 10.5 so I feel the time is right to spend a bit more on some really nice ones. What is the current cool brand for trainers? Is it still Nike Air? Please help!

Nike air Jordans, Nike Air Force Ones or Nike air max 95s are worth a look.

Instead of surprising him and getting it completely wrong just ask in passing conversation what trainers he likes at the moment that are around

My DD teen boy friends have their own styles so one style doesn't necessarily fit all

Plus teens wear completely different styles depending on what part of the country they live in or what school they go to

Black Nike air force ones are for school only never for out of school for instance

I have 22 and 18 year old boys and a 14 year old girl, and Nike Air Max Plus have always been popular. The latest popular brand is On Cloud, so I'd have a look at them. All my three have a pair and say they're the comfiest trainers ever x

Nike air Max 95 I've noticed some of DD trendiest make friends wearing in grey or white so lighter colours

They don't really wear any air Jordan's any more and definitely wouldn't be buying them new

LilacLilyBird · 24/11/2024 16:44

Maybe the 4 or 5 air Jordan's though

Not necessarily
DS can't wear trainers for school so they all wear these out of school.

My soon to be 14 year old is wanting some On Cloud trainers for his birthday

LilacLilyBird · 24/11/2024 21:02

@Hoppinggreen well obviously in that case then yes
