Teen boy trainers/style

What brands are in for teenage boy trainers and clothes? 16 year old DS with autism, trying to buy him some stuff that will help him blend in. We are clueless on fashion, he wants to he fashionable but isn’t clued up to know what he wants to buy.
He is generally very sporty so lives in sports gear. He wants some smart casual things and new trainers

My sporty ds likes Nike, North Face and UnderArmour.

Vans, element, billabong…
They’re sporty but not in a traditional sports way. They’re more associated with skating / surfing but look pretty cool in an ‘I’m sporty but not off to a training session right now’ way..
We also find H&M has some good stuff for that age (in small mens) that doesn’t break the bank. Have a look at what they dress the mannequins in to get ideas!

DS is 15 soon and likes UnderArmour, Nike and North Face, Nicce and Napapijri. The trainers of choice seem to be all white Nike Air Force 1 ‘07

Two teens here. For sports brands, I would say Nike and North face are the ones that don’t seem to go out of fashion. Air Force 1’s for trainers, preferably white.

If he’s looking for something a bit smarter, my DS has just started wearing cargo trousers. His are from H&M, but they seem to have them everywhere. With a plain slim fit tshirt, again from H&M.

Ds1 is 14 and likes Nike, adidas, Ellesse, Under Armour, Champion. Air Force One are the trainers of choice for him.
