Advice pls on 'cool' jeans - brand and style.......

[bonnyb1]

Hi there

Can anyone pls advise as to what brand and style of jeans are good for a 16 yr old boy?
I am fostering a young man fresh from Afghanistan and he needs some new clothes - is very aware that british teenagers seem to be judging him on how he is dressed, which is a totally new concept for him! I only have young girls of my own, so have no experience of whats trendy for lads these days

DS says that brands are 'naff'. He reckons cool is logo free and not identifiable.

ok I see.......I was thinking you can't go wrong with Gap?

agree with moon on this one.. has to be logo free

Oh god not Gap for a 16 year old boy.... anything american is VERY uncool at the mo.

ok thanks so where do you get logo free from?

Thanks Herbietea that sounds good. We are going shopping on Saturday, and both those shops are close by. He is really small too, he wears size 10-11!

tkmaxx might also be a good place to look
agree also h&m

is topman as popular wth boys as topshop is with girls?

just read that he's on the small side
H&m would be great then,they have great boys section

DS likes TopMan and TKmaxx and H&M stuff.

Topman has small sizes (28" waist).
If he's not bothered try H&M boys rather than mens.
My sons (17 and 14) won't wear logos either. Except Levis but they are very expensive, although do not lose their shape as quickly as cheaper ones.
My younger son quite happily buys womens skinny jeans so that they are tighter.

BONnyb arent you GREAT?!!! WHat a lovely thing to do.

How long is he with you for Bonny?
That is an amazing thing to do.
Is it through a charity?
Sorry am a nosy parker, but am interested.

Uniqlo is great. When you're there look for yourself too!
