It would be the latest jeans for my kids if they were getting anything.  Due to the fact that they can't put away the clothes they already have, I am not buying anymore.

My son needed everything for back to school.  We got the cool shoes, The jeans and long shorts that go past his knees, and now we are working on the "right" tees.  So I have voted tees because this has been the biggest challenge.   And OMgoodness.  I could not talk, I had to whisper when we looked at the shirts and I could not lift them up to look at them...because he was embarrassed...I had to hold them at my waist.  ugg.  It eventually became fun and I got really abnoxious shopping with him and we finally ended up in the best belly laughs.  I think we re-bonded a bit shopping for the right t-shirts. Although we only found 1 he was cool with.

We are always searching for jeans.  29 x 34 is a hard size to find. And, for twins - it's twice as hard as you need twice as many!  UGH!  Also need to go get sneakers.

I used to wear 27 x 34 prior to having twins myself..I had to shop in the boys section to find them.  I also used to find them at Levi's outlet stores. Good luck.

That is sooo funny!!  Teens are so particular about how their parents act, aren't they??  Sounds like you just played along and it worked out well for you.  My son is also very specific about t-shirts!
