  •  teen boyI have 3 teen boys still at home. I looked at both pages included in your link at all the options of hoodies. My personal answer is, of course it depends on for which teen boy and their style but for my:

    14 YEAR OLD SKATER STYLE boy- I'm sure he would most love the one on pg 2. VANS fleece that is black with the words Vans going down the front of the chest.

    17 YEAR OLD TRENDY FASHON FORWARD boy- who usually shops at PacSun, he would most love the Black and White striped Vans fleece hoody on page 2.

    I hope that is helpful for you? Good luck!

    I have the 5 teens I still have at home all make me a long wish list of things online. They make an email with the photos, links and prices of all their most desired items from small and inexpensive up to a certain price limit. All I have to do is click the links and buy the items I choose and I forward it to grandparents too which is helpful to them as well. The lists are long enough that they never get everything on their list and they know that is part of the point so each thing they get is still a complete surprise.

    I agree with this.  It really depends on their sense of style.  I wouldn't buy my brothers the same sweatshirts because they are very different people.  Maybe scope out his clothes a bit and see what kind of a feel you get for them...Good luck!!

  • I think it depends on the style of the boy, but one that caught my eye right away is

    Rusty™ Blitz Hoodie

    thats one that I would definitely pick out for my own son.

    This.  It really depends on their style personalitiy.  But you did a great job picking hoodies though.  Hoodies are very versitile gifts for teenage boys!

  • My son (16) would probably wear either the Point Zero (black), the American Living grey (cause it looks similar to an Abercrombie) or the brown Rusty. He's not into the more current tight jeans look. If your sons do then I would choose one of the ones towards the bottom of the page with stripes etc.

  • Yes, definitely pick the one that you dislike! Thats what I do with my teen son. But normally with any hoodie you cant go wrong!
