DD is--or was--always talking about various sneakers. Now that I want to get a pair as a surprise for her birthday, she is not mentioning anything specific. I could ask her but she already knows about the one other significant gift she is getting so I would like this to be a surprise. Are Air Force 1s still cool? |
We’re not in the DC area so YMMV, but Nike Blazer Mid are the shoes my 8th grader wanted this year. Then her 6th grade sister wanted them for her birthday too. |
Air Force 1s are out
Blazers are in for girls Jordans for boys |
Air Force ones are out as pp said (they we r our right after I bought a pair for DD)
I DIDNT know about boys but girls wear Blazers, Jordan’s, and platform converse. |
Bor girls: Nike Blazers, Air Jordans, and Air Max 270's. To a lesser extent Converse Hi Tops.
AF1's have been out for a year. |
+1 |
My DD wants the Nike Blazers in pink |
Nike, ones with the gel, only in white |
Oh goodness. Any sneaker that fits? My teen and tween go to school with Asics. We're in Bethesda, an affluent neighborhood, and we don't know anyone who looks at sneakers in any particular way. |
According to my middle schooler:
White AF1s for girls. Jordans for boys. Lots of kinds. |
Where are you located? Public school or private? |
My 7th grade DD wear Reebok club C 85 shoes. There are a lot of fun variations and then plain white/off white as well. |
Meh, I don't know, OP, I think you'd be better off letting her have input. Make sure you buy from somewhere with a good return policy. |
AF1s are popular with girls at my DDs middle school. |
Blazers, 270 Air max or Converse |
