What do 9th grade boys wear?

Anonymous
My rising 9th grade DS does not care at all what he wears / looks like (yet). He's starting at a new school this fall, and while it's not known for being uptight about fashion, I'd hate for him to show up looking obviously like a 6th grader. He mostly wears jeans or joggers and graphic tees from Target or Old Navy.

My rising 9th grader wears Joggers and Nike tshirts.

My 11th grade son has worn the same thing since late elementary school - athletic shorts, tees and hoodies. The only thing that’s changed is the logos have gotten smaller. There are boys who are into fashion and those who are not.

No jeans.

Nike or Adidas shorts (not too baggy), sweatpants (not toi baggy), hoodies, white or mostly white sneakers.

Athletic shorts, T shirts, hoodies. He has mostly black sneakers because that is what is required for reffing and he is too lazy to switch out pairs.

It depends on the school. Mine wears jeans and tshirts and hoodies.

Haven't seen a teen boy in jeans in ages!

Athletic shorts (the shorter nylon ones from Nike or Fabletics etc)

Sweatpants-more fitted, not super baggy (Nike is a good choice)

Hoodies - various

Tshirts- various

Nike sneakers or sometimes I see rubber athletic slides with socks

That seems to be what most wear. Jeans are less common.

Yes! My son does this and it is such a mystery to me when it is as hot out as it is now. Just wear the slides alone!

He sounds fine to me!

My kid and others at his school wear:

Jeans, loose cords, or loose chino-type pants (people are so weird about this… yes, many kids wear actual jeans and pants!)
T-shirts - plain or graphic
Flannel shirts - oversized, open over at-short, untucked (very 90s)
Hoodies
Athletic shorts
Sneakers - anything from Converse to actually running shoes
Birkenstocks - with socks (god forbid the toes be seen)

No jeans. No one wears them.
Khakis or Nike sweat pants
T shirts (not graphic)
Hoodies (Patagonia or Carhartt)
Lululemon shorts (the shortish ones)
Nike blazers or leather flip flops

My son does this with crocs. It's awful but pretty common for boys here.

My kid wears a uniform to school (golf shirt and shorts), but after school, my kid wears athletic shorts and t-shirts (various kinds). He's a fan of Nike so most of this stuff is Nike.

No jeans. On days he has to dress up he wears khakis.

Asong as they aren't wearing pictures of superheroes or random slogans like "LADY KiLLER", anything is fine

+1

Partway into 9th grade he started talking a lot about his ‘fit’ and would occasionally try to dress a bit better (joggers, flannel etc) but 90% of time is athletic shirt, t-shirt (athletic or from his sport or a trip but pretty subtle). Crocs and socks (white Nike crew) or Nike dunks (Air Force ones are also acceptable. He just upgraded his crocs for Birks for 11th grade
