How many hoodies does your teenage son own?

Anonymous
Just wondering? My son has just one and I feel like he might need another, but I see boys who are always wearing them.

Three, I think.

About 5, but he wears only one. Fortunately, we bought two of that one, so he's usually clean, but I'm sure his teachers wonder what's up with us as a family that he always wears the same shirt (he wears it to school every day - it's possible that he takes it off, in which case he's wearing one of the two t-shirts he finds acceptable).

My DS does the same thing. When he was younger I bought 4 or 5 of the exact same shirts. He also picked the same fleece every time he outgrew one. He changed schools and we saw one of his old SACC teachers 2 years later and she said "oh my good, that fleece still fits him?" It wasn't the same one, it was a bigger one just like the one he wore two years before. Now my youngest DD refuses to give up her very tattered old high tops. I'm going to throw them out this weekend because I'm pretty sure someone at school will be suggesting pretty soon that there are resources for our family to get new shoes if we can't afford them. This is her second pair just like those, but we can't find an exact replacement. I don't get it, as I kid I was always happy for new and different stuff.

Same here with my 14 year old (high school freshman.) I think he has about 4 or 5 but will typically wear the same one for a couple weeks straight.

One that he never wears out of the house. They're not the most elegant thing.

Mine has about 4 but always wants to wear the same one!

Mine has 4 and he wears them all. And he wants more!

@4. He wears one to school everyday of the week during colder months. Wears them on weekends too.

Quite a few - 8-10? It's what he wears almost daily in the winter and as a jacket in the spring and fall.

We also get some of them as handme downs from our family that are in great shape, so it's not like I'm buying 10 $50 hoodies every year.

My 13 yr old DS might have 4 or 5. He wears them while I wash the others.

8-10, with five he rotates in a more frequent basis. Like PP they are like a coat for him. He never leaves home without one.

I am forever buying clothes for my HS freshman. He always looks the same. A dark pant and some muted earth tone shirt in gray, black, blue, blue-black..

Hooties that look the same ...black, gray, dark blue, steel gray, dark gray...
