+1  My teen wanted a $180 shoes last xmas.  He is still growing.  I bought him a $80 cheaper version. He complained about it, nicely.

I told him he can buy himself such expensive shoes that he will probably outgrow in a year, and see how he feels about wasting that much money on something he can't keep for more than a year.

He shut up after that.

I told him I don't mind paying for that for his bday/xmas if that's what he wants, but only after he's stopped growing.[/quote]

That’s so lame. He won’t stop growing until he’s in college probably. [/quote]
are you 15?

Even if he grows to college, his feet will stop way before then.

Nothing lame about not wasting money.   You sound very immature.[/quote]

No I’m not 15, but I think it’s lame that you won’t get him the shoes he wants that you can obviously afford just because he’s still growing. Daily wear shoes don’t last much longer than a year anyway. [/quote]

Why feed into the craziness when you can buy good shoes for half that? Really though, it's the people who can barely afford it who are most concerned about having the "right" brand. [/quote]
