[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Idk, I do get expensive gifts for my kids and it annoys me on some level how all prized teen stuff is so expensive now. There is something wrong with it, like they are mini sophisticated consumers at a young age. My dd bought herself some fancy Nike sneakers for $300. That is twice more than I have ever spent on shoes for myself.[/quote]

OP here.  This completely resonates with me!  Sigh.  [/quote]

OP from your post it doesn't sound like your daughter is into the "prized teen stuff" in the same way some kids are. Maybe I read it wrong? And based on other posters here (and what I've seen myself for years), Fryes are not just prized by teens, but by a lot of women who have loved them for decades.

I mean, I get what you're saying about teens wanting a ton of expensive things these days - that's certainly a stereotype and for some kids it's true. But the way everyone is reading your OP, your kid wants something high quality because it's the right boot for her today and into the future. Cost per wear and all that jazz.[/quote]
