If your child’s feet are no bigger than a women’s 8, you can buy the kids size for $30 less.

Where are you finding them this inexpensive?

I don't think PP meant $30. She meant the kids sizes are usually $30 less than whatever the adult version costs. I buy kids size 5 Uggs for my DD who also wears adult women's shoe size 6.5.

Correct. PP means that kids sizing in Uggs is about $30 LESS than adult sizing. Not $30 total. Kids Tasmans are actually $70 vs. $110, so $40 cheaper.

Those aren’t kids sizes you idiot. They say walker or toddler.

These go up to big kids size 5 and are $80 (not in stock in chestnut though): https://www.nordstrom.com/s/ugg-kids-tasman-ii-embroidered-slipper-toddler-little-kid-big-kid/4587575?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FAll%20Results&color=219

Kids size 5 is the same as 6.5 or 7 in Women's.

I was coming here to say this about the sizing! If it works for you, helps save a bit.

My 9th grader (McLean HS) and college kid both want them this year.

Same.

Yeah, I don't see kids wearing these anywhere. Are you all sure this is what kids want this year? I remember mommies recommending them on this board last year. Please don't your kids last year's popular things, they'll die of embarrassment.

Seriously cringe though, my teens prefer not to wear the same thing as everything else, it's super boring otherwise.

Good for your kid? What’s the big deal if kids want to have what other kids have? I cannot stand these comments especially about middle schoolers. Most middle schoolers don’t want to stand out, whether they are popular or not. They just want to fit in and it’s completely developmentally appropriate. Stop acting like your kid is superior.

My kids are both confident, outspoken and kind. They still want to dress like everyone else because they are middle schoolers.

I had the one that stood out. She has some things everyone had but mostly her own style by middle school. Funny though the kids who made fun of other girls for their clothes to the point of cruelty just conformed to what most girls were wearing. They bullied girls they thought wore babyish clothes. They weren’t wearing anything anyone would look at twice.

The vice principal told me more than once that he couldn’t understand how no one bullied my daughter because dressed in her own style. He obviously knew nothing about style.

I’m sure there’s a few in every school that are very well dressed. And then you have the kids who dress related to the group she’s in. The anime lovers, music lovers who have every rock band t-shirt ever made. There are definitely more than one way to dress in middle school.

What an odd thing for a VP to say. I couldn’t imagine ours saying something like that.

I’m the PP you quoted. My point wasn’t that kids cannot dress as they’d like, clothes are a great form of self expression. My point was I think it’s bizarre when parents come into threads where someone is asking about what middle schoolers like and act like it’s wrong for middle school age kids to want what others have when it’s totally normal and age appropriate. I’d much rather have my kid comfortable in what they are wearing so. They can focus on school. If that’s Ugg slippers and pj pants so be it.

It’s best if the person requesting the information would describe the child. Does she like bright colors or black? Does she usually wear baggy or tight fitting clothes. There is more than one trendy style for middle school right now. There’s the skin tight leggings and super tight hoodie. There’s the baggy hoodie. There’s Jeans with a t-shirt and plaid button down shirt, baggy cargo pants, wide leg Jeans or leggings.

And yeah, the vice principal brought it up more than once. I was kind of surprised he even took notice of what she was wearing. It wasn’t unusual clothing just more like Vogue and her friends were more like Teen magazine and Uggs. He said he just couldn’t figure it out.

My 11 yo MS kid is like her dad and has zero idea what anyone is wearing or what she should be wearing. I've been buying my DH's clothes since we started dating in college. My 11 yo takes right after him and has zero interest in picking out her own clothes. (She'll likely end up an engineer like him, so certainly not competing for the popular crowd )

It's great that your kid has their own style, but not all kids are into the same thing. Mine doesn't care about clothes at all. So I buy my DD clothes that are comfortable and roughly match what other kids are wearing to MS.

I bought her UGGs recently because I don't like her wearing Crocs with socks on cold, wet days. She likes shoes she can slip on quickly. They seem like a common MS choice. Done.

I just showed the Ugg Tasmans to my 13 year old 8th grader and she said they are ugly. She's never seen anyone wearing those, so I think some of these moms must be a year or two out of date? But my kids also don't go to a DC private, so maybe we're just too poor in VA, LOL.

No you just want cool kids. Cringe mommies trying to relive their teenage years through their kids. So pathetic.

DP. What is pathetic is a grown a$$ adult mocking MS aged kids for wanting to fit in while at the same time praising your kids for being too cool to care. You are the toxic person in this situation. Perhaps you should work on whatever it is that makes you feel better by cutting down 13 year olds.

'

I don't think PP was cutting down 13 year olds so much as their mothers for trying to figure out what popular things to buy them to make them look cool.

Those aren’t kids sizes you idiot. They say walker or toddler.

You have anger issues. The big kid ones are $80 and still a great deal. Go touch grass.

The link you posted on this forum has toddler and walker. Please link to the actualkids sizes.

Do your own online shopping.

Yeah, you can’t link it bc it doesn’t exist. The cheaper prices are for babies and toddlers. You’re a liar.
