OP here. Armpit hairs he's. Changing voice yes. But no facial hair yet.

Sounds like an early developer, he is probably about done, especially considering parent heights. I have noticed a lot of boys going through puberty much earlier than what used to be the norm. My son was a later developer, but many of his friends grew earlier and were done by 14ish, at least in height.

If he has no facial hair there's no way he's about done with puberty or his growth spurt. A quick google search most boys stop growing between the ages of 16 and 18. I think it's likely he grows at least a few more inches.

Not really. Some guys don’t get much facial hair until their 20s (or ever) - they are long done with puberty. Hair growth is a very separate thing from bone growth. And yes, most boys stop growing around 16-18 so that is the average, meaning some will stop earlier and some will stop later. Many earlier developers are done around 14.

But none at all? I agree few teen boys can grow a full beard, but I think at least having a moustache starting is a pretty solid indicator puberty is happening. FWIW, my son is 14, predicted to be tall, but started his growth spurt later. He has grown 5 inches this year, his voice has changed and he has facial hair on his upper lip only. He's 5'8" and 125 lbs; his growth curve says he will likely end up at 6'1"-6'2" but he's definitely not an early grower. He has a friend who is 13 who is 6'1" and 215lbs...his voice started changing when he was 10 and his growth has always been off the charts.

Old Navy can be good too.

American Tall (a Canadian company) is the best. My 15 year-old is 6'5'' and counting, we think.

Thanks for posting, my son is projected to be extremely tall so I'm already on the lookout for options for XLT and size 16+ shoes.

These people must not really believe that 6’5+ grown men exist, either. After all, most males are done growing by about 16.

I hope no one ever tells them about the NBA - their heads might actually explode!

Yes, so many people have said 6’5 people “don’t exist!” Please point out where exactly someone expressed this belief!

Too dumb for words.

I suspect it’s just you repeatedly implying that anyone who says their son is tall is lying. You seem unwell, to be honest.

Of course people with tall sons are going to gravitate towards a thread about height. People follow that which they relate to and have interest in.

14% being 6 foot or taller - kinda surprises me. I’m a 5’8 woman and have a reasonable grasp of what 6 foot looks like….i think there are a lot of boys this age that hit 5’11 so they are close enough that 6 feet doesn’t seem unusual

You should look up Jeremy Gohier. He’s a real person - because tall people exist.

You people are too much.

I’ve posted the stats a couple of times. Go take a statistics course and stop embarrassing yourself.

And for the record, we also buy clothes for my 6’7 15 year old at American Tall.

I’m not embarrassed. I think it’s hilarious. Keep it coming!

What’s hilarious?

When did his big growth spurt start? My son spurted from 12.5 to 13.5 and has grown barely an inch since. He’s currently 16.

My money is on 6’2” tops given your heights.
