Clothes for teen boys?

**cresentheart** · 03-04-2008, 10:44 PM

Ideas for shopping for teen clothing on the internet? Teen boy clothing is hard to find second hand. I do not do the ebay thing, to much time. I do not have a source for hand-me-downs and almost never to yard sales.

Thanks!

well, one place i have bought from is shopgoodwill.com
otherwise, why not try thrift stores?

just like any other stores, the size (in pants especially) will be different among brands.
but tees and hoodies and stuff like that should be pretty easy to find.

good luck!

Have you tried Steve and Barrys? They generally have nice quality clothes that are reasonably priced.

My DS is a name brand junkie - everything is Hollister, Abercrombie, American Eagle, North Face, etc... We do the vast majority of his (and DD's) clothes shopping at Plato's Closet. We are fortunate that there are three within an hour's drive of our home and all are in major college towns. College kids will sell anything to make rent or get beer money.

I know there are four locations in Norht Carolina, but not sure how close to you they are. You can visit their website to find a location www.PlatosColset.com

Between food and clothes for my boys it can be maddening! Sometimes you can find deals. I was shopping at Meijer yesterday and picked up two pairs of jeans, one was $14.99 and the other $21.99. Then I noticed a stack of clearance jeans on the floor so I found two pairs of Levi's for $10.99 each. I thought great price so I put the other two pairs back. When I checked out the two clearance Levi's rang up for $5.00 each! I almost fell over! The cashier mentioned some other clearance items in the women's dept. that were ringing up at $2.00. The thing I didn't understand was the clearance Levi's were the exact same pants I originally picked up. Who knows how they decide that stuff. All I know I left that store with a big smile on my face because I only spent $10 on two pairs of Levi's. By the way this was in the men's department too!

I do not know about online, but I just got my son a whole bunch of clothes cheap on clearance. This last weekend Sears had 50% off clearance that were already 50%off and Macy's had the same deal. (Polo jeans $12, shirts $3) At JC Penney they had a bunch of shirts and and pants for $1.97 each - they're size 14/16 but he'll be into them evenrually. Right now really is a good time to check out clearance prices.
