Some good ideas on here.

Apart from his main gift I have got my 14 year old:
Boss black belt
Nike speed jump rope
Berghaus half zip hoodie (no hood on it)
Nike 95 trainers
Pop vinyl figure
Pj’s
Chocolate
Hope that helps for ideas 🥰
Thanks floridatilly - I’d forgotten about this thread! I’ll have a look through and see if I can get any ideas. Unfortunately my ds is not into sports either - so basically I’m stuck with tech/gadgets! We have bought him:
A gaming mouse
A new motherboard
A Rick & Morty hoodie
A “what if” book which takes ridiculous questions and gives scientific answers
Chocolate
Pjs, dressing gown and fluffy socks
But dd has loads more - she’s so much easier to buy for!

What dressing gown have you got him?
My 14 year old has far less than my daughter and my 7 year (not money wise but he doesn’t understand money)
He could do with a dressing gown but he is in mens now and all the mens ones I have seen look grandad ish 🙈

I struggled too! I ended up getting him one from Next.

M&S is also worth a look as their kids clothes go up to age 16

That’s a nice one. He likes an hood and it needs to be super soft. The ones i have seen have a grandad print when you look close up 🤣🤣

I got my 17 year old DS a Jedi dressing gown a few years ago, it is super soft and has a hood. It was from John Lewis, they don't seem to sell them anymore, but Amazon do have some very similar ones.

Similar requirements here too! My 14yr old is 6ft 2 and hoods are essential. Last year, I got him the best ever dressing gown, really thick and fleecy, huge hood, and dark grey. He's barely out of it, and it washes perfectly. I think it was from Tesco of all places. It was about £25/30 which I thought very pricey but it's actually been worn so much I'm glad I didn't go for a cheaper option.

He's getting a snuggle blanket thing this year, which is thinner, but I think he will also love:

I went a bit crazy on Sunday and just attacked Christmas with a scattergun approach!
I usually deliberate for ages but we’ve been having work done in the house which has taken so much of our time in the lead up that I just haven’t had time to think too much about it.

DS 16 (almost 17) is has

Nike Blazers (a bit like converse)
T-shirts
Long sleeved tops
Hoodies
A sweatshirt I had to order from France because it’s out of stock everywhere!
A gazillion pairs of white sports socks
Boxers
A Sauvage gift set
FIFA 21
A book called How the Germans do it Better
Pyjamas/loungewear
Ritter Sport
A hair drying wrap thing! (He steals mine!)
Hairdryer

That must be it. I just saw this meme which seems to sum up my Christmas shopping this year 😂
