Toddler boy shopping help

Ben's a big kid.  Going to be in 2T tops and 18-24 bottoms for summer.  But I'm not loving anything I'm seeing at the places I usually shop for Kate (babyGap, miniBoden, Old Navy).  I have a more "skater/urban" style for him than preppy.  I don't like the Gymboree animal appliques or the J&J prepster stuff.  Any other places I should look?

  • I am sure you have looked, but Mini Boden. H&M has cute stuff, but it can be hit or miss.

    Michelle gets all of Jake's stuff at Bloomingdales or Lucky Jeans (they have good sales), and Jake has that urban style :)

  • do you have a crazy 8 near you?  they definitely have some more urban things, especially for boys.  They are a slightly cheaper and more urban subsidiery of Gymboree.(I have found their quality to be good)  That is all that comes to mind right now!
  • Ha - you said you looked at Mini Boden. Sorry :)

    By the way, I can't believe he is going to be in 2T this summer!

  • Ditto H&M if you like a more urban style.  I haven't been there recently though so I don't know what they currently have out.

  • I am actually having the same problem.  I have not seen much I like.  Try H&M-I have gotten some really cute things for the boys there.  Prices are good too.  Other ideas are Crazy8.com, crewcuts.com and the green dog line at Macy's
  • I really like Quick Silver and other surf type brands for DS in the summer. Nordstrom usually carries them.
  • I was going to suggest Nordstrom - I also like this store for fun t-shirts.

    In the summer, I often pair shirts like that with various plaid/madras shorts.  And then polo shirts, too, for a preppier look.

  • Dillards had some pretty cute skater stuff when we were there today.  DH even picked a shirt for DS and he NEVER does that.
