    If you have an ebay account, look for Superdry stuff on there, they have an outlet shop (superdrystore...... I think?) and you can get t-shirts for £10-£12.

    all new with tags, just last season, your DGS's won't know the difference.
  • I've had quite a few superdry t shirts myself and the quality is shocking its that poor.
    I dont know about the quality of the others apart form Adidas and converse, they have been o.k in my opinion.

    I agree with Ralph Lauren.

    I personally don't see teens wear Hollister and A&F as much as they did a year or two ago.

    C&A is still pretty cutting edge I think.

    really? I've never had any problem with any of their items. and my OH has a couple of t-shirts and he has no qualms quality wise. are you sure the ones you got weren't fake? there are a lot of them knocking about.

    My sons 12 and it's all about super dry, vans and monster energy tops (that energy drink) he's a skateboarder/scooter manic and that's what they are all wearing down the ramps. Oh and a baseball cap from china with the letters YMCMB on the front

    Sounds like my lad......except he prefers hi-tops to vans.

    My daughter has a superdry tshirt that I thought wasnt good quality when she bought it. But I've changed my mind as its been washed worn and dried, umpteen times and no bobbling, shrinking, stretching etc.

    I think if you were buying an item from there for someone, I'd recommend a hoodie!

    Dont think so as they were from the Superdry shop. What I've found is that the logos come off/fade/ or crack quickly and I've washed them according to the instructions.
    I've only had the T shirts so I cant comment on the Jeans/Jackets etc. The t shirt issue has put me off buying a hooded top off them.

    I guess they prob have different factories, material suppliers. That could have something to do with it.
