Supplies
Backpacks, lunchbox, school stuff. All the necessities.
My son is so hard on everything. I was assured that a North Face backpack should last for years. So I am willing to give it a try instead of buying a new backpack every year. 🤞. This is the one he picked.
The North Face Recon Backpack
Calculator for my middle school boy. He picked this one. He liked the colors.

He needs wired ear buds for school. So I picked a cheaper option because I know I lrobably won’t see them again, or he will lose them quickly. So he picked out these ones from Amazon.

Clothes
Back to school wardrobe. He ALWAYS needs new clothes. He is growing like a weed.
My son is wanting this. And I think I’m good with it because if I buy it big I know he will wear it for as long is it fits. I like it and he does too so it’s a win for me!
Nike Kids' Sportswear Full-Zip Hooded Denim Jacket
We are moving into football season, and my son hit a growth spurt so is needing a TON of new clothes. This is a great tee for the Fall season.

Buying multiple colors of these shorts. He loves these ones. And again, he went through a huge growth spurt. So needing a few more pair. Definitely black and gray.
Nike Kids' Dri-FIT Multi Woven Shorts
This is already on the way. He has really been wanting this.
Jordan Boys' Jumpman Air Embroidered Acid Wash T-Shirt
These will be a must this year. He doesn’t wear jeans too much. Mostly sweats. So we will need to stock up on a bunch.
Kids' Nike Sportswear Club Fleece Joggers
He had these last year and wore them a ton. So will be buying him a pair for this year that will fit him!
Kids' Nike Sportswear Club Fleece Cargo Joggers
We are going to be trying some wider leg pants this year too. Trying to keep him open to change. Lol.

He is thinking this would be good to throw over his tees in the fall in case it gets cold. He overwears his clothes over and over. So I could see him using this frequently.

Football and basketball needs.
