I don’t know about RealTrees! Our kids are young (6 and 4) but my husband coaches HS soccer and those boys certainly don’t seem into it. All his students still wear soccer shorts year round! But I can’t say I know that many teenage boys either, as far as I know they aren’t popular here in Greensboro. Thank you for the men and depression book. We are fast approaching the anniversary of my uncles death and while a brain tumor killed him, his lifelong depression and refusal to talk to anyone about his feelings were a major contributing factor. My husband is always in favor of ME going to individual therapy but loves to tell me how “fine” he is. And same with every man I know including my dad who has big issues with his bio dad who abandoned his mom and him at 9 mo. So I am looking at that book right now. And thanks for the clearance headbands too, I’m starting to run again bc my fam always does a December 5k and I forgot how much sweat drips in my eyes!

I have decided that it must be urban/suburban in non-hunting zones!

I feel so out of the loop! I didnt know about RealTrees and I have teenage/young adult sons. Of course, we live in a place where hunting is common and all of that stuff would be worn non-ironicly, so maybe that's it?

Yes, I think it's only in places where nobody hunts lol!! I did wonder if it was popular in places where hunting is actually a normal activity, like where I grew up! So that's good to know! I just think it's so wild that they are this popular. The Mercari store where I found those ones at 150 bucks is based South Dakota, and I thought what a genius entrepreneur. This resale shop owner is to find this stuff and sell it to a teenagers in Los Angeles 🤣
