I will definitely get him the batting gloves too. He is all about matching and has to match his sneakers to his hat.
I had to smile at this. Every winter, my S16 plays flag football, and I coach him. It's only flag, and to save $$$ we usually just have him continue to wear whatever cleats he used for Fall baseball, rather than buy him football-specific cleats.
Well, this Fall, we got him some pretty cool-looking baseball cleats that he had THOUGHT were blue-and-black, but turned out to actually be PURPLE-and-black. So when we went to our flag football draft (where we pick team names from a pre-approved uniform vendor list), he said "Dad, if they do pro teams this year, get the Ravens. And if they do college, get TCU."
Because both have purple-and-black color schemes.
Our team never won a game, but S16 sure looked pretty spiffy in his color-coordinated jersey and cleats!!!
