Sport interest and involvement affect the choice of clothing for boys attending Arrowhead. Arrowhead boys often match their clothing choices to showcase their interests and hobbies.

There is the age old decisions of fashionable versus comfortability, sporty versus stylish. Most often, people dress in a way to fit and show their hobbies.

Mike Olsen, a self proclaimed jock sophomore at Arrowhead says, “I mostly shop at Mid-city Sports, Old Navy, and Nike Outlet and I usually go shopping probably once a month or so.”

Olsen is involved with the Arrowhead Varsity football team, and also follows pro and college sports teams.

Olsen says, “I follow the Packers, Badgers, and Wolverines. Every time a football game is on, I’m watching it.”

Olsen says, “For school I typically wear khakis and a sweatshirt with some sort of sport insignia on it or an athletic t-shirt, showing my favorite teams. My friends usually do the same.”

Olsen is always representing his favorite sport teams to school.

However, when it comes to comfort or style, Olsen says, “I usually dress for comfort and even when I’m dressing for style as well.”

When it comes to the middle ground dude, Austin Konen, a junior at AHS. Konen says, “I shop mostly at sports stores like Finish Line, but occasionally I’ll spice it up with H&M and Zumiez. Kohl’s as well.”

Konen is involved with intramural sports such as basketball and running. Also he is involved with several different clubs such as Earth Club, Academic Decathlon, and theatre.

Konen says, “Despite my several interests in different areas of hobbies, my friends and I all tend to dress the same. Usually khakis with some sort of sport shirt and vans, often times I’ll wear a nice hoodie with a band name on it as well. I dress for looks mostly rather than comfort.”

Joey Nelson, a junior at Arrowhead, is involved with music and the arts, rather than with sports or academic clubs.

Nelson says, “I usually shop at store like Pacsun, Zumiez, and local skate shops. I go shopping probably once every other month usually with my friends.”

In contrast to Olsen and Konen, Nelson says, “I don’t really follow many sports teams. I’d rather hangout with friends or listen to music.”

When it comes to style versus comfort, Nelson says, “My style is comfort.”
