Pricey Fear of God Essentials hoodies are becoming must-have status symbols for tweens and teens<\/a>, leaving some parents stunned by the cost of keeping up with the trend.<\/p>\n

“It felt a little bit expensive for, at the time, 11- and 12-year-olds,” Kinna Thomas, a mother of two, told Business Insider<\/a> in an article published Saturday, of the clothing line Fear of God Essentials.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The clothing line, which ranges in price from around $33 for T-shirts with some kids\u2019 hoodies<\/u><\/a> ranging from about $130 to $200, was created by Jerry Lorenzo and initially launched<\/u><\/a> in 2011, with the Essentials line launched in 2018.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In an interview<\/u><\/a> published on the luxury fashion site Ssense, Lorenzo said the brand is not explicitly Christian, but part of who he is.<\/p>\n

“If someone asks me how Christianity fits into it, it just fits because it\u2019s a part of who I am,” Lorenzo said. “But this is not a Christian clothing brand. It\u2019s not, \u2018Hey, this is about Jesus!\u2019 Although as my brand has grown beyond my expectation, I naturally only want to give glory to him for my success, if you want to call it that. Success to me is the fact that I can come to a meeting with you in my workout clothes. That\u2019s success! That I\u2019m not getting up and putting on a tie.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thomas said it was in 2022 when her boys asked for Fear of God Essentials items for Christmas<\/a>, “I was just like, ‘Wow, what are we doing,'” Thomas said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Business Insider reported Thomas did buy the clothing for her two boys, 15-year-old Timmy and 16-year-old Julian, and that they are staples for her teenagers.<\/p>\n

“I think people like it because it looks clean without doing too much,” Julian said of Essentials hoodies, adding that they’re “really popular” at his school.<\/p>\n

“I also like that Essentials doesn’t try too hard,” Timmy added. “It’s simple, comfortable, and still looks good, which is probably why so many teenagers wear it all the time.”<\/p>\n

According to Business Insider, parents also like the brand because it helps their children express themselves in good ways.<\/p>\n

“My children have a private education at a Christian school<\/a>, and they’re allowed to wear Fear of God Essentials,” Thomas said. “They’re not necessarily allowed to wear some of the other brands.”<\/p>\n

Another mom, Amy Nachon, said she is less worried about the price of the clothing because it is professional and something she can get behind.<\/p>\n

“If my son knows what he wants to wear and has an idea of his style<\/a> and his look, I’ll support him in that,” Nachon said. “Seventh grade is hard enough.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Fear of God Essentials for comment but did not immediately receive a response.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
