It has been awhile since I was in middle school, or even had contact with boys that age, but isn't there a growth spurt that occurs around that time?
In other words, if you bought it this year for Christmas, would your son even be able to wear it in 7th or 8th grade?
I agree 100% with the posters who stated that kids can be cruel and that it might rub some of the older members of the cross country team the wrong way.
The best suggestion was to go to the PTA, but instead of expensive letter jackets (that again could be outgrown) how about the pullover mentioned above? It could say "SchoolName" Cross-Country. They could sell them for all sports/cheerleading etc., with only those truly on the team eligible to buy them. This would be a great fundraiser and also a nice reward for those kids making the team. And... if a growth spurt happens they are much cheaper to replace every year!
