Generally Fredrik avoided Hogsmeade as one of his least favorite places to go. Partly it was because of all the kids which got on his nerves in an adult setting really, but mostly it was because of the alcohol. While they served a few small things that were close to what he liked, he wasn't allowed to order any of them due to age. A fatal blow! So he avoided places like the Three Broomsticks which served watery butter and the kids drank it like mad. Why? He did not get it, lousy things they tricked kids into wanting instead of the proper drinks...
Today however he had to get clothes so he could avoid it no longer.
Slipping into Glad Rags, Fredrik made his way over to the men's section and scowled. Dressed you would think he would be okay with modern styles, but these were Jari's clothes not his and t-shirts were not something he considered wearable by themselves. So he was in the button up section for the first ten minutes, finding at least three shirts that fit he thought he would allow himself to wear. Then over to the dressing room with two robes and a pair of slacks for general wear. he was in the dressing room for a couple of minutes (as with most guys, if one fit then he was good and who cared about tailoring) and then out, throwing all six purchases over one arm as he headed over to socks and underwear.
His choices were all to the normal teen boring enough to let him get past without comment he thought, though he had not planned it to look like his mother dressed him, but that's how it came across. Getting more socks, he glanced down at his shoes wondering if he needed to get new tennis shoes yet; his mother did let him buy his own clothes to fit in more knowing her son was responsible enough on that end. A glance around to make sure no one was watching and he sided into the underwear row, making another face.
Who would you want boxers with a big smiley face on them?
The red ones with the Quidditch player on them were clearly targeted to students of the Lion sort as were the emerald ones with the quick release tabs (gods teenagers were a real hormone mess) and there was no way he was getting the ones with the one big eye on the front. That was just weird! And they were purple! Fredrik had, thankfully, managed to avoid the 'one-eyed monster' jokes enough he had no clue what that was all about...
