I wore boys or unisex clothes throughout most of my childhood and indeed until I turned 18 and went very female shaped and unisex/mens stuff doesn't fit me anymore.
I hated pink frilly things, I wouldn't touch anything with frilly bits let alone wear it. The lacey frilly crap made me itch and just euch! So I wore boys shoes till they stopped having velcro (at about 11) and boys pants until they went silly shapes. I couldn't even get my super wide feet into crappy girls shoes most of the time. My mum was delighted when at 13 I discovered doc martens and my school didn't stop me wearing them!
The only 'girls' clothes I got tended to be handmedowns from my excessively girlie Godmother's children which were almost all hand made to a superb level of quality.
