We all know, women sizes differs between brands, models and countries. Men had the war to tha k for standardize sizing due to uniform requirement. Need a pair of pants? Hip size and leg lenght is all you need! For wonen though, it depends wich country, company, cut of pants. You'vegot hips sizing, waist size, various non descriptive leg lenght ( Regular, for short or tall legs), etc. I think it is just tedious to shop for clothing at this point. What's yourtakeon a solution to simplify all this spaguetti of size clothing?

I don’t disagree with all the trouble with women sizes, but as a somewhat taller than average man with long arms, whose belly did not grow with torso length, who likes to stand upright with shoulders back, I can tell you, shopping for men’s clothes is not the simple thing you paint it here.

And god forbid those times when I am fit and have muscles. That’s nightmarish for finding clothes.

When men wear clothes like sacks, you can imagine that it’s not because they don’t care, but because they gave up.
