I got two work shirts at the same time. Both size 44, same manufacturer, theoretically identical shirts.

Almost a full letter grade size difference, one is basically a L and the other was almost an XL.

How do they fuck up 2 supposedly identical shirts? Fucked if I know.

It's so frustrating. I've most often experienced this with two of the same item in different colors or fabrics, but not always. Once I was trying on a particular jacket at Uniqlo and the size medium was super tiny but the size small fit just right. Did they mix up the size tags sewn into the jackets, or what?

Well, clothes are still sewn by low-paid workers in sweatshops, not industrial robots, so I guess some variation is to be expected.

Where were they manufactured?
