Icon8 I've had enough of this large person unfairness!

Why are off the rack (convenience) XXXL mens sizes different from store to store (Hermes, Lululemon, Gucci, LV, etc...)!

Why can't a successful (wealthy, Harvard) person (>0.0001%) find consistency in sizing here?

Anyone in the garment business or owner of a factory know?


Thank you.

Because in China in the factories there aren't many people that size to measure for sizing????

Just guessing.

What kind of person stiffs someone on Name that Foliage???

Of course, I said leaves, and they stiffed me on that as well.

You have to wonder who is operating these bogus contests.

Thank you.

I think you're being a bit of a martyr. I buy clothes that are small, medium and large depending how the maker.

Some might say it's a form of discrimination, and that's not tolerated.....is it?

At XXXL, the clothes might only be 50% of the story.

It's posts like this that make me wish we had a "like" button.
