Not only has the whole women's clothing size been changing over time, but I have been told for years that at any given time a size 10 at Target/Walmart/etc would be a size 8 in Dillard's/Macy's/etc.
With stores betting a woman would pay extra money to get the lower number. Granted, women are under much more societal pressure to have that lower size.

Welcome to foreign manufacturing. I remember when clothes were made in the USA and actually were true to size.

I like good circulation. Tight collars for example, they cut off blood from to brain. But hey, let’s face it — some guys truly are vain about their large bellies.

My problem is that I wear a size 38, but my legs are so short my wife has to alter them for me. The only length I can find is a 30, but my inseam is 27. What was worse was that I USED to wear a size 46.

I am a 40” waist, 26.5” inseam.
Try finding THAT size anywhere.
Funny thing is, I’m not THAT fat or short (5’7, a tad under 220 lbs), but I have short legs relative to height.
The only place I can find them is Land’s End or JC Penney’s (both online only unless I custom order).
