Vanity Sizing Makes Its Way into Men’s Fashion; Pants Labeled Smaller to Make Dudes Feel Less Fat




Not cool. Not freaking cool. Yeah vanity sizing makes us feel better sometimes but you know what? It would be pretty damn nice if we all new what our legit size was. If we lived in a world where we could go to Old Navy and Prabal Gurung and ask for the same exact size and know it would fit every time. Yes that would be nice.

Now men have to face this problem at retailers like Old Navy and Gap who have both been doing this with womenswear forever. A pair of pants with a waist of 36 at Gap are actually a size 39 and at Old Navy actually a whopping size 41. Cray!
