This kind of thing is why I'm happy that mens' clothes often use actual inch measurements rather than abstract 'sizes'.

At least for popular brands of jeans, the "inch" measurements have succumbed to the exact same nonsense: https://www.esquire.com/style/mens-fashion/a8386/pants-size-...

That article was written in 2010, but I can't help agreeing with its conclusion:

"But vanity waist sizing is so entrenched, it couldn't possibly be changed overnight, at least not without a government mandate. The only solution seems to be a gradual, year-by-year shaving of quarter-inch by quarter-inch until, in 2021, men's pants finally correspond with the label numbers — conveniently just in time for the New World Order's switch to mandatory full jumpsuits."

That sounds terrible, but it could still be an improvement over 2020.

For many years, I've noticed that 32 in one brand isn't 32 in another.
