I'm looking for the really, really relaxed fit jeans.

Carhart is way oversized. I wear a large in most brands and a medium in just a few. But I can swim around in a Medium Carhart. Way too big.
I'm not sure why they are so miss sized. |

Vanity sizes are creeping into men's clothing. Get out a tape measure, and see if the pants are, in fact, 34 inches.

Some of my older Carhartt shirts (all medium) are a little smaller. Some are huge. Same goes for their pants too.

I live in a farming community and I have to buy one size smaller when I buy Carhartt stuff, they are big!

Every brand uses different tolerances. As a summer job, i worked for Harley Davidson as a quality inspector. Most of the clothes came from overseas so i remember a lot of variance in the sizing. Some measurements allowed for 3/4 of an inch.
At the store i can try on several different pants of the same brand but fit too loose or too tight. I dont think i gained weight within the 10 minutes. Eta clothes could be getting bigger b/c we are getting taller too. |

I'm 5'7", 137lbs and the slimmest slimfit is like wearing a damn parachute. I look like a freaking clown in anything but custom fit stuff.

Carhartt jeans on the other hand seem to run very tight. Lost 20 pounds this year bringing me from a 33" waist to a 32". I bought 34x32 to carry my 1911 in. The Carhartt brand jeans I still have seem to be just as tight.

What was a large at one time is now a medium.
This helps the fat boys think they have lost weight. |

Manufacturers are making clothes bigger. Bought two Carhartt medium tshirts last week, huuuge. Bought a pair of 34x30 5.11 pants yesterday, all my others are 34's. These new pants seem like they're 36's. Quote HistoryQuoted:

These new pants seem like they're 36's. Vanity sizing. It improves sales and retains customers by making them feel better about their weight/size. It worked for women's clothes, and a few years ago some brands started in on men's clothes. Quoted:
