    I went shopping for some shirts today. I bought a few which were all the same make and size.

    When I tried them on half of them were too small.

    Why does this happen? It could well be this particular shop as it's happened before.

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    Happens all the time. Sometimes I'm a 12, other times I'm a 16, in a matter of minutes :eek:
    Probably because most clothes are made in China now, and they just stick on any old lable.

    I bought a nice pair of jeans in topshop a while ago. I liked them so much I wanted to buy them in a different colour too. I wasn't gonna try them on as they were exactly the same except for the colour. Anyway, they looked small so I compared them to the ones I bought which were still in the shop. When I held them up the waist band of the pair I wanted to buy were an inch shorter. It seemed to be a problem with all of them.
    I checked the style numbers and they were exactly the same, so I think it's just a lack of quality at factory level.
    Unfortuantely they were out of the next size up so I left them in the end.
