    You know it’s weird, I just went to a clothing store to buy some slack pants, and was unable to find any pants my size. Not “the pants weren’t the style” or “color” or “price” or “fabric” I wanted, they were all too tall! I mean, this strikes me as pretty strange because I’m 163 cm (5’4") tall which is pretty average… am I supposed to see all these tall clothes as “aspirational” and magically grow 10 centimeters??

      Most retail pants are made longer and then you adjust it to suit your size. It’s usually FOC or RM 10 only.

      Usually clothing stores have an altering counter for you to bring your pants to do final adjustment after payment.

        shame certain material cannot be altered. just purchased the really nice stretch work pants from Uniqlo. but it has polyester in it so they can’t alter it.
