I was in a clothing store last week that only started at L for mens clothing. Theres also a shoe store closeby that only sells mens shoes for 40 (EU) and above.

Like wtf, there are plenty of men that are smaller than 180cm and that have small feet. At least give me some options. These are the same stores that complain that everybody orders their shit online nowadays.

Maybe those are specifically for big people, it's really hard for them to find suitable sizes in regular stores.

No, it was a normal store from a german name brand. They had one jacket in S and one shirt in M. Even the employee said that its just a shitty order policy by their bosses.

A shitty order policy or just knowing their regular customers?

The employee told me that there are tons of other men having the same problem at that store. Just because 80% of your customers wear L or larger doesn’t mean you shouldnt stock any inventory for the 20% that wear S or M.

Oh, they are just minmaxing you out. I'm not in retail, but my manager always tells me to only go for the easy 80%

Yeah! Last time I go into a store called “Destination XL.”

(I’m joking, I saw the rest of your comments about this.)
