Said someone who's never shopped for men's clothes.
I bought two pairs of jeans the other day, both exactly the same size, both the same style, but just different colors. The blank ones fit, the blue ones do not fit, explain that.
My personal theory is that each pair is manufactured in a different factory, and their tolerances are so ridiculously lacks that they can produce different products the same supposedly identical blueprint.
Ya it happens a lot with different colorways. Often the black one is different than the others as the dyeing process is different and can affect the shrinkage. They were likely the exact same size before they were dyed and poor QA processes allowed one to become way different afterwards.
