[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 6 foot 4 inch 175 pound 18 year old son accidentally put on his younger brother's gym type shorts the other day because they have shorts that look so similar.  Yes, by the end of the day, before figuring it out, he was complaining that they were a little snug, but they fit him!       They were a size child XXL.       There can't be that much difference in brands that an 8 year old wouldn't be able to fit into these shorts.    I don't understand how it can be.  Maybe the shorts were washed and shrunk a lot or something?

Sorry this is absolutely BS. I have a 15yo who is 6'3" as well as a 10yo sono who wears size kids L or XL. There is ZERO chance of mistaking a kids' XXL for clothes that a tall adult man could wear and there is ZERO chance that a 6'4" man walked around all day in kids' clothing. You're literally making something up to shame a stranger on the internet.[/quote]

DP.  I don't think it's BS.  My DS is 5' 11" and skinny.  He likes Adidas athletic pants.  The boys XL are way bigger and longer than the men's XS and S.  The boy's XL fall off of my DS and are too long.  The men's XS fit perfectly but are too short.  The men's smalls are too big and the right length, but not as big or as long as the boy's XL.  We ended up keeping the men's S became the boy's XL looked like multiple sizes too big for him.  Most men who wear XS or S are skinny.  The same can't be said about boys who wear XL, so boys XL are sized much larger than men's XS or S.[/quote]
