Just a quick note: the new website (which is set to debut in a week) is going to divide the shop into “Men” and “Ladies” (amongst other categories). So, men’s/unisex sizes will be listed separately from ladies’ size products. This is in an effort to make things as clear as possible for my customers (every so often, someone will order a “Medium” but really want a “Ladies’ Medium,” for instance), and to be able to show the products on a wide range of sizes, and it’s seemingly a standard practice for shops that stock items in unisex and ladies cut.
However, this raises an interesting dilemma. No offense to the ladies that DO wear what the industry refers to as “ladies’ sizes,” but they’re too small to fit most of the women I know, and there are plenty of women who could wear the “ladies size” but prefer the unisex/men’s cut. I don’t like that the industry standard for “ladies” sizes are quite small, but it is what it is. In order to make things easier for all of you to get exactly the size you want, my best option is to just roll with it.
So, please don’t think that by dividing the store into “dudes” and “ladies” I am hating on any woman who doesn’t fit into the standard ladies size (or any dude who wears a ladies size - it happens!). Whatever size you wear, I love you regardless. I’m probably thinking too far into this - it IS an industry standard, so most people probably don’t bat an eye at it anymore. Maybe this will just be a good blog entry to point people to if they get mad at the store being divided up into arbitrary categories (BTW, you’ll also be able to view all products at once if you like).
