Ever Wonder Why You Buy More RTW Shirts Than RTW Trousers

Men often purchase more RTW (Ready-to-Wear) shirts than RTW trousers, and a key reason lies in the nature of how these garments fit the body.

Shirts, even if they don't fit perfectly, can still appear acceptable because they hang from the shoulders. Minor imperfections in fit are less noticeable and can be easily concealed. For example, a slightly loose collar or sleeves that are a bit long can often go unnoticed or can be hidden under a jacket.

In contrast, trousers have a much more demanding role. They need to fit snugly around the waist, hips, and crotch area, areas where the body’s shape and movement require a precise fit. Any issues in the construction or fit of trousers become immediately apparent – they can sag, bunch up, or feel uncomfortable. This difference in how fit is perceived and managed between shirts and trousers leads men to subconsciously opt for more RTW shirts, as they seem like a safer, more convenient choice.

Understanding this subconscious decision-making can help men make more informed choices, especially when they realize that while a shirt can be forgiving, trousers truly benefit from a custom fit that provides both comfort and style.
