Why your jeans don't fit; Where your returns end up: CBC's Marketplace cheat sheet | CBC News

Models show ill-fitting Abercrombie & Fitch jeans

"It's very difficult for women to find out which brand is OK," she said, "But at the same time, it flatters you." She said when people feel good about the size, they may purchase more as a result. The mail carrier and lender announced in October that 6,000 Canada Post locations across the country would soon offer individuals small loans of between $1,000 and $30,000. It was known as the MyMoney program.

CBC News has asked Canada Post and TD Bank for more details on what sort of "processing issues" led to the decision — and what the status of existing applications is. Forget Black Friday deals, items sold at places like Ollive's Auction in Calgary can be found at a deep discount because they've likely been purchased and returned once already.It's a type of business that's growing as online shopping, and online returning, have become ever more popular. Some research suggests that 30 per cent of what's bought online ends up being sent back.

Thank you for bringing us the news we need.

The experts found that have not published an actual legit article since the conservative government was in office.

You should be investigating Plumber's Butt

So glad our taxpayer-supported media conducted this study. It's way more important than everything else going on in Canada right now.

Ya think?!?!

Try them on?

Probably the same goes with belt sizes too... especially those from MarksCanada

Slow day of news.

Clothing manufacturers lie to us so why don’t feel as implausibly fat as we actually are.

Holy fuck,this is the hard hitting news canadian tax payers are paying for.

shoes and t shirt sizes also not always correct

some days i like tight jeans/pants other days sweats or less tight jeans/pants but are pants sizes not always correct yes

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Maybe try them on first.

Why are Canadian tax dollars being wasted on this kind of fluff reporting?

I expected something about the labels being racist or something

I’m shocked!!! I actually thought I had rapid weight loss and gain. Next they will be telling me my jeans shrink in the wash!!!!

Needed an investigation to tell people what they know for years?!? Women’s sizes are sized up and numbered down to feel bettter about yourself as they have down with men’s for well over a decade now

An increasing number of Canadians have discovered that news reporting by a taxpayer-funded CBC is becoming increasingly biased and inaccurate. ✔️

CBCPitchbot , you can give up now.... 🤣

Another Big Belt conspiracy theory

Blame climate change !

DefundCBC

Why all of a sudden is this worrying? This has been going on for decades

Those “hot button” issues are important to Canadians? Lol Don’t get much for over a BILLION, 200 MILLION any more.

defundcbc

WOW what a discovery?! You just noticed?🤣

Wow. CBC is really tackling the big issues brave

Write a story on the lies of the Trudeau government

This can be used to justify being fat.

I guess this is why so many folks are walking around with, what they call, Plumbers Butt. They need to be more accurate with the sizes LOL

CBC NEWS YOUR FAKE NEWS

How come pockets are not mentioned!! I get it it’s an article on sizing but come on!! Pants should not have pockets designed to only hold a single chapstick and nothing else!!!

I'm 32 . I just need for Marketplace to investigate the scales 🤣🤣🤣

This may sound crazy but, instead of doing some fancy investigation, maybe just ask anyone who has bought jeans in the last 20 yrs, possibly even yourself.

CBC out here with the real journalism

More riveting journalism from the CBC

'A CBC Marketplace investigation has found that the Trudeau regime's testimony at the EA commission was rarely accurate.' Fixed.

This article is worth the bail out money CBC gets 🤣🇨🇦

Are you calling me Fat?

That's good news for Rosie.

Inaccurate sizing isn’t the only issue. Jeans have moved away from 100% cotton to mixed fibre fabrics. These cheaper fabrics stretch out very quickly & do not retain shape. This is also why jeans are no longer hard wearing. Jeans can fit when tried on,then be baggy an hour later.

I don’t think this applies all that much for men, we buy jeans that fit, I have never heard a man say he bought jeans because of the size. I guess we are not as easy to manipulate

Tax payer dollars hard at work.

Pick a brand and stick with them.

yep...

This is news?... Why not report on how Trudeau lied while under oath? BTW.. great job an keeping Canadians informed. Happy to see our tax dollars at work.

So? This is news

'Rarely accurate'. Kinda like all the vaccine efficacy claims.

Bruh most womens bottoms dont even have real sizes.

What a 'waist' of our time ;)

The CBC wonders why some want the people want them defunded. They have to be subsidized to the tune of 100’s of millions of dollars and they spend money on a survey on clothing waist sizes. Ask anyone who has ever bought pants.

Just like the amount of funding us taxpayers give you to keep the lights on. Rarely accurate.

lol 😂 no shit nothing new there

And the brand company wonder why there’s so many online return they are thinking of either jacking up the price or make you pay for the return🙄

CBC doesn't have anything of importance to report anymore.

Was wondering when you'd get around to investigating this - not!!!!

Average woman’s waist is 34 Did you sample a fat farm?

Been saying it for years! I’m a 30!

The World: Hey the people are uprising in China. The CBC: This is why you aren't as fat as you think you are.

needed pants for my buddy's wedding, tried on 3 pairs from 3 different manufacturers all size 32 waist, all 3 fit differently.

CBC get 1.2 billion of taxpayers money and this is the crap they come up with in the name of investigative journalism

Because they're jeans, horrid garment.

Journalism at its finest. Never stop reaching new heights CBC. The skies the limit for you. TrudeaMustGo TrudeauCorruption TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada WEFpuppet

Maybe some of us like the extra room lol😊

Damn! You mean Rosemary Barton is really NOT a size 10?🤣

Another wasted money study by the Canadian Propaganda Corporation. Soon, losers will be 'protecting' obese people's feelings by making fake waist sizes. Seems like a joke, but literally nothing is beyond the worthless woke mob's insanity.

“Why your jeans don’t fit: A study in buying the wrong size”

Slow news day. Lmao 🤣

Haha. 40 years late on this one.

Now do condoms

Nothing better to report on?

Thought it would be racism

I'm old enough and wise enough to try on every pair of pants that I buy.

Look at all the freedumbers feeling the need to make stupid comments on an article about jeans just because it is CBC. 🤣

Smells like shit! Oh wait it’s just cbcnews

Same with shirts. I have a 40' chest and a 30' waist. I used to take a North American size medium. Now it's an XS (extra small) or a Chinese XL. I can go camping in a men's XL. We've gone over the edge. Calling a 40' waist a 36' sells to our complacent society. Sad.

You call this news ? Do some real reporting DefundCBC canada

Just like our government 'health experts' covid modeling over the last 2 years

You mean CBC is like jeans it’s rarely accurate !!

Lol.. this is the stuff you find important to investigate Oh how irrelevant your organization has become!

Nice deep dive. Get the bottom of those fat bottom jeans.

Typical CBC The world is collapsing partially so to their attacks on the establishment’s that held it together and yet all they can report on is Jean sizes

No duh

This is what my taxes pay for? DefundCBC

Hope your so called journalists investigate mandates and vax injuries !!!

That’s what our tax dollars are spent on at cbc?

That’s generally what happens when you have slave labour creating your products.

What next, are small medium and large appropriately labelled? My tax dollars supporting the CBC hard at work.

That's important investigative journalism.

Meanwhile in China.

Lol Did you spend a lot on that episode? Because I would have happily told you that for half the money you spent.

The extent of CBC's investigative Journalism - waist sizes are rarely accurate.... Meanwhile DiedSuddenly , HunterBidensLaptop FTX EmergenciesActInquiry

Most Canadians now know cbc news is corrupt and rarely accurate.

It's probably not your fault if your jeans don't fit | CBC NewsCBC Marketplace looked at men’s and women’s jeans from some of Canada’s popular brands to see if the waist size that’s labelled matches up with the actual waist measurement. Only a couple did, and experts say this is likely by design to get consumers to buy the product. cbcmarketplace One huge flaw in the article exposed by the Old Navy high rise is this: it appears they didn't take into consideration the rise. Both men and women have smaller hips than waist but most jeans don't fit at the waist line, but below. High rise jeans sit above the waist line. cbcmarketplace Most women know this already. Sizing has been an issue in the clothing industry for decades. subliminal advertising for the ages
