    Pants sizes. For women, drop the even/odd numbering for women and juniors and move to waist and inseam like men. For everyone, implement some sort of standard policy where the actual measured size can’t be more than an inch off the stated size (to account for variability in manufacturing and such).

      Yes, great answer! Not just pants though, we need a standard size for all women’s clothing.

      Yes please, I’m so tired trying to guess if this 33 is a 34, 35, or 36.

      sometimes the clothes measurements are body measurements, and sometimes it’s the exact measurement of the cloth itself, and sometimes it’s the circumference of the relaxed waistband.
