On Friday we spent several hours and quite a bit
of money buying stuff in Decathlon. We needed some
specific things and some things were on sale
after the summer. Owing to my body shape change
as a result of losing nearly 20 kg this year,
a lot of my clothes - regular and sport - don't
fit properly. Some I've been able to alter and
some I can get away with, but some are now
uncomfortable to wear or look absurd...
Decathlon design a lot of their own kit and then
have it made all over the world. In that respect they
are no different from many other companies both
British and foreign. What is striking though is that
unlike British and American brands, the stated size is
more often the actual stated size, rather than a vanity
size. For example to buy M&S or Next trousers I
need to buy one size smaller than the quoted size or
they fall down, but at Decathlon, I just need to buy the
correct size and they fit...
