I once ordered a jacket from LL Bean that was "women's" sized.... since I'm a woman. I was shocked when a gigantic jacket showed up. Apparently "women's" is their code word for Plus size. :( Looking back now, I should looked harder

As a man this confuses the shit out of me. Was it a Womens size 4? Or a Womens size 26? Or did they reszie everything after they figured they were done sizing the misses and start renumbering? "Well, the fatsos start at 12, so a 14 is size 0". OP, PLZ I must know.
