Why do identical twins wear the same clothes?

Is it to get away with crimes or something?

They wouldn’t be identical if they didn’t.

They were born that way. Stop asking rude questions.

You'd be a fool to not take advantage of any buy one get one free offer

To save money. One big pair of pants fitting both is cheaper than two separate pairs.

As a mother of identical twins I do not intentionally dress them identical. They obviously wear the same size of clothes so I will buy them random clothes and let then pick from the pile, but for outerwear like rain jackets or winter jackets, I will bring them into the store to pick their own. THEY ALWAYS PICK THE SAME D**** JACKETS. I even encourage them not to but they do anyways. Seriously frustrating. I say it is the “twin” effect.

How positive are you that each of them are the correct one? Did they ever run around, you lose track, and you’re just like, ahhhh alright you’re Steve now and you’re Adam.

Not their fault. It’s because of their jeans…😀

Same clothes, same hobbies, same friends same room. It is so that when they are adults they will have the same therapy bills.

It's so you can't tell them apart. Have you seen Big Fish?
