Overlap in sizes for adult & youth suit sizes

[Torchwatch]

In the UK VAT (Value Added Tax) is applied to adult clothing but not on clothing for the under 16s. Two identical suits may therefore be packed for a small adult and large child, the child suit should be cheaper as it doesn't carry VAT, currently 20%.
The only way to be sure that they are identical is to take them out of the packets and compare them.
A friend in Canada wanted a pair of England soccer shorts, I found that the 16 yr shorts were identical to the small, 32" adult shorts and much cheaper. Just because Umbro did it on this occasion does not mean that every manufacturer will do it on every occasion.
I have heard of small adults who have managed to avoid paying VAT for many years before realising that children's clothes that they have always worn lack the style and sophistication they require a mature adult.
