Details

If you must know, I do most of my clothes shopping at major retailers in the U.S. This is mostly Belk, J.C. Penney, and Kohl's. If that's you as well, the odds are good the distribution of my clothes will closely resemble yours. A recent move I made resulted in me donating a fair bit of my short-sleeved polo shirts. I did not buy any new shirts, though. Thus, I copied that information from a previous version of the data.
