I've worn american eagle for years as a petite female that doesn't fit clothes in more stores. Over the past few years they've changed their sizes to accommodate plus size people which I really love but wish they could accommodate one without forgetting about the other end. In that change their 000 has become the old 2. I have old american eagle shorts that are 0 that are almost too small but when I try on 000 it falls off my waist (picture attached). Besides all sizing issues their service is horrible. I had to search the store for an employee to open a dressing room by asking other customers where they were. Once I got in a dressing room I couldn't get my first pair of shorts on to try before the same employee pounded on my dressing room door asking if I needed help startling me. After coming out i asked if 000 was the smallest size they carry to clarify and they gave me a dirty look before saying no. Almost walked out crying I was so upset. Didn't buy anything and don't plan on buying anything again.
