Dressing
One of the major problems transgender people may encounter is dressing. The clothing and shoe sizes we need are not always available in ordinary stores. Internet shops are therefore a great help.
Unfortunately sizes are not the same every where and buying through internet can be a real hazard game. So before buying anything, first have a look at the return/refunding policies these shops offer. Most of the shops you will find here are specialized in oversize and/or undersize items. They are by no way aimed at the transgender community only! Simply, not all humans are made on the same model.
A last thing: on every site look if there is a size conversion page, because not all shops convert the same way. This depends extremely on the brands they sell. And, not to forget: ladies and gentlemen don’t use the same size charting. So you need to determine your correct size in the sizing system you are used to first, before trying to find out what a size you will have in an other system.
This list is by no means complete, so if you know good references, don’t hesitate and contact me to have them added to the list.
