Pants / Shorts — MuleBuy Spreadsheet Guide
Bottoms come with their own sizing logic — inseam, rise, and taper vary more than tops.

What to Look For

Editor Notes
Sizing
Always request outseam and inseam measurements from your agent. Waist size alone tells an incomplete story.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a good pants / shorts listing in the spreadsheet?
Look for listings with recent QC photos, clear batch codes, community notes about sizing, and color-coded quality tiers. Avoid entries with no verification history.
How do I know which batch to choose?
The spreadsheet uses color coding and batch notes to indicate tier. Cross-reference with recent community QC threads for current production quality.
Should I remove packaging before shipping?
For most categories, removing boxes reduces volumetric weight and shipping cost. For collectors or resale, keep boxes intact but expect higher shipping fees.
Can I return pants / shorts items if QC fails?
Most agent services allow return to supplier if QC photos reveal unacceptable flaws. Confirm your agent's return window before ordering.
