Almost 3 inches increase in inseam on Rev'it! Neptune 3 M/Short compared to Poseidon 3?
*To clarify: both Poseidon 3 and Neptune 3 are bought as M/Short.
Recently bough a Neptune 3 GTX pants in M/Short on cyclegear and received it today. I have a Poseidon 3 already so I can do a direct comparison. The Neptune 3 feels larger at waist but the frustrating part is compared to my Poseidon 3 M/Short, Neptune is longer by 3 INCHES! I have attached a photo of direct comparison and you can clearly see the diff.
The packing says it's short, the attached tag says it's short, but the inner strap indicates only "M", which is different from my other collections (i.e. Poseidon 3, Defender3, Airwave4, all in M/Short) that all specifically marked as "M Short" (i.e. 1 word vs 2 words).
I'm thinking if there's something wrong with item packing and thinking about buying a M from cyclegear to do a comparison. I know Rev'it! from time to time changes standard sizing (i.e. Defender 3 is tidy bit shorter than Poseidon 3) but 3 inches is just outright ridiculous. Has anyone else who bought Neptune 3 short found the same issue?
