When people see these two, those with low cognitive resolution perceive them as “two identical pairs of pants.”

You’ll notice a lot of differences if the resolution is high enough.

  • Wrong color.
  • There is a wrinkle on one side.
  • The structure around the waist is different.
  • Center Press (example on this page)

Communication a few days ago

  • Wife: “I bought one for myself because my husband’s looked cooler, and I thought there would be no distinction if I bought the same one, but the ladies’ was center-press.”
  • I said, “What’s a center press?”
  • Wife: “It’s designed with the folds in front of the legs.”
  • I said, “Oh, that.”

A few days after this exchange, as I picked up the dry laundry, I thought, “Oh, this isn’t mine because it’s center pressed.”

  • Then I wondered, “If I hadn’t learned the term “center press,” would I have made the distinction?” I thought.

I noticed the difference in shades after I took the pictures and laid them out.

  • This is not an intentional difference, but one that has faded due to UV rays or something else with use.
  • So if you use this as a point of distinction, eventually you won’t be able to tell the difference.
