Is clothes shopping IRL better than shopping online? (lemmy.ml)

Am I the only one who struggles with online shopping? Like with measurements for example, I don't know what there talking about or if the clothes will be the right size. How does everyone else get around this?

Not just do you get a better sense of the measurements but also the feel of the fabric. If I'm gonna buy something to wear, I really wanna be sure it's nice against my skin before I buy.

Sadly, I live in the arse end of nowhere though, and there's a lot of stuff I can't find without looking online.
