Do any other members ever have trouble gauging a piece of clothing's exact color in the store? I don't know if it's the lighting they use but on a handful of occasions I have bought an item only to wear it out and discover that the color is too bright in natural light. This weekend I was at a freestanding Jos. A. Banks contemplating a couple purchases and actually asked the salesman if I could take a step outside while wearing the suit I was trying on. He said that it was against store policy and I didn't argue with him although I did try to explain my situation. He told me that they don't use any special lighting and that whatever I buy should look the same in natural light. I wasn't angry but I did leave without purchasing anything and decided later that I am going to be more careful from now on about taking off the tags before wearing the items outside first so they can still be returned.
