In Colombia, you'll find stores like this everywhere, because the word "gorda/o" or "gordita/o" is as much a term of endearment as a physical descriptor ("fatty", but waaaay more loving).

You'll still get high end brand names with a limited range, but general stores frequently boast a range of model sizes, too.

It was *such* a culture shock when I first arrived, to realize that naming someone by a feature could simply be descriptive. We weaponize *so much* with our words in the West.
