I don't know when the catalog update occurred, but nowadays it's become increasingly hard to find relevant items on the model and clothing pages of ROBLOX.

When I'd go to the catalog, I used to be able to look up "brown trench coat" and it would return brown jackets of all varieties--- but now, searching that (or anything else) will bring back military uniforms, dresses, and other completely unrelated items.

Even just searching "brown coat" will only yield two items that are actually brown, and the rest won't have anything to do with the search.

I realize this might be to entice you to buy other things besides what you actually want, but it's made finding good items on ROBLOX near impossible, let alone find models in the catalog that you actually need/want to use based on your search and spend hours just picking out a single retexture you want to use. It's maddening.

It's still a part of ROBLOX's end. They were the ones who even made the search algorithm search item descriptions.
