This trade pattern is likely a result of economies of scale and product differentiation. The clothing exported by each region may have different characteristics or designs which appeal to consumers in the importing region. Additionally, by exporting to each other, both regions can achieve larger economies of scale in production and reduce costs. This is not a violation of the law of comparative advantage, as both regions are still specializing in producing what they are relatively good at, but are also taking advantage of trade opportunities to expand their markets and lower costs. It is also not a failure to take advantage of specialization, as specialization still exists within each region's production processes.
