Seat pitch is the distance from the back of one seat to the back of the next seat. It is not the same as legroom.

Airlines with the same seat pitch but thinner seats will have more legroom. Seat thickness has been decreasing, so while the pitch may have been 34" the leg room may be the same as a 31" pitch now because the seat width has decreased by 3".
