I noticed that Athleta recently started making "skinny jean" style cords with athletic fit thighs. I laughed because I bought a pair of "modern fit" cords at the Loft in my regular size. I didn't realize they were the same cut as the "skinny jeans" I had bought there, but in one size up. I can barely pull the cords over my thighs.
I might have to check out the Athleta pants, because I feel like I am being strangled.
