Urban Outfitters Skinny Denim 360°
Eureka! Whatever bright mind at Urban Outfitters that came up with the idea of featuring a three hundred and sixty degree view of their collection of skinny jeans is a bonafide genius. Online shopping is hard enough and now it's made a little bit easier with this feature for men and women. If only the rest of the online shopping community could catch up with such awesome technology.

P.S. Snaps to the other person who stole the Woody Allen font and has been using it all over the Urban website. Much appreciated.

Stretch Onewash, Cheap Monday $65
This gives skinny jeans a bad name. There is nothing wrong with a razor-sharp, long, and lean silhouette on the bottom but this model looks woefully uncomfortable. I fear for his genitals and whomever has to help him out of these jeans. This also let's us know the assumption all denim is created equally for men is an egregious misnomer because my lower half is similar to that model (muscular quads, a slightly noticeable bottom, skinny to average calves) and there wouldn't be a fitting chance in hell that I could fit in those jeans or be remotely comfortable. And why should I be? Isn't the point of clothing to compliment our shape and allow us to freely move in the world around us? Cheap Monday, you may lure your narrow-hipped customers in with your inexpensive prices and Swedish cache, but what kind of sadomasochist needs these jeans?
