I don't get them. Are they pants? Are they a skirt? A bizarre combo of the two?

I can certainly see why their on sale, & yet my Nike contour capris are nowhere to be found.

They are odd, aren't they? I think they are meant to be a little kinder to those of us with less than perfect figures, especially in the hip area.

These pants were designed by a distance runner, who, er, had a little accident on the way, hence the uh, mud flap. Hey, it happens.

This reminds me of the sort of things I see dancers wear, shorts with capri's, skirts with capris.

My DD would love these! Her and her friends love wearing leggings under everything! She wears them under skirts, shorts, dresses... Of course, she is 11!

Huh... reminds me of my skating days when we would get cold as crap and put on a pair of pants under our skating skirt. Looked just like that. Not a look I would sport anywhere else...

Yeah! I remember! Well only because a lot of the punk bands around today still do it, and a lot of my friends haha.
