Sometimes you get what you pay for. The store is never really full, so that helps. I walked in and mentioned what I was looking for. The sales lady got on the ladder and pulled down a pair of jeans on that massive wall. Then she found them in an alternate color. She quickly explained how they should fit. Apparently jeans with stretch that our trousers should fit as tightly as you can possible handle them. Like if you can barely button them, you're good because they'll stretch.

The jeans she suggested fit perfectly. I bought them and was out of the store within 10 minutes. And though I hate paying True Religion prices, I have not regretted the purchase.
