I didn't move fast enough and they sold out pretty quickly in my size, but keep looking. They are out there! </p> <p>Here is a link to another pair RL has now <a href="http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=18273756&#038;utm_medium=14862513&#038;utm_source=Google_PLA&#038;utm_campaign=CSE" rel="nofollow">http://www.ralphlauren.com/pro.....mpaign=CSE</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926501 Tue, 07 May 2013 00:07:12 +0000 kkards 926501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used to really feel the same way. I really love navy, and for the last few years, it's been easy to find, so I have been hoarding. But I must admit, that with the Internet it's become really much easier to find almost anything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926303 Mon, 06 May 2013 20:02:40 +0000 Inge 926303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The Express Editors are also slightly wider than a bootcut, I would say they are more a wide-legged style than a bootcut, but not a true flare.<br /><br />Paige has a few flared jeans on their website:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.paigeusa.com/women-flare/l/230">http://www.paigeusa.com/women-flare/l/230</a><br /><br />I was also going to suggest trying eBay (the "Hudson" by Citizens of Humanity is also a wide-legged jean for example). https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926296 Mon, 06 May 2013 19:56:29 +0000 rachylou 926296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes! I want a pair of flared pants and there are none to be had!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926249 Mon, 06 May 2013 19:22:35 +0000 unfrumped 926249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I hear you on trying to stick with something that works.<br /><br />Ann Taylor's typical suiting trousers heretofore have actually been sort of wide leg (not boot cut). As in, 20" wide at the ankle, and one pair is even a bit wider.&nbsp;These are from 2012 and 2011, though.<br /><br />I'm currently trying to go a bit narrower and am seeing if their newer version called "straight leg" might be just right, but I agree with you, "straight" is often very fitted through the thigh and knee and I still want that sort of trouser effect where it falls straight from the lower hip.<br /><br />I have some side-zip wider leg pants that I am hoarding, though. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926237 Mon, 06 May 2013 19:09:10 +0000 Peri 926237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I feel your pain! Wide legs may not look the best on me but I crave them because they cover my shoes better...then I don't feel as bad about wearing my mandatory gym shoes. All skinnies, ankles and crops are out for me and they are everywhere.</p> <p>I second the banana republic...looking at several new pairs of wide legs. White House has some very cute trouser jeans, but they are fitted until the knee, not really wide leg. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926230 Mon, 06 May 2013 18:57:14 +0000 bj1111 926230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ hoard if you can afford it. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926225 Mon, 06 May 2013 18:41:52 +0000 ironkurtin 926225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rae is right, many so-called "trouser" cuts are actually wide legs.&nbsp; I often have to have mine taken in, because I love everything until the knee.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926031 Mon, 06 May 2013 15:17:33 +0000 modgrl 926031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am short so I have to buy jacket styles that are "cropped" to fit me at the right length. I stocked up over the last few years. I'm glad I did because these styles are not in stores now. <br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926027 Mon, 06 May 2013 15:15:02 +0000 rae 926027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree with IK about Ebay and Yoox. NYDJ also makes a wide leg that they call "trouser" cut, so you can look for that style too when searching the net. Getwear.com's trouser style also looks like a wide leg to me, and they would work with you to get your desired look. Good hunting! I have a pair of wide leg Miss Sixty jeans in the closet I'm hanging onto for dear life. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-your-styles-are-not-in-the-stores#post-926007 Mon, 06 May 2013 14:28:12 +0000 Sarah A 926007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thrift stores? <br /><br />Those made to order/copycat a pair of pants websites.

I have known this for decades no matter what size I am... The problem is everything&nbsp;in store&nbsp;is skinny or a slim straight leg, or even boyfriend s that&nbsp;taper and shortes; bootlegs have a grab at the less than shapely knee. I have some wide legs in my wardrobe but a few things need replacing and the stores/online are devoid of this style. OK maybe I could resort to having some tailored trousers made, but what about jeans? and casual pants? Does anyone else face this problem (and possibly have&nbsp;solutions)&nbsp;with trousers or anything else?&nbsp;
