My comment certainly sounds very cranky, but it has nothing to do with these two companies! I have to add – my griping was not directed specifically at Oiselle or Quaker.

Frequently running buddies and I have this conversation about the perfect appearel. I think that I would love some running shorts that didn't ride up, but didn't look like BOY shorts! I would also like some tops that actually hold my boobs in, that are not just made for size A (I am not saying there's anythin wrong with being a size A I am just not that fortunate. I just want to be comfortable, and cute. Well I love this post by the way. Frequently running buddies and I have this conversation about the perfect appearel.

I can see why there are so many comments. For myself, I'd like bottoms that do not drop down too low. I don't care whether this particular fashion is in season or not. Oops...my secret is out....I'm still working on it! What a fun post! I can see why there are so many comments.

I wrote to Champion recently to complain about their change from fitness models to fashion models. They used to show strong, fit women in action poses - now they have flabby-thin models in slumped passive positions. I'm completely supportive of using more "real" looking models that I can identify with, but this is going in the wrong direction. For me personally, I definitely want to see larger sizes, especially in the bras. And is it really so prohibitively expensive or impossible to offer them in a color besides black or white? If you're manufacturing 18 different sizes in 12 different colors, you really can't tack on one more option? That's going to kill your profit margin? And DON'T tell me you need to charge $5 more for the extra fabric - if you're going to follow that reasoning, then why isn't the XS size $5 cheaper than the regular? And the person who complained about Target putting plus sizes with the maternity? AMEN. I don't shop at Target anymore specifically for that reason - or Champion either.

Tiny cap sleeves just ain't cuttin' it. I echo the request of pants with varying inseam sizes. If they're too long they most likely won't fit properly any where else. Shorten our long sleeve tops. I'm not sure why some manufacturers think that a person larger than a size XL is a neanderthal with knuckles grazing the cement. I also agree with another comment about making plus sized shirts larger in the hip area and not just longer. We don't want the option to wear it as a shirt AND a dress, thank-you-very-much. Give us more selections in WIDE shoes. Currently I have fat feet and want something other than an senior citizen orthotic shoe to wear. Thanks for asking! Love the post - too funny!
