  1. Hey Scott,

    I'm sorry that this is only tangentially related to running but I have to ask. At the Half Moon Bay Marathon awards ceremony, my husband Adam Pomeroy noticed that your jeans actually fit. I want to get him some jeans for Christmas that actually fit his skinny runner build! It's practically impossible! Any chance you'd tell me what brand of jeans you wear? Hope that's not too personal of a question.

    Thanks,
    Amy Pomeroy

  2. Amy - that's a first for me! I've found that Rock and Republic, Joe's Jeans, and AG (all available at Nordstrom) all have jeans that fit my skinny butt pretty well. Christi recommends asking a sales person at Nordstrom too, for they typically know exactly which ones to pull out. Hope that helps!

  4. Ha! Do you know how relevant that question is?!? It's crazy hard to find long leg/no butt jeans. "Big and Tall" stores just roll their eyes. Thanks for the tip, Scott!
    So next question, my 2 yo is built JUST like me. Anyone know where to get skinny jeans for a little girl? Everything is built like a box nowadays.
