8 Mind-Blowing Facts About Leggings

From Kendall Jenner to Glamour’s own staffers, it’s official—we’re living in a leggings-obsessed world. But a new survey, conducted by retail surveyor Indix, revealed some surprising news about our favorite lounge/workout pants. Here’s what we learned:

The average price of a pair of yoga leggings has actually dropped over the last several years. In 2014, the average pair retailed for $50.10, and in 2016, the average price was $25.40. Now, the average price has dropped to $20.70. When was the last time something you loved actually became less expensive!?
Almost all—99 percent!— of yoga pants on the market are made for women (up from 94 percent last year). And men pay an average of $6 more per pair than ladies do. One of the few areas where we pay less than men!

And the least expensive? 2LUV—$13.40 a pair!
Americans spent $16 billion on yoga clothing, classes, equipment and accessories in 2016.
If you’re in the market for some new leggings, you’ll have a lot to choose from: Indix reports that in 2017, 84 different brands make leggings, producing a total of 15,565 styles—nearly double the amount from last year.

This 'Game of Thrones' Death Pattern Discovered by Reddit Is Completely Mind-Blowing

Game of Thrones is perhaps most well known for being unafraid to kill off series stalwarts—and, of course, for having extremely detail-oriented fans. So it was only a matter of time before those fans would sift through all of the many deaths we’ve seen on the show and devise a theory that makes them all interrelated.

According to Redditor razobak09, as spotted by HelloGiggles, the pattern goes like this: Characters on GoT die in ways that mirror their most important moments on the series. For instance (and, obviously, spoilers), Ned Stark used his sword, Ice, to behead the Night’s Watchman deserter before being beheaded by Ice himself; Tywin Lannister ordered the Red Wedding, where numerous Stark men were killed by crossbow-wielding musicians before his own death by crossbow at the hands of his son, Tyrion; and Roose Bolton killed Robb Stark with a knife to the heart before then being stabbed in the heart by his son, Ramsay.

But wait, there’s more: Jon Snow stabs his Night’s Watch brother, Qhorin Halfhand, and later, he’s fatally stabbed by Night’s Watch brothers (and brought back to life, but still). And Stannis Baratheon killed his brother, Renly Baratheon, with the help his female assistant so-to-speak, Melisandre; then, Stannis was later killed by his Renly’s female assistant/devotee, Brienne of Tarth. And so on.

It all makes sense when you think about it, especially since Game of Thrones makes a point to focus on revenge, complicated sub-plots, and dramatic death scenes. Now that season seven has ended and we’re starved for any details we can possibly pick up about the future, all we have to do is figure out what every remaining character has done to others—and then maybe, we’ll be able to figure out how they die. (Perhaps we could start with Arya’s kill list?)

Should be easy enough with all of this time we have to kill (pun intended) before the next and last season, right?
