Even non skinny jeans got tight. I have really old Dickies pants and newer ones the same size. The legs are thinner and less comfortable, I buy 2-4 sizes up so my legs can move about at work.
It sort of felt like capitalism was embracing the skinny leg trend and that's how it became so ubiquitous even outside of fashion. Same price, less fabric.
