F1 cord/spandex hybrid

first came jeggings. . . now ceggings? i have to admit, i want a pair, even if they are glorified cord sweatpants. the questions is, which one, madewell or anthropologie? luckily my sister is asking the same question and has already tried on both of these beauties—she dose not live in a shop-challenged city like me. her verdict, the madewell pair seem too thin, but the anthropologie pair, although thicker, have a faux zip fly. this doesn’t make the decision any easier.
