Hello!
I need to display sizes & colors for a apparel item like a pair of pants.
Originally I had the sizes in a list, but I can't pass any sizes/variable
to the e-commerce store without JavaScript when using a list. So I'm
trying to use form tags.
The catch is that I need to be able to style the sizes options to make
them look the way I want. I also need to do this for the different colors
the shirt comes in. An example of what I'm trying to accomplish can be
viewed here.

What's the proper accessible way to make the sizes and colors so they can
be visual styled correctly and accessible?
Thanks for any advice in advance.
Cheers,
Brady

Use a <select> for the colour and sizes, and using unobtrusive JS you
can style it as you want.
This could get you started in the right direction:
