a question for the men

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

Meggings no -lycra and running tights hell yes

Budgie smugglers in the pool too

 

[numbnuts]

I'm wearing some now I don't see the problem they are no different than running/cycling tights and if I go shopping by bike I'll be wearing them and to hell what other people think.

[QUOTE 2199904, member: 259"]In fact if the truth be told, I already have some, but they're strictly for 'running' and they're a tasteful grey with reflective bits.[/quote]
Yeah but now if we go anywhere in our running trousers after a run, people are going to think we are wearing meggins and are full on the trend.

Mind you, I gave up caring whether I looked like a tosser, years ago.

Not unless I join a Iron Maiden, which is unlikely for very many reasons.

It would be worse if you joined an AC/DC tribute band and had to wear primary school uniform into your 60's

There isn't a lot of difference between them and a tight pair of Ron Hill Tracksters so they'd suffer from the same 'codpiece' problem, otherwise - yes, I'd wear a pair once my legs were back to being big and strong again rather than semi-atrophied as they are now!

 

[Davywalnuts]

Do they do them in a size to fit my thighs and calfs?

I tried to put skinny jeans on once, couldn't get them past my ankles..

I think fashion like this is for the floppy-haired-boy-band generation with no leg muscles and only work on their show muscles at the gym, ie, chest and bi's.

Real men with real legs wear jeans, shorts or lycra. Simples.

Babby corduroys for me, shorts plus 2 or full length. I get my thighs groped quite enough as it is.

If I got holes in my proper trousers mum would send me to school in shorts; I can only assume Angus Young must have got HUGE holes in his trousers.

Do you guys mind if I comment? No. Good.

I think leggings (for women) are designed to look good on women who are slim and well muscled, because they fit the legs closely, but just smooth out the bumps and dips that muscles create, giving a softer, more feminine look. (That's why they look good on me, obviously )

On men, this doesn't work, because muscle definition looks good on you. You're not aiming for a soft, feminine look. At least, I don't think most of you are.

So, my opinion?

They look ridiculous.

 

[clarion]

Ah well, I look ridiculous whatever I do. But I spend a lot of time wearing cycling longs, and shorts in summer.

I do have good legs, though.

 

[Marshmallow_Fluff]

oh, I will have to disagree with the dear @lulubel

I think slender and well defined male legs look great with leggings. I find men in tights seriously hot!!

 

[Archie_tect]

.... men in tights
Mel Brookes should stand trial for crimes against comedy.

Probably just as well C....
