There was that footballer in the 70s too - Keith Weller.

Re: Leggings for men
I could see 'em being useful to brickies working on a building site, worn under their jeans to keep their legs warm. But worn on their own Rudolf Nureyev stylee.

Re: Leggings for men
I typically had thermals for outside when I worked, I'm really not sure what all this is about.

Re: Leggings for men
I had rather thought that "leggings" were something on the order of the strips of cloth World War I soldiers wrapped around their lower legs. I'd call the garment in the photo a "leotard" or maybe just "stretch pants."

Re: Leggings for men
Bikers often wear ladies tights for warmth under their jeans... As have some of the boys with their rhubarb coloured corduroy breeches and knee socks in the winter at Hill House School, just by Cadogan Square.

/\ Interestingly they call the breeches 'Rust', which I'm sure they are when new... But only a parvenu would wear new breeches...
