Hello people

Just wondered what your view was on men wearing tights in the gym?

No shorts over them... *kitten* on show is what i mean.

i have started to wear them in the gym, they feel great and most people come up to me and say i look great in them :)

    Men wear tights in competitive cycling, swimming, and running. As long as you can back it up with real performance, nobody's gonna care. If you dress up like a serious athlete but run out of breath after 10 minutes at the treadmill, then people might give you funny looks.

    I'm not sure I've seen men in tights ( except at the ballet or the actual movie called "men in tights")

    Please provide a photo so I too can pass judgement.

    and personally I really don't care. If it feels good, do it. And as long as your comfortable with people maybe looking at you, go for it!

    My guy wears them to run and bike. He says they are comfortable and I definitely don't mind the view. His legs are freaking amazing. Plus, um... other stuff looks great too. :love:

    Well i don't know how that looks haha, i usually wear a a garment that just overlaps the front,bt anyways i am comfortable with people lookinghell they look when i wear joggers so its normal for me.

    My view is guys with six pack abs wear tight tops... so as i have seriously shredded legs i should wear tights to show them off too :P

    I don't use a gym so I guess I won't seeing any men in tights....and if they look as ridiculous as men in skinny jeans I am glad.

    That's my motto.

    If it's comfortable, you go for it. If people are in the gym judging you, they're not concentrating on what they are supposed to be doing.

    As you can see, class, positive affirmation does wonders for the ego.

    I would imagine tights would be very uncomfortable for our packages.

    Geesh.... this takes me back. When I was in the first grade, we went to the ballet on a school field trip. We were sitting two rows back from the stage.... the fella dancing on stage was wearing what appeared to be spray paint for pants... I don't remember much about the act because all I could see was his junk bouncing to and fro in those pale gray, second skin type tights. I may be scarred for life.....

    I wear shorts over the top most times, but feeling so comfortable without. My friends and people told me that the look really suits me.

    well, take a picture of yourself in the tights, then wait a week. Go back and look at the pic. If you feel like you like the look then go for it.
