Never knew so many guys wear leggings proudly.Ive been wearing them for years there sssooo comfortable.There great for cycling when it’s a bit cold out being that I live in the Midwest there quite handy and I could so care less what anyone thinks if u don’t like it don’t look and if u have it and want to flaunt it do it.
i would like to know if u will ever bring back the neon soft leggings which r great for running and working out in the out doors, i luv shopping at BA and will continue to do so. p.s. i luv all of your thong panties.
I live in leggings when it cooler, crawl out of bed pull on a set of leggings and an oversized shirt and I’m ready for the day.
I myself always wear leggings with thongs I hate panty lines when working out,or running even to run errands I workout hard watch what I eat I’ve work hard to be muscular and a six pack abs to show and as an older man I get wear what I want wherever I want i look good wearing leggings at times get compliments from both male,females those who judge what someone is wearing most times wish they could wear what someone maybe wearing this the USA where you are free to live wear as you choose BA we need more colors styles of leggings dri- fit leggings and thongs would be great I love shopping BA
Thank you everyone for taking the time to comment. Leggings are not just for women anymore!
And Rob, I love wearing leggings but don’t have any pictures of myself in them as I don’t usually take selfies while out and about.
I’m working on a future blog and you just may get a glimpse of what I look like if you really want to see!
Thanks again

Men and leggings? Hell yeah! I alwsys wear athletic leggings to the gym and whenever I’m out running errands. They feel great and I happen to think I look pretty good in them. I stopped worrying about what people think many years ago. I’m not breaking any laws and I wouldn’t cause the most prudish person to blush. I just look like any normal guy who happens to be wearing leggings. I love them and that’s all that matters. Nobody has ever said anything and I doubt they ever will. I look forward to seeing more styles and fabrics in the future.
I have been wearing thigh high stockings for many years. They are very supportive and stylish. A suggestion, to enhance the whole experience of wearing leggings or stockings you should seriously consider shaving your your legs. It adds a wonderful sensation.
Jeff, That is great that you are able to wear leggings in class, you are totally correct that we should not be limited in what we can wear just because perhaps women got to them first! Coincidentally we at Body Aware are making a male dance belt using a double layer of super soft and stretchy fabric. Hoping it will be out in a couple of weeks.
I’m responding to Dan or anyone else who cares to read!
Dan,
Let me first start by saying go for it! I love what you wrote and WE need to get over the thought that leggings are for woman only. They are incredibly comfortable. I’ve been taking barre classes which also is predominantly women for years now. I buy the same leggings they wear in class and I fit right in. I wear them to and from without issue. But I do add one undergarment that I think is a must. I purchased a men’s dancers brief from a local ballet shop. I won’t post the manufacturer info unless I’m told it’s ok on here. The mens dancers brief has several layers of fabric in the front to smooth that area out. And it works and works well. If we were in the right club setting I might want to “print” through. But not for everyday wear or to fitness classes. Just my thoughts. But guys, keep killing it! You all look hot and I know you feel ridiculously comfortable.
Take care,
Jeff
Hey guys, I just got wind of this blog posting from my regular Body Aware email and saw the “Men + Leggings, Whoa or No?” topic and HAD to stop by and write. Let me just say this, I have many, many pairs of leggings that I wear around the house including one pair of shiny pleather leggings with zip pouch that I wore once outdoors when I was feeling particularly adventurous. I had a couple of looks, and one gent said good morning to me. Heck, I paid a lot of money for what I have and I have to get over this mentality about what others will think if they see me wearing them and start wearing them whenever and wherever I want. It’s just so hard to do, because I’m not used to people judging me to my face (I don’t care what they say when I’m not there). But what should I be worried about? I know the answer is NOTHING but the threat of embarrassment or disappointment still lingers. I need a boost of confidence. I’ve lost 30 pounds in the last 5 months and look pretty good in my leggings, but am still a bit afraid of showing off. It’s a comfort thing, you know? :)
I love wearing leggings at the gym. I have one pair of bodyaware leggings, but want to try some more. I teach group fitness classes and prefer to wear thongs under my leggings so they don’t slide down and not show lines. I really don’t like it when guys wear them and then wear knee length baggy shorts over them. I tried this look at first and it just made it hot and non functional.
I love leggings, glad you have added them to your line. Up until now I have worn girls leggings but am looking forward to trying yours.
Hey Ron – great points here. What I’d like to know is, when are we going to see you wearing leggings when you’re out running errands? ;)

It’s time that men be men. Now, you have to think this saying over really hard. “Men be Men. “If another man is worried about what another man is wearing, then think about it, who’s really acting feminine? And let’s say another woman is worried about a man wearing leggings, skinny jeans, etc…. why is she so worried, if in fact she’s not your mother, sister, wife, or girlfriend.
I wear my skinny jeans, or track leggings whenever I want, and any man who has something to say about how I dress, is rather suspicious, and if the girl who is complaining, is not cooking my dinner, raising my kids, or even in my corner, she too can take her comments, and choke on them.
i’m going to get the modern leggings finally next week… they look awesome and sexy as hell…. love the look and feel of shiny faux leather….have lots of other hot gear myself for doing whatever….but i beg to differ about the look of leggings in the 80’s…..it did look hot on SOME people, not all but some if they can get away with it…heh. :) styles come and go all the time so the thing is to be different and be your own person and not care about what other think these days anymore, i don’t….if you have the body to wear hot, sexy tight clothing than show it off!!!!!!
