Men in Tights

It’s sweeping the UK..but will you be buying mantyhose for your man?

So far the trend’s staying across the pond, but how long will it be before our husbands follow the lead of their Brit counterparts and start buying record number of sheer, patterned and support tights for men? Word is that they’re being sold not as fetish garments, but as practical, comfortable and stylish everyday wear.

Tights aimed at men are designed slightly differently from those worn by women – and not just because they come in sizes large enough to accommodate beefy hockey players. They usually feature support panels, sometimes include front openings that resemble flies on jeans, and may have reinforced feet.

So, weigh in with a comment (don’t be shy!!!). Will you support your husband’s bid to be a tights-wearing superhero?
