They are perfect for sports, such as cyclists. The clothes are thin and prevent overheating, and their density compresses the legs with the necessary force to prevent muscle spasms, this significantly increases the athlete’s endurance.

Men also wear them for warmth in frosty weather. Insulated options are ideal for police officers, fishermen, hunters, builders and other professionals who have to stay in the cold for a long time.

  • athletic and stretchy - they are mainly made of spandex, they absorb all moisture and have antibacterial properties, so the body does not sweat in them, and there is no unpleasant odor. Such models are expensive, however, they are worth the high price. Ideal for sports, they compress muscles and help circulate blood during exercise. Muscles get tired less.
  • insulated version - this item of clothing is necessary for men who spend a lot of time in the cold. There is also a model with waterproof shins and reflective elements. They absorb moisture and have a special laminated surface that does not allow air to pass through at all.This allows you to wear them even in the most severe frost with wind.
  • Adidas sports brands - available in black and white. The upper half has reflective stripes, an excellent ventilation system.
  • with knee socks – they have an insert “under the sock” at the bottom. When wearing such models, you don’t have to worry that someone will think about tights, as they create the complete impression of socks on your feet in different colors and prints.

Reviews and comments

About women’s it’s not true they fit fine, they’re not narrow

WITH Sergey:

tights are a comfortable thing

WITH Sergey:

That's for sure

A Alexander:

I’ve been wearing women’s tights for a long time and they don’t squeeze anywhere, you just need to take the right size

M Marina:

Hello! I didn’t understand why there was such a big difference between tights for women and men. My husband wears his wife’s usual tights, they are cheaper and there is not much difference in appearance. Thanks for the answer.

A Alexander:

And the only difference is the price

E Eugene:

Somehow it happened in the fall that all the tights that I wear under my trousers ended up in the wash. I looked through all the things in the closet. I turned to my wife and found nothing either. And it was the end of October and wearing only trousers it would have been uncomfortably cold outside. We were planning to go to the dacha and prepare it for winter. The wife once again rummaged through her things and walked around the apartment anxiously. Then she called into the bedroom, and she herself had a mysterious smile on her face). She took out a cellophane envelope from her department. He says, just don’t swear right away! Try it on. I bought tights, but I took the wrong size; they had been lying around for a long time. They are certainly not warm, but they are just right for autumn. It was Mi Ni Mi 70 den. On the cover there was a girl in a blue office suit with impeccable legs. Seeing all this, I was shocked, to say nothing). But for some reason I didn’t want to refuse at all. And I was curious how it looked in tights).The tights turned out to be the most common beige nylon tights, but dense and elastic. My wife undertook to help me get dressed, and it turned out to be quite difficult. I had to roll up each stocking with an accordion, and tuck in my feet one by one from the tips of my toes. Then slowly straighten, alternately stretching each stocking up to the waist. And now I’m standing, wearing tights. I feel like I've never experienced anything like it. Already in the process of dressing, I felt an exciting sensation, like the tight-fitting fabric tightened my legs. The skin became smooth and even the ridges remained below and did not stick out. I ran my palm over it, rustling and absolutely smooth. My wife asked, how are you? I was shocked by my experiences and my throat was dry. Therefore, he mumbled something incomprehensible). The day went with a bang, but the whole time I was distracted by the thought that I kept feeling how the tights were stickily tightening my legs. This is pleasant at the same time, but also very distracting.

D Zen Cosmonauts:

For a man, tights are the most comfortable and necessary thing in the wardrobe. Under brookies, jeans. I wear tights at home, sometimes outside under shorts, for an evening walk. The difference between men's and women's tights: only in the price! I only buy women's! They always fit perfectly!!!

A Anton:

Tights for men, including classic women's models, as they are called, are a very comfortable and practical thing. The main thing is to choose the right size. Tights have no gender characteristics, they are just clothing for the legs.Now on the packaging of tights of many leading brands from the masmarket (Omsa, Innomore, Goloden Lady, Glamor, etc.), especially for the Maxi size grid, for 8 -70 den there is practically no definition of products as “women’s tights”, it is simply indicated - elastic tights. Therefore, the manufacturers themselves position these products as unisex. Therefore, both women and men can wear any tights in which they feel comfortable and comfortable. The only thing is that men can only wear tights under trousers/jeans, since for them tights are an element of underwear.

M Maksim:

In the cold season, I often wear tights under my trousers. Very comfortably. I wear men's thongs under my tights.

A Agrat:

I'm a girl, I don't wear tights: it's uncomfortable! Well, maybe once every 100 years, under a dress. I also wear men's socks. And I like to sit with my legs apart. In short, some guy. ?

I I:

I only wear thin 8-15 denier nude nylon tights with shorts just above mid-thigh with shoes. They are almost invisible. Naturally, the legs should be without hair; there can only be light, imperceptible stubble less than 1 mm. I wear these tights not for comfort or warmth, but solely for beauty. People pay attention to them (the legs), they look, and I like it.

A Alex:

I wear tights and stockings for insulation, comfort, aesthetics and as a fetish.
I don’t wear men’s thermal underwear: it doesn’t fit my legs enough, it’s uncomfortable under jeans/trousers. Sometimes too warming.
I wear tights and especially stockings. For insulation underneath, opaque microfiber 50-100 denier or brushed, depending on the temperature.Thick stockings are very comfortable when it’s not frosty, the silicone elastic doesn’t roll down and stays on perfectly all day, you stop noticing their presence on your leg. I buy mostly from Calcedonia, good quality. Different colors - black, brown, blue, i.e. day after day, how different socks are visible between sneakers/boots and jeans. It’s a big plus when you wear stockings under jeans with a coat - it’s 0-14 degrees warmer outside, and it’s not hot in the room/transport and you don’t want to take it off, and the central part with panties doesn’t overheat, as if you wear tights or thermal leggings. And it’s more comfortable to wear a single piece of clothing, rather than separate socks and underpants.
I also wear thin transparent tights/stockings at 10-20 degrees.
The most comfortable type of tights are the seamless ones with a belt with a silicone elastic band; they fit at the waist like a glove, fit comfortably around everything anatomically, and do not press. But stockings are still more comfortable.
I wear both “regular” and thin nylon socks (knee socks). Black nylon looks beautiful with black jeans and sneakers/boots. In the heat of 28+, if for work you need to wear jeans/pants and not shorts, I prefer thin nylon on my legs, no matter what they say about breathable cotton, but when during the day your feet have already sweated and cotton socks are wet, wear them It’s unpleasant and rubs the leg, but in nylon there are no such problems, and you literally don’t feel them when wearing them.
I saw several beautiful men's looks with shorts and transparent/thick tights, it looks elegant and aesthetically pleasing. I think it will suit me too, given my slender and straight legs, but I haven’t tried it yet. Although I don’t hide wearing nylon instead of cotton socks and, on the contrary, I like it to be noticeable. It is beautiful. Thanks to my wife for supporting me in what I like. And shopping together is fun!

AND Ivan:

In winter I wear tights all the time.I prefer men's knitted tights with a codpiece. I buy from online stores. It is a rarity. Very comfortably. I don’t recognize any underpants or leggings.

AND Ivan:

I wore tights as a child in kindergarten, but one day my girlfriend on February 23rd, instead of the standard gifts - socks, etc. She gave me a package of men's tights, nylon ones at that, and I didn't even know that such existed, and even for men.

Out of curiosity, I took these tights out of the package and noticed that they were almost transparent, but had an interesting cut, like men's panties: there was a denser insert in the front of the tights. I understand that these tights do not imply the presence of additional underwear, since that is what they are.

As a result, at the urgent request of my beloved, I had to try on this miracle. Having taken off everything unnecessary, I pulled them on, and, feeling some shame, appeared before my beloved in these tights. I couldn’t answer her question about convenience right away, because I didn’t immediately understand it myself. Walking around the house in these tights for half a day, I felt a pleasant sensation from the comfort of these tights, despite the fact that I had to pull them up periodically, but, as far as I understood, they were not for warmth at all, but rather for intimate games.

After which I told about my impressions, told her that they were slipping and the seams in the front were a little in the way. The next day, having accepted my comments, she suggested trying on seamless tights, but this time, judging by the packaging, they were women’s and were made of thicker 50-denier microfiber. And then I myself wanted to quickly pull them on myself, which I actually did. As it turns out, these tights are just the thing! The absence of seams gives unusual comfort and a perfect fit.In general, walking in these tights, I got a lot of pleasant sensations. I won’t lie, I felt a slight excitement from the comfort of these tights, and from that moment on I only wear these tights, instead of panties and socks. And my girlfriend likes it when I wear pantyhose at home.
