Why have Leggings become so popular?

Leggings have such a mixed history, trending from the disco leggings in the 80s being reinvented in the early 2000s and even in 2022 we find a whole range of leggings on the market for all purposes.

Historically leggings made from wool leggings which are a traditional garment for both men and women in many colder parts of the world. Whereas leather leggings were popular in Native America for thousands of years. Another staple usage of leggings were in the Renaissance period from the 13th to 16th century, you wouldn’t be seen outside without a fine pair of leggings.

It has since been reinvented and it’s no surprise that people have begun to shop for leggings and other form-fitting pieces frequently again.
