Leggings for Guys - Finally Trending?

Anonymous
If you look on most online stores such as Under Armor you will find that leggings are starting to trend in the men’s fitness department. If you look even closer, most major retailers have men’s leggings too. They have been called compressions in many cases because the average guy is scared of sharing a trend with women. The male ego is large.

What you just read is my observation. I live on the Bible belt and it's in the early stages of becoming a trend here so I am sure it's happening everywhere else in the US. To clarify, I am an 18 year old straight male and I am in a great relationship with an amazing girl. Just an avg guy with a foward thinking mind.

I have been wearing the leggings (Obviously between occasional washes) over Christmas break just lounging around. I have fallen in love with the comfort of these leggings, they are beyond comfortable. I am not one to talk about my size because you will never see me and I couldd care less, but I am average/above average in tha area. The reason I mention that is to point out that barley anything shows. I was expecting the opposite. This particular designer really put a lot of though into this pair. Off topic.

I wear my leggings out in public whenever I go out to eat and stuff like that. I get an occasional look of, "Wft?" and sometimes I get the, "Nice legs" compliment. It varies from person to person. I have learn that this takes confidence to pull off a style that is not yet common, otherwise you look awkward. People are still not used to men in leggings where I live so it makes life interesting. I can definitely see how these can become a trend. I always wear something sporty or something nice with the leggings, the trashy look does not cut it.

My point is.
Leggings are amazing, they enhance the looks of my masculinelegs, they do not show as much as you would expect, and the comfort level is beyond what I anticipated; I am very impressed.

Only mature answers welcome. Why will this or why will this not trend?
