    Mantyhose! Will it catch on?

    Saw this today:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/8272962.stm

    Just wondering if it will stick around and become mainstream

    Retaining the shorts? Or just the mantyhose on it's own?

    If it was without the shorts I assume there'd be some kind of Linford Christie effect!!!

    Well, you never know, if swimmers can have shark-skin go-faster suits then why not runners? However, in this case I was alluding to the possibility of a visible lunch-box rather than any performance enhancement.

    Ohhhhhhh yesssssss!!

    Seriously, I did see a few guys in UGGs about this time last year. Wonder if they'll be more this year when the weather gets cold. Surely the sort of man who wears UGGs would also be well up for mantyhose?



    Lot's more pictures here!

    I have to say some of the looks aren't bad. (OK, some of them are ridiculous) Some of the knee length trousers (as opposed to shorts) with (God knows I can't believe I'm saying this) mantyhose look OK... in a kind of 18th Century way. Am not saying it's for me... but there are guys out there who would more than get away with it...

    This is how to wear your hose / tights
    If you don't shave your legs, pantyhose will help to cover your leg hair. if you do shave your legs, pantyhose will cover your naked legs.
    Really , have they ever seen hairy legs in tights?????

    Mind you, I must stress that they were 1000 dernier black tights (or was it 2000), and it was only for a performance .... honest guv! Oh, and then the evidence, um, I mean they were thoroughly incinerated at the end of the run that .... errrrrm ..... my friend, that's right, my friend was involved in!!



    We're men! We're men in tights
    We roam around the forest looking for fights ...

    I'd say almost certainly, and most probably they liked it

    Anyway, what's to worry about? There are plenty of options if hair and mantyhose are considered an offensive combination:
    1. Try some of the very high denier mantyhose on offer
    2. Obscure the hair with one of the lovely patterned designs
    3. Have their Legs done at the same time as their regular Back, Crack and Sack waxing

    Just noticed Magic Hans Signature Line about men in tights
