Leggings

The history of women’s leggings: from sports garment to fashion statement

Leggings as we know them today have drastically changed throughout history, but there is one thing that has remained stable over time: their practicality. Their origin goes back to some types of tights that were worn in Europe, from the 13th century onwards, and in the Americas. In the 1960s, a tighter fit version inspired by ballerina garments appeared, but it was with the aerobics boom of the 1970s-80s that leggings began to establish themselves as basic sportswear. Finally, in 2010, leggings entered street fashion trends (not without sparking controversies) and today their use in both fashion and sports contexts has been formalized. Today, many brands and designers take advantage of the versatile nature of these piece of clothing to create models that can be worn for workouts as well as for the most hyped parties in town. In the Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops selection, you will find both sports and fashion leggings, as well as leather and compression leggings for women.
