Or leggings for men, to give them their full title. Next big male trend [url= http://www.guardian.co.uk/fashion/shortcuts/2012/dec/10/leggings-for-men-meggings-trend ]apparently[/url]
Seems to me that they're not a million miles away from what some cyclists deem as suitable attire to leave the house in. So... who's got a pair or two on their Christmas list then?
When are they going to announce the winner of this "how big a penis can you look" competition?
"taking the fashion world by storm"
Well, that just proves the fashion world is full of giant idiots.
(and let's be honest, most females shouldn't be allowed out in leggings)
No.
The roadies will love it!!
Not me though, i'm fat.
most females shouldn't be allowed out in leggings
The people you see wearing tight clothing/on a nudist beach/carrying an Ann Summers bag home with a cheeky grin are NEVER the people you would WANT to see wearing tight clothing/on a nudist beach/carrying an Ann Summers bag home with a cheeky grin.
This is a science fact.
Argh !, my eyes !.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, ooooooooooooooooo
**reaches for the mind bleach**
😯
Guardian readers 🙄
They're not a million miles away from my skinny jeans tbh.
Ha ha ha ha 😆
Yes, currently 'rocking' the silver ones pictured above 😆
tbh a lot of the cool hipster kids jeans may as well be leggings
I was wearing a pair this very morning.
What's more, they were windproof bib-meggings no less. I also have roubaix bib-meggings, three-quarter bib-meggings and a number of pairs of what I shall now refer to as bib-morts.
On the plus side, I'd prefer these to be worn rather than the other obvious option, which is wearing a t-shirt with "I'm a massive ****t" printed front and back ...
I love my meggings but I'm a slightly anxious that I can't carry the look, so tend to just wear them underneath a Onesie.
Those sliver ones rock!!! Do they do them in Gold and that horrid multi-colour? Do they do them with inserts? So I can look like I have Chris Hoys legs!?
slightly anxious that I can't carry the look
why would anyone aspire to look like a massive idiot?

They're some Howies thermal ones my brother got me for my birthday, and I'm wearing them under my jeans cos my heating is broken.
Ed Oxley was sporting them in the most recent stw.
He looked like he had a Buff round each ankle too so maybe he was going for the 'Kids from Fame have grown up and started doing bikepacking' look.
[edit] just for the record I wrote this before brant tweeted it 😉
I prefer my mockings 😉
I saw them on ITV's Lorraine yesterday.She said they are a big No-No.Best return mine then. 🙄
They were mentioned yesterday on R4's today show.
Non news. Fashion for boys just follows girls trends anyway, just toned downed colours
You've seen Hora in his crop top and hot pants then Emsz?
I was told 'meggings' would be the next big fashion trend about 6 years ago. It didn't really happen.
[b]Meg[/b]gings ?
Does that mean that Women have Legs and Men have [b]Megs[/b] ?
Not sure I can get used to the name change, but I'll do my best.

Can't wait for the male playsuit then 😯
[i]Non news. Fashion for boys just follows girls trends anyway, just toned downed colours[/i]
Those grey halter necks have been well received by all the blokes down my local.
No it means [b]L[/b]adies have [b]L[/b]eggings and [b]M[/b]en have [b]M[/b]eggings..
But I think you have to be a Smeghead to wear them. 😉

Can we soon expect most men in certain areas to be strolling around the isles in Tesco in hello kitty PJ's and Ugg boots then?
I like to carry a banana in mine.

Now you're just being ridiculous.
They'd be Ben10 pyjamas.

Front for a [i]Banana[/i]
In the back ?, thats no Banana.

I hope so, looks very comfy... but I could do without having to put the fright mask on.
Edit. Mens pyjamas will offer loads of opportunity for "fallout" 
[i]Ugg boots[/i]
Men in Ugg Boots?? NEVER! 😆
Ankle boots, earth colours, blocking, posh denim, casual suits for men in AW12/13.
Emsz style tips 8)
No it means Ladies have Leggings and Men have Meggings..
But I think you have to be a Smeghead to wear them.
Ah, I see. So the "Leg" part of "Leggings" is just a coincidence.
They are actually called "Eggings" , and simply prefixed with an initial ?
So the Kids versions will be called
[b]B[/b]eggings
And
[b]G[/b]eggings
Thanks for clearing that up for me. 😉
Ankle boots, earth colours, blocking, posh denim, casual suits for men in AW12/13.
Denim and blazers / double breasted jackets are just there for it to be easier for us to decide who is to be executed when the new world order begins.
I like wearing them. More comfy than baggy shorts.
I'm a tad tubby but still feel sexy in them and this is reinforced by all the looks of admiration i get.
Damn; I'm hot stuff in tights!!
So this is the new look for the Supreme cap, Obey T-shirt, banter booted, drop crotch chino w.anchors?
Mens UGG boot, would they be Mugg boots?
They're easy to wear on the bike, which is a real plus. I prefer tights to trousers for pootling around, but daren't now I'm fat & old. I used to wear Ron Hills & skinny rugby shirts in the 80s, with a bum bag to keep my keys etc in.
Surprisingly, I got asked out a couple of times by young ladies.
I've seen actual Men wearing Ugg Boots.. No really I have.. In Southampton, I know.. ! It's the style capital of Western Europe donchaknow.
As for the Meggings, well as soon as I see an Old Man in them with a large Poo bulging down one leg then I'm convinced they'll be a hit..
For those who remember drain pipe jeans it’s all a bit of a 70’s fashion revival dressed up to be the latest thing
I reckon the sale of Broccoli and Bananas will go through the roof.
kin hell, in this weather button mushroom in clingfilm 😯

I thought the standing fashion advice for men was "whatever it is you're trying to do, you'll probably get it wrong"
No it means Ladies have Leggings and Men have Meggings..
Meggings are a mens version of 'Mumblers'
I reckon the sale of Broccoli and Bananas will go through the roof.
If yours looks like broccoli then I think you should get that checked out 😯 . Thanks for sharing though 🙂
Meh Meggins is well over dude.
New 'old' trend in menswear pants is drop crotch banana style

or Hammer time for more extreme fashionistas. Neither are practical for riding the bike 😕

My son wears them bananas,they're a right b*tch to iron.Oh,the ironing.
There is no ****ING way you'll ever see me in a pair of them!

Simple do what i do with my shirts and jumpers,iron them over a wok 💡

Now you come to mention it... 😆
I've seen trendy London-types wearing something like those Bananas, but really tight in the leg, with a stonewashed finish. Really attractive look, too. 😯
TBH Banana pants are a bikers friend lots of thigh room and they negate the need for trouser clips - although the cocking of the leg over is tough

Were they wearing cagoules?

These dates you went on, were they to dinner parties with loads of strangers by any chance ?? 😉
The people who wear these sort of things should just wear a dress and get it over with 😉
Same goes for men who own skinny jeans, wear tight tops, use hair straighteners, make themselves look like an ooompa looompa with fake tan, take longer to get ready than a woman etc etc 😆
No.
Ugg boots were originally for men
I've seen Nicholas Whitchall wearing some once at Bicester village
trendy London-types wearing something like those Bananas, but really tight in the leg
[embarrassing admission] I have some skinny, carrot cut, track pants (super tight on the lower leg and baggy round the crotch) which I wear with Ugg boots. Most comfortable ‘indoors only’ combo ever. I get changed when I take the bins out though as I’m fully aware I look like a ****. [/embarrassing admission]
I could be up for some Meggings action but I'm not sure I'm ready for the inevitable "visible boxer line" quandary.

I've got Emu sheepskin boots (like Uggs) that I strictly wear indoors as slippers in the house. I ran out in them to catch the bin men the other day and they all (justifiably) pi$$ed themselves at me.
[i] they all (justifiably) pi$$ed themselves at me[/i]
good to see the stw tradition of weeing in boots is upheld by other members of society.
Is Emu waterproof?
Meggings? Uggs? on men? They look bad enough on women!
Shakes head in disbelief...
Oh dear lord god, NO!
Men talking fashion. We know nothing about fashion. "IF" you claim to "know" about or "like" fashion then you're one of them there "blokes" for whom meggings are already an integral part of their "wardrobe". As mtb-ers we know nothing about fashion. Take a look in the mirror. Our long suffering wives really don't care how you dress. You might as well wear a sack with a rope belt, for all the good it will do. Our wives are just humouring us.
* And Ugg boots were originally for blokes. Australian ones though. 😉
teetosugars. WHY would you bother to instagram those pictures?
Have you not noticed the 'Chris Hoy' filter?
Ugg boots I don't mind, I think they're "quite" a good idea if you live in Nothern Europe in a dry climate.. but we don't. We have months of rain, then the sun comes out, then it rains again and all these Girlies that wear Ugg boots find it all too confusing/difficult to change footwear so they wear them there Ugg boots, day in, day out.. and they Stink, and look shite once wet.
Megging No,
Lycra Leggings Yes.

Not being funny, but I'm not too optimistic about the accuracy of men's fashion tips from a lesbian. Especially one who's a regular on a mountain bike forum.
Actually, sorry to pick on you, I wouldnt take tips on fashion from ANYONE who posts on STW.
