Leggings in Summer?

Icegoddess — Fri, 24 May 2019 02:47:03 GMT

I can't even imagine wearing leggings in summer, at least not where I live. Maybe in a cooler climate. Those Copper Fit leggings on the skinny model just don't look right in the crotch. Something's wrong there. Maybe she needs a smaller size than what they come in.

Not here not right now. LOL!!! We have had so much rain it felt like a swamp outside today. More rain tomorrow so the swamp is not moving out.

I am wearing capri leggings right now and I live in the Arizona desert. They are a lighter weight than my winter ones and I am very comfortable.

People wear pants of all lengths in the summer. I don't get the question.

I can't/won't wear leggings in summer. I want something non-clingy and airy. I've even got ponte knit capris that are too hot for most summer days.

I also wear capri leggings and jeggings in the summer with sleeveless, flowy tops that are long enough to cover in back. I’ve also decided that my wrinkled knees won’t be of concern to anyone, so I’m getting some jegging bermuda shorts!

Summer is the only time I ever wear leggings!! Our winters are way too cold for skinny little leggings.

Yes, I wear capri length (in lighter colors usually) but sometimes in wild prints that I am finding now! tropical things!

As far ashow the crothch fit on those, IIMHO one should not be showing (much if any) crotch when wearing leggings, longer tops are in orderyyt

It does get very hot here in So Cal, so I wear a lot of dresses too, especially to work, and rarely wear leggings to work..

I've been known to wear them year round. Sometimes even my leather ones. Summer can find me indoors most of the time and sometimes with quite cool AC working.

@freakygirl

Same here. Not only regardless of the weather but regardless of size, shape, or age. It must be so liberating not to give a hoot.

I wear pants all seasons but LEGGINGS seem a bit hot for summer because of how they seem to cling. I like a bit of air flowing through. LOL

They are like a uniform around where I live. Even white leggings on all shapes and sizes ... Oh to be that evolved not to care what anyone thinks. Somehow, I doubt that will ever happen to me..

It depends on the leggings, all leggings aren't the same. There summer weight leggings. There are capris length leggings and ankle leggings. There are leggings with mesh inserts and cutouts. Leggings come in all colors too. Also, it depends where you live and what your actitivies are that day. It's not like every single summer day is a humid 90 degree day. Many of us have plenty of summer days when the temperature never gets out of the 70's.

If you saw me in leggins you'd pay me to not wear them....Yes, that bad.

But I do wear long pants most of the year. My legs get cold in air conditioning.

I don't have a thyroid (removed) so my body temp is constantly changing.

If I were to go to the beach, I'd wear longer shorts...but I don't go out in the sun just for the sake of it, so I probably wouldn't be out on the beach.
