Android-Inspired Tights

The Darkhorse ‘Maria' Robot Leggings are for Aspiring Cyborgs

These Darkhorse Robot Leggings are the perfect way for anyone to feel and look like a robot without getting a fancy operation like the Bionic Man or Woman. These leggings are said to be inspired by the Fritz Lang 1920s sci-fi movie 'Metropolis,' which makes me want to check this movie out as well as buy myself these tights.

So, put away all thoughts of dipping your legs into melted metal or getting them cast-ironed, since these tights achieve the same look and don’t cost as much.
