It is very on trend as we’ve seen men in tights appear in many a magazine editorial. Try to transfer this [fashion look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flex-as-you-go) to real life, and it is a very different story. I think it is strange and none of these hot-looking men (sadly in tights) will change my mind. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Men in Tights Fashion:** Opportunity to disrupt traditional gender norms and promote the acceptance of men wearing tights as a fashionable everyday attire. - **Body Positivity for Men:** Disrupting societal beauty standards by championing body positivity for all genders, including men in tights. - **Gender-neutral Fashion:** Creating innovative designs and marketing campaigns that blur the lines between traditional gender roles and embrace gender-neutral fashion trends like men in tights. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can capitalize on the trend of men in tights by designing inclusive and fashionable tights specifically tailored for men. - **Advertising:** Advertising agencies can create disruptive campaigns that challenge societal norms and promote acceptance of men in tights as a mainstream fashion choice. - **Sports and Fitness:** Sports and fitness brands can explore collaborations and create performance-focused tights for men, tapping into the growing demand for comfortable and stylish activewear. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Empowering Menopause Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-your-best-menopause.md) - [Redefined Masculinity Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tough-guys-soft-sweaters.md) - [3D Contouring Boxers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manmades-the-boxer-brief.md) - [Health Awareness Undergarments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/underaware.md) - [Performance Functional Leggings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tighties.md) - [Female Empowerment Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enough.md) - [Inclusive Undergarment Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taimi.md) - [Empowering Superhero-Inspired Shapewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inner-armour.md) - [Men-Focused Mental Health Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterhelp-1.md)
