“guess I don’t have to worry about it till I’m married”
Who knows, Itche.. you / your wife (b’korov mamash!) maybe A-ok with the leggings look, and then you are good to go.
The diff between tights and leggings is this: tights get worn inside shoes (and are in many ways more tzinus than hose are)
Leggings are more akin to pants, and that is going in a direction we try to avoid
In the NY metro area, the leggings look is considered to be very modern. If my wife were to wear that look, my kids would be looking for a new yeshiva, I’d be looking for a new shul, ect.
Not a problem in all circles. A HUGE problem in certain circles. Hair sticking out from tichel by the ears is not nearly as big a touchstone as the leggings are.
Still, it depends who / where you see yourself as. Maybe in other neighborhoods, the leggings are totally ok.
Any other opinions?
