Etymology
The term 'leggings' originated from the 14th century Middle English word 'leggynge', which referred to a covering for the leg. Leggings have evolved over the centuries from simple leg coverings to the modern form-fitting garment we know today. They became especially popular in the 1960s and have remained a staple in many wardrobes ever since.
