Jeggings
are
leggings
which are
styled to
look like
tight
denim
jeans.
The 'j'
not only
refers to
the
appearance
of
denim,
but also
to the
fact that
they were
first worn
for
jogging
in early
2009.
Apart from
the 'jean'
adaptation,
some
jeggings
are made
with a new
type of
nylon
named
nylon PV1.
Jeggings are worn
primarily by
women. They are
especially popular
among teenage
girls and young
women, brought on
by the resurgence
in style of
skinny jeans
in the mid- to
late-2000's, when
a higher demand
for even tighter
style of pant came
about. However,
Apparel Search
has commented
that jeggings are
an important trend
in the youth
market.
Since they
are
typically
made of a
denim/spandex
blend
(however,
sometimes
other
materials
are used
and have
detailing
to give
the
appearance
of denim)
and simply
resemble
regular
tight
pants,
they are
often worn
on their
own as
opposed to
under a
skirt or
dress.
Some
jeggings
have faux
zip-flies
and
pockets,
while
others
just have
an elastic
waistband
and no
pockets.
Jeggings
come in
many
styles and
sizes.
You can
find
women's
jeggings,
girls
jeggings,
maternity
jeggings,
plus size
jeggings,
designer
jeggings
and more.
