Leg WarmerLeg Warmers are a type of clothing similar to a sock except that they are footless. Leg warmers were traditionally made of pure wool, though nowadays they are typically made from a mixture of manmade fibres. Worn by dancers, leg warmers are functional pieces of clothing used to keep the lower legs warm. In the early 1980s they were part of a fad when they became popular with teenage girls as everyday clothing. Their popularity was partly due to the influence of the films Fame and Flashdance and the concurrent aerobics craze. However, they had retreated back into relative obscurity by 1986. See also
