Super Bowl XLIII Champs in…Leggings?

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

Last week we at eModa wrote about our dismay that AFC champs (and now Super Bowl XLIII champs!) the Pittsburgh Steelers chose to wear their white “away” uniforms over the stylish black of their “home” uniforms…what self-respecting football team would commit the classic fashion faux-pas of wearing white after labor day? The Steelers, evidently.

However, the team redeemed itself this past Sunday…though they did wear those dreadful white jerseys, they complemented them with an article of clothing that definitely passes eModa’s fashion standards…leggings!

Yes, we know they’re not actually -called- leggings, but face it…those form-fitting, stretchy pants closely resemble any pants ever released by Factory Girl or Romeo & Juliet Couture. Both uniform pants and leggings are designed to offer maximum comfort and moving-around ability, right? Exactly. Maybe next year’s Super Bowl competitors will rock True Religion Brand helmets…unlikely, yes. Impossible? Nope!
