When I started riding in 1990- it was spring and I went all summer with all my mates riding with bare legs. Then winter came and one of the mates turned up one morning wearing a pair of tights similar to these.

It was 1990 and I found out I was riding with a colour blind rider. Made me realise that sensible clothing does not come out of the sales bin. But he had not bought them from the sales bin- He had actually ordered them from the LBS as his choice.
