tights
Stretchy leg coverings
Tights are a snug-fitting garment covering the legs and usually the torso up to the waist, made of stretchy material like nylon or spandex.
They differ from stockings by being a single piece rather than two separate leg coverings.
Dancers and gymnasts wear opaque tights; sheer tights serve as women's hosiery.
In British usage, tights covers what Americans call pantyhose.
