When Superman's costume was created by Joe Shuster around 1934 or '35, he wanted it to resemble an outfit worn by a circus strongman. He also wanted to balance out the color scheme (all primaries) so Supes would look a bit flashier when tossing cars around and such.

Because his tights would look like a pajama without the underwear over it.

The underwear was in rope for dry! And he was in sky and jump on it!
Jump was strong and underwear fits life long!

So, that his tights will not roll down. He goes through a lot of intense places so he must make sure that the tights stay in place. :)

Because he's stupid.
Remember that's what the S stands for.
It's all about Green Lantern baby!

must be a fashion statement... he would look odd.. if he was all blue and didn't have red on his lower body to match the red 'S'... and socks are too low
