I wear leg warmers all the time. At dance and in everyday life. As for what it "feels like", they keep my legs warm (hence, "leg warmers"). They are more of a fashion statement for me. I think they look great with some boots or some pumps.

"leg warmer

typical legwarmers.Leg 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 cotton and/or 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 1989.

In 2004 leg warmers made a brief comeback and were once again worn as a fashion item. This time they are usually more toned-down than the 80's style, and are worn to dress up casual outfits. They have also been worn with flip flops. Leg warmers are frequenty worn in the rave scene.

A new take on legwarmers has been arm warmers, first seen as a wider fashion piece in the fall of 2004.

On the Showtime comedy, Dead Like Me, the character Roxy is the creator of the leg warmer, and was strangled to death with her own invention by a friend who wanted to take the credit for herself."

In everyday life? Gosh, I don't wear my legwarmes to school. That would be too strange, lol.

In a studio - very warm. Sometimes too warm.
