Does anyone know how to say tights in Spanish? Like the tights that go on your legs, like leggings?

There are a few words, it depends on the country in some cases and on what kind of tights you're talking about.
tights as in pantyhose = pantimedias, medias de nylon, pantis, or just medias (which can also mean socks in Latin America)
"leotardos" might work, that can mean leggings too, and "malla" is used in the context of ballet or gymnastics.
Wikipedia has a Spanish entry about types of "medias":

Go to Dictionary.com On that site they have a translator that you can use from English to any language that you can think of. Give it a try!

I'd use 'las mallas' for leggings.
