RE:
Why do football players wear skin-tight pants?

The thin, tight material reduces friction on the air and in between there legs. This lets them go way faster. It also reduces sweat build up I the penis area which can be uncomfortable and itchy.

I would hazard to say when they are being tackled the material that the pants are made from make it more difficult to get a decent grip on them. If one wore loose pants it would be easier to get ahold of and easier to rip.

I think its because if they were wearing baggy jeans, they would fall over themselves and be slower. Wearing the material they wear tight, disables that from happening.

I think its because it makes it easier for them to move around the field plus i'm sure it helps with body temp levels and all that while they're out there running around.

The reason for that is because if they wear loose clothing it could get cought on each others hands etc.

It protects their skin better when they fall and slide etc. If the pants were loose the would pull up, and rip and the road rash would be horrible.

i play football and the reason is to keep ur pads pressed against where they need to protect and also u can tackle someone just by grabbing on to a piece of clothing so u dont want baggy pants if that anyone can just bring u down with

Our thigh pads and knee pads have to stay in contact with our legs.
