Jegging: mixture of the word
jean and legging
Jeggings were invented in the early 2000s because people wanted both jeans but not bulky or made of denim. Jeggings are stretchy leggings with either a
jean pattern printed on it, or colored strings woven in a
jean pattern. These are not to be confused with jorts. If someone were to see you confused jeggings with jorts, the fashion police would be called immediately.
