In light of Tyson Kidd joining the ranks of the increasingly rare long tight wearers, I thought this would be a fun topic to show what can be done with the bigger canvas tights provide versus short trunks. In no particular order: I still don't know why he went to the purple variant... and the other speed stripe variants from Edge's last run I may be a little biased towards Jericho, but seriously, he's had some good ones.

I love that one. Any time the tights really have something to do with the gimmick, instead of just being a cool design, it's awesome

This times 1000. I wish Dolph would adopt the airbrushed tights...he could do wonders with it.

Macho Man always had cool looking long tights. The 1990 Royal Rumble tights looked pretty good.

Really liked Edge's tights from 2010-2011, with the skulls and stars-particularly the red ones with the matching red boots.

JEEZ some of those Rude tights, especially from WCW, are just epic. The one with the geishas looking at a picture of him is brilliant.

Rude's tights were works of art.

More Rude I sure miss the days before most everyone wore short black trunks.

I've always thought HBK owned this award. He's always had great designs over the years. I'm glad Rude got mentioned plenty because he was certainly in a league of his own.

I always liked Edge's camouflage tights. The gray ones and I think he had a purple variation at one point.
