I know tights below the knee or shorts are illegal but what about leg sleeves?
Don't go looking for trouble when there isn't any.

I would allow it and follow up with a report to your state and/or local assigner.

Had a player with two of them on his legs the other night. Looked dorky, but the sleeve rule refers to arm sleeves. Nothing to report IMO.

Maybe, but the unusual nature of the issue would lead me to send a quick email.

On a side note, I'm curious about how these feel and ordered some to try. If I like them, they may take the place of long tights.

I had a Muslim team a few years back. Players arms and legs were completely covered. All legal. No compressions, but could easily have been taken for them.

grunewar: Please delete your post. We have a lot of new guys posting on the Forum who might question this, and we all know that Mark Padgett can't resist replying.
