Today, NBA player Russell Westbrook of Oklahoma Thunder released an exclusive collaboration with Barneys and Jordan, trading his love for Rick Owens drop-crotch pants in favor of a snugger fit — the collection includes tights (multicolored, animal printed, and $165 a pair). Although athletic tights are commonly styled under shorts, as seen on Westbrook in the look book, it’s only a matter of time before they break into the wild as a fashion statement on their own. For starters, the fashionable DJ Diplo already braved the look.

There are more where these came from; don’t say we didn’t try and warn you. Before meggings hit your local court, click through our slideshow to see other styles spotted on the spring 2015 menswear runways last month.
