  Tights Tuesday At Ironworks
Every sport has major fashion trends. Bjorn Borg popularized the shaggy hair and headband phenomenon for tennis. Dennis Rodman made tattoos, piercings, and eccentric outfits acceptable in basketball. For climbing, one major trend has been with the sport since its introduction in the late 80s- tights. Spandex, lycra, long underwear, and incredibly tight hipster jeans have become a staple of climbing fashion. In honor of tights, Todd "The Bod" Bartlow and other members of Berkeley Ironworks will be rocking their best tights on Tuesday night from 6pm til close.

A big thanks to Sebastien as well as Vitaly for their great idea of promoting high fashion in the gym!

James, you've got to stop with 'The Bod'. That's so last year... Also, I think Seb gets credit for this idea.
 
James, Yes give Sebastian full credit for this strangeness.
Todd, So NOT last year. 'The Bod' will never go out of style.
 
strangeness?? I think the word you're looking for is "awesomeness". credit must go to Vitaly as well - we're co-creators of the movement.
 
Thanks for the correction guys! Glad to hear The Bod isn't gonna be alone tonight!
