All three of them!. It normally depends on the rest of the costume and what colours look good together!. From what I've seen It's mostly white or grey!.!.!.there is some black tights but it's not that common!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It really depends on if the tights are for a performance or for class wear!.

For class wear, the traditional male color tights are black, with a white tight fitting shirt/capped sleeve leotard!. These are most commonly worn, just as a black leotard is most common (and traditional) for female dancers!.

For performance, I have seen many different colors depending on the costume!. I think you would have to think of the most common (famous and traditional) ballets in order to choose the most common color for tights!. For example, in the Nutcracker the Nutcracker wears white tights!. In Swan Lake, the Prince wears black/grey tights!. So it depends really on which ballet it is!.!.!. although i would have to say the most common performance tights are black, white and grey, purely because the ballets such as the Nutcracker and Swan Lake use mainly these colours!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
