This piece of clothing was made of two parts, one for each leg. The pieces were put on each leg separately and then wrapped and tied or belted at the waist.
Think about garters or tights for men!
The Romans encountered this style of clothing among the Galli and they called them Braccae. Roman who typically wore tunics found them first quite effeminate even though this was a typical man attire.
