Winter Clothing in 1st century AD legionary re-enactment

What evidence do we have for the use of leg wraps in the Roman army, period?
We have evidence for bindings, much later, so I would like to know precisely what we
have in the way of hard fact that says the Romans wore leg wraps?
I keep hearing the Danish Bog finds quoted.....

Was I incorrect to refer to them as "leg wraps"? I thought leg coverings had already been discussed? If I recall correctly, Byron, wasn't it you who loaned your pair out this summer/fall to help a new reenactor cover his tattoos?
