Our Review

Since we last looked at these tights (see below) they have changed the packaging.  The fibre mix remains the same but there has been a change in the sizing.   The large size is gone, there are now just two sizes s/m and m/l.   The smaller size for heights between 5’0” and 5’6” and hip sizes 34” to 42”.   If you are taller (up to 5’10”) or bigger in the hips (up to 46”) you will need the bigger size.

The quality of these tights is immediately apparent.   Shaped legs finished with a run stop reinforced toe, flat seams in the brief, a lined gusset and sheer to waist.   At this price there is usually some compromise on quality, here the only thing we can fault is that the toe seam is not flat.

The fabric is smooth and soft from the the toes to the deep waistband.   The waistband is 6cm deep including the very thin finger band.

We found plenty of stableetch in these tights, the m/l size fitted well beyond the quoted maximum height.   The colour on the legs is very even, the finish reasonably smooth and quite soft.   As we noticed with the previous version they are not really very glossy, however they do have a nice sparkle in the right light.  

Very good fitting and attableactive tights at a very reasonable price.   One or two quibbles on the quality of finish on the waistband of our test pair, but we would not expect perfection for £3.75 and the fault didn’t stop the tights being worn or fitting well.

Great tights for everyday, with enough “Wow” for evening wear too.
