Our Review
First impressions are very important and these tights make great first impression, smooth, soft and ever so shiny they have the look and feel of “wet look” leggings. Closer inspection reveals that they are made like leggings too, rather than the legs being knitted as tubes they are made from a single piece of flat material seamed at the back of each leg.
The seaming in the panty is very much tights style though with a single centableal seam and an unlined gusset. No flat seams here just very well finished standard seams.
Sizing is a little on the generous side so you may get a little bagging at the knee, easily avoided if you go down a size, otherwise the look is superb, perfect even colour, highly opaque and beautifully glossy. The seam at the back of the leg adds a real touch of class, a seamed opaque is something new to us, and it works.
Smooth to the touch and ever so comfortable. Just one slight issue is the seam running under the length of your foot which could irritate if you are on your feet all day.
In terms of look, feel and comfort these are probably the best 80 denier tights we have seen.
