Our Review
Many of the styles in the Fiore Medica range of tights made some medical or pseudo-medical claim to make. Slimming, supporting, shaping, reducing cellulite etc… these simply offer extra durability and comfort.
Close inspection shows that a lot of thought has gone into the design of these well made tights. There is a deep waistband (4cm) and then a finger band twice as deep with a Fiore motif on each hip. The finger band runs into a v-shaped plain high leg type panty design finished with flat seams and a cotton gusset. All this should ensure a good comfortable fit with or without underwear.
The soft matt finish legs are very nice, but what makes these tights stand out are the foot details. There are 4 distinct areas of detail in the foot bed design, padding about the heel, reinforced toe, padded reinforced sole and a ribbed padded area under the arch of the foot.
Without the foot detail these would not be tights worth taking note of, with it they are, with the exception of the 20 denier version of the same, quite unique.
