Our Review

If you hadn’t noticed that these tights are fishnet with a lot of Lycra the size of them as they come out of a packet could be a shock; they look to be scarcely big enough for a 3 year old.   Unlike many fishnets these are not one size but are in fact made in two sizes (1/2 and 3/4), we tested the larger size.

Close inspection starts to reveal why these tights are nearly £9 a pair.  Firstly they are knitted in one piece and rather than a small seam in the gusset area there is a full size cotton lined gusset. The waistband is a narrow elastic one attached to the main body of the tights with a flat seam. The toe detail is a simple seam in common with most other fishnets.

You can feel a real strength and resistance in the these tights as you stretch them to put them on... on the leg this translates to a really good close fit.  Sizing is accurate and there is strength and stretch to go beyond the suggested sizing if you need.  The waistband finished on your waist. 

The fishnet pattern is a little more fine than a classic fishnet, but not to fine as a micronet.

Among the best made, best fitting, best looking fishnet tights we have seen.
