Our Review

These tights are the replacement for the Marks and Spencer Look on Legs Bare Slip Resist Sole Tights that replaced the earlier version of these tights.

Like most of the current range of M&S sheer tights these are made in China.

First impressions are not great, straight unshaped legs attached to a boxer style brief.  The seams in the brief are quite nicely made, but not flat, and there is a cotton lined gusset. It is a pity because the style this replaces were of sheer to waist construction.

On the plus side the look and feel on the legs is great and the completely sheer toes make this style ideal for wear with open shoes. They really are almost invisible.

The light fabric of the legs has plenty of stretch if you have long or heavy legs. The panty on the other hand is not generously sized and will feel a little tight if you go beyond the quoted sizing.  Large will cope with a tall UK dress sizes up to 16, above that you will need the XL.

The non-slip is just a triangle under the ball of the foot, not a full non-slip sole as suggested by the picture on the packet.

The cooling effect does seem to work, at least on first wearing.

A great nude look for your legs, such a pity they are not sheer to waist.
