Our Review

The first thing you notice when you open the packet is how soft these tights feel. Unwrapping them reveals sheer to waist tights with a shaped heel and reinforced toes.

The sheer to waist look is let down a little by the very deep waistband (5 cm) and the finger band beneath it (3 cm)

The seams in the body are of reasonably good quality but sadly they are not flat. There is a cotton lined gusset for fit and hygiene.

Leg length does not look overly generous but there is plenty of stretch and the fit on the leg is perfect. Sizing is perhaps a little more generous that the size chart suggests.

The look and feel on the leg is great too, very soft to the touch and an ever so subtle sheen.  The colour is very even and fabric sheer enough to ensure that it is your legs that are noticed not your tights.

The deep waistband and finger band are less obvious once you have them on and they keep everything in place.

It is pity that such light sheer tights have a reinforced toe that prevents you wearing them with open toe shoes in the summer but these are very nice tights and good value. If they are as ladder resistant as claimed they would be ideal for everyday wear.
