How do you store your opaque tights?

Mine are in a plastic bag. Blush It serves the basic purpose of not snagging them, but no matter how I tuck them into nice perfect balls they loosen with every rummage. It always looks like a nest of snakes in there and I always take one glance, decide I can't be arsed and pull out jeans instead.

I find drawers even worse for them escaping to either end or worse, getting caught and snagged when I open and close it.

There are people who wear opaques every day! They must have some amazing storage trick I don't know about.....Confused

I hang mine in the wardrobe, on those trouser hangers with a flat bar at the bottom. About five pairs per hanger.

This is going to sound like overkill, but I store them in ziplock bags, the size you use for airline liquids, and then in a drawer.

That is genius. I might just throw all my tights out and start again!

Ziplock bags?

In kondo style, fold in half almost but so the feet are about 1 inch short of the waist band then roll. Store the rolls on end in a shoe box, children's shoe boxes are good for this.

Sorry, and store shoe box in underwear drawer
