Soft comfortable tights.

11 replies

Apolloanddaphne · 09/09/2019 12:24

I am looking for some soft comfortable tights in navy and/or burgundy for wearing with a denim dress and boots in the winter.

I am 5'6" and a size 16. I am apple shaped so I need them to be stretchy and comfortable round my middle. Am happy to pay a bit for great tights.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Snag tights. No contest.

I have seen snag tights mentioned a few times. I will check them out. How are they for sizing?

Brilliant for sizing. I'm a 22 and have a 32" inside leg so usually find tights impossible to buy. They are fabulous - no need to pull them up at the crotch all day!

I swear Snag has a bot that finds every single thread about tights on the entire internet and posts on it within minutes!

Not me! You'll be able to see I have a normal posting history. I came online at the right time 🤷‍♀️

What is special about snag tights?

TwattingDog · 09/09/2019 14:56

They go up to good plus sizes, also down to small sizes, long or short leg lengths, and to be fair they are very good quality with lots of colours available.

I found them after someone on here recommended the chub rub shorts for summer.

Came here to say snag tights 🤣

I used to buy tights from every shop, every brand, every size and they were always too long or too tight or fell down. I hated walking around having to yank my tights up all the time because apparently when you buy a bigger size they’re longer, not wider 🙄 or wearing two pairs of knickers etc

I was recommended snag on Facebook or instagram and ordered three pairs to get the deal they had on expecting they’d end up in the bin but they were amazing. I now have them in nine colours and their chub rub shorts and I always recommend them.

They come in great colours, they are so comfortable, never fall down, sizing was correct, customer service is good and they wash well. I’ll never buy tights from anywhere else.

I love my snag tights. They aren't a perfect fit for me, but they are still the best I've ever found. I find the Fs are the best for my 5ft 5" size 20 bottom, but they do sag towards the end of the day (at the ankle, not the crotch) I can fit into E's but they can feel a bit snug.
I'm not a fan of their chub rub shorts though, although I have a few. I find them a bit hot. I prefer the big tights company aztec shorts.

I ordered the size E.
