Need just that - bought from several, quite expensive places and they either snag very easily or bobble terribly.

All tried and tested recommendations welcome. Thanks.

Primark ladies suit DD - they wash well and are cheap if they get trashed!

BubblesBuddy · 07/01/2020 17:18

Just buy m and s ones in a small size. How old is DD? XS would be ok maybe?

Sharkyfan · 07/01/2020 17:20

I am struggling a bit with this too - dd is 11.5 and doesn’t want ‘woolly thick’ ones.
Have been buying next ones but she goes through them quickly.

Sainsbury's women's size S

M&S 40 denier. Brilliant. Great fit.

SmellMySmellbow · 07/01/2020 17:21

I know Snag tights are meant to be brilliant

astralweaks · 07/01/2020 17:23

They last for ages and do not snag.

frugalkitty · 07/01/2020 21:19

I buy my DD the primark 40 denier tight for school, £3 for three pairs and they last and wash well.

frugalkitty · 07/01/2020 21:21

Before these, she had the thicker M&S tights from the school uniform section, they were good too (£5 for two pairs I think).

zoobincan · 07/01/2020 21:30

I guess it depends on the age (and size) but we just buy both DD's tights in Tesco.

sanitygirl · 08/01/2020 19:25

Just get M&S women's in XS

CherryPavlova · 08/01/2020 19:32

Snag thicker ones are good?
M and S XS ones?

Trewser · 08/01/2020 19:34

M and S small

Greyhound22 · 08/01/2020 20:48

I'm not a fan of Primark normally but I don't think you can beat their tights. £1 a pair as well.

RNBrie · 08/01/2020 20:51

Snag tights are excellent and do kids sizes.

ParkheadParadise · 08/01/2020 20:52

Primark
Peacocks

sherbetmelon · 08/01/2020 22:48

Another vote for sainsburys. £5 for 3 pairs but I stock up when they have their 25% off. They're good quality and the nicest 'budget' tights I've tried. I usually have 40 denier but they do a 60 too.

northernlittledonkey · 08/01/2020 22:55

Boots 70 denier.

yougotanology · 09/01/2020 09:33

I just picked some up in Sainsbury's! 80 denier in small - will report back...
