Snag tight?

[Workyticket]

I usually buy Primark cheapies but they're awful really. I'm a chubby 16 with short legs so they're either way too long or they dig in.

I'm balling at paying £20 odd quid for 3 pairs of tights though!

They’re life changing, one of the best things I ever bought. Extremely comfortable and I no longer suffer from the dreaded crotch drop or having to constantly roll my tights back up. I bought 4 pairs which have lasted me a year so far, as opposed to buying a new pack every month.

The chub rub shorts are an absolute game changer. Can’t recommend highly enough.

They are great tights tbf

They’re woven from magic dust and unicorn glitter.

Seriously -don’t care what they’re made from. Total game-changer. I’m short with ‘sturdy’ thighs and small waist - I put these on and I don’t spend all day trying to yank them back up my legs.

I’ve had mine 2 years now and the only pair I’ve bust was by hooking them on something I walked past (clumsy) as opposed to fingers.

Worth every penny compared to trying 16 different brands which just don’t fit.

I am more than a little about their swimwear though…

Excellent tights!

My M&S ones used to roll down - this has never happened with snag

Do they do that annoying twisting thing as you put them on?

Another vote for Snag, I hate tights with a vengeance as find them itchy and droopy but these are so comfortable. I'm short and round and they fit great. I'm going to try the chub rub shorts now, I have some from big bloomers but they're a bit hot to wear.

They’re amazing, they allow us to have communal tights somehow and we’re a size 6, 10 and 14, it’s witchcraft!

Do you end up with holes in your toes?

I won't buy anything but snag tights. I'm a 24/26 and 5'3 and buy the short F size. Got about 20 pairs now including some of the footless tights. I also have their leggings which are the best I've ever worn.

Worth every penny and always coming out with new designs and colours.

Do it. You will love them.

I love snags!! I've got about 15 pairs now and I love them, the chub rub shorts are great too, so comfy! The colours hold up well and they're so comfy, I used to never ever wear tights if I could avoid it, but if I'm wearing snags I'm usually in them til bedtime, as they're so comfy!

Another evangelical about Snag! I only wear them and they are neigh on bomb proof. The chub rub shorts are great too - I’ve bought some for relatives and they are also now converts.

Cheap tights can ruin your day and are a false economy.

Snag are much better value for money in the long run.

Do they have a seam up the middle of your stomach? I can't find any tights that don't rub there 😬

I love my snags. I have them in loads of different colours. Love the chub rub shorts too. Rights and shorts have totally transformed the way I dress.

Snags are made for a big arse basically. So you don't have to try and hoik them up. They just fit. It is life changing.

I am more than a little about their swimwear though…

I was excited about the swimwear, then I looked at it. But I love their tights and the chub rub shorts are a lifesaver!

Do they do opaque thinner ones too. I sometimes wear dresses with opaque tights and get fed up with dresses sticking to them as I walk. Anyone know if buying Snags will avoid this?

I bought 5 pairs based on the recommendations on here and only one pair survived past the first wear. I always wonder how many of the posts on these threads are their media marketing team.

Well I'm not, I'd be using way more exclamation marks

I don’t know what on earth you were doing with them then! I’ve had several pairs for a couple of years and they are as good as the day I bought them.

Feel free to check my prior posts and you’ll see I don’t work in marketing

I can guarantee I'm not a marketer. Check previous posts lol! I'm a fat payroll manager who loves snag tights 😂

I don't like the swimwear either. I think it's incredibly unflattering!

I just had a look at their swimwear (

I’m 5’11” and size 24. No other tights fit me.

I am a marketer but not for snag. I wear lots of jewellery and have long nails and never once snagged or got a hole in my snag tights.

Someone asked about thinner ones, the 30 denier are just as fab and I've also tried the 120 super thick wool ones. They do have a front seam but no rubbing at all.
