Thick nude tights

I love really high waisted thick black tights with waist and tummy control. Has anyone ever found the same thing but in a nude colour so it looks like fabulously tanned, non-varicose veins?

Unlikely

Have you looked at dancers tights? Or performers tights? They're often well coloured for the stage lights and might be what you're after?

Wolford

Snag do 50d nude tights.
Hate their adverts, love the tights.

Those magic tights? They are fleece but look like your skin. Wish I could find them in petite.

Better Tights do them. Fit as good as Snag. Slightly cheaper. You'll find discounts online for Better Tights as well as direct discounts for ordering more than 1 pair.

Ooo thanks I'll look out for those, it will begreatto have an alternative. I think snag have just put their prices up, and I am scared to go on their website at work as some of the images are NSFW.

Great thread. Am wondering if natural coloured tights might make a revival as we hit the autumn when it's too chilly for bare legs and not wintry enough for black opaques.

I think I'd feel a bit like Nora Batty in thick nude ones!

Thanks all for taking the time to come back to me. I think I might be being a bit too aspirational!

I bought Wolford 40 denier nude tights for a fancy dress costume. Fabulously tanned, non-varicose veined legs from afar … a bit Nora Batty up close. But they do exist!

I don’t know if they still do, but John Lewis used to sell support tights which are quite thick, in a couple of ‘nude’ type shades. I really like them, and they do help with tired legs from standing all day.

I think thick skin coloured tights will always look a little off up close in person as they quite obviously won't be skin. I have these which are thick, fleece-lined, and cosy, but the sheer black overlay makes it look 'real'.

LuciferRising · 22/08/2023 21:54

Those are what I have but my legs are too short. If I could find a petite I'd buy as they look great.

margotsdevil · 22/08/2023 21:58

Snag and Popsy both do these. They're great and come in different shades of nude. Exactly what you're asking for!

Yes I bought some for DSD who likes to wear short skirts in winter. They were something like this but cheaper. Fleece lined but appear nude colour, fine but really warm.
