Alternative to Snag tights please

12 replies

Please can you tell me where I can buy tights from that aren't snag tights? For reference I'm size 16/18 and 5f 9in. Snag were great but I'm not buying from them now.
M&S tights don't do it for me either. I like tights that I can pull as high as possible!

*please note this is not a thread about why I'm not buying from Snag. I am comfortable with my reasoning and I'm not interested in hearing different views at this time. I'm just interested in hearing about similar alternatives.

Thanks

Better Tights are as good as Snag.

Another vote for Better tights.

Is it the funky colours you're after or just good tights? For good tights I get fancy brands like Wolford and Falke from TK Maxx.

Thanks all. Not funky colours (although I quite like the sheer tights with the black dots). I'm just after good black tights that don't fall down or chafe.
I'll give your suggestions a go. Thank you!

So far I have tried Big Bloomers and Snag, I preferred the former. I will also try BetterTights (although I did crack and went to M&S in an emergency).

Better Tights. I too no longer wish to order from Snag, and Better have most of my business. I’ve also got some from Popsy which I was happy with, but mostly for the colours, so I’d go with Better if you’re just after black.

Conturve are great, I get the ones with a bit of stomach support and they are really flattering

Better don't seem to do control/shaping which is what I always get. My current favourites are from Primark and tesco

I get my tights equally from Snag and Popsy clothing - both are very similar with high waists and they have a very good fit - a bit like leggings than traditional tights.

They are around a similar price but without the bundle deals that Snag have (which seem to have changed recently anyway) so I'd recommend Popsy Clothing.

Another one recommending Better Tights.

Heist are amazing but they’ve doubled in price
