Toast tights

[PoppityPing]

Anyone have these? Are they really that much better than other tights?
Any good for tall girls? I always have tights trouble (inside leg 34")

I toyed with the idea of those. However, went for the £8 cotton blend ones from M&S instead yesterday (in grey) and they are lovely.

They are, according to Jajas, Doré-Doré (DD) French tights - which are available in all department store tight departments or in good sock shops here in France. Doré-Doré is a fabulous brand - I always buy their tights for me and DD as they last longer than any others. And yes, they will be fine if you are tall - just get size 3 or 4 (depending on whether you are slim or rounder build).

Thanks, I might try the M&S, are they any good for tall do you think?

Bonsoir, I have just googled that name thanks, they only have a medium left at Toast, and although I am 10-12, I have an, ahem...generous rump. I haven't found any opaques in the UK yet, but will keep looking.

I did find these however. Off to start a thread....

Yes they are fine for tall. I am only 5' 6" but I cannot abide tights which are even remotely short in the leg.....I end up feeling like a toddler I always buy a medium but preferably a large even though I am only an 8-10.

Yes, I often get the extra large- I need pants over the top to hold them up though

I have some too, and they are good. I have some cheaper ones from Tchibo which looked similar at first but have bobbled.

You can order them - Doré Doré Coton Cote - from www.socksfox.com - free delivery (throughout Europe!) on orders of more than 25 pounds. Size 4 = Toast's large.

The Toast opaque 50 deniers, which I don't have, are called Doré Doré Colore 50 and socksfox have them as well.

I'm 5' 8 with legs longer than the rest of me IYSWIM and the large/4 are a good fit. However, I also ordered the size 5 by mistake (XL - which Toast don't do) and they're good too.

Thanks vesela, that's really handy to know. I have checked that site now, but I can't seem to look at the pages, something to do with cookies. I'll get DH on it, I'd really like a pair.

That's interesting - I can't get into it either (or rather I get so far but then can't click on the actual product link). However, I assumed it was something to do with my computer because the same thing started happening with Boden (just as well, really) about a week ago.

The odd thing is that if I click on a link to something in e.g. the Boden review thread, I can see it fine, but if I go into the site by myself as it were, I get that error message.

Do you use Firefox? Maybe they did something recently that's causing it.

Yes, I use firefox, haven't had any other problems yet though. Just checked Boden and it's alright for me. I was the same, just couldn't get as far as the product on the sockfox site.

I had the same problem with the Dore Dore section and have emailed them about.

"about it". Doh.

Link to dore dore tights now fixed, sorry for the problem, slight glich!

Coo - thank you
