Free Your Feet! Let you toes out or go barefoot walking with Footless Tights!

-

With spring just around the corner you might be looking to give your wardrobe a refresh. Here in the UK spring can still be a little chilly at times so you might not be ready to go bare legged just yet, so chances are you might be looking for some new tights to compliment your spring wardrobe. With that in mind you may have noticed the wide range of footless tights on offer from various brands. But how are they different from leggings? And why would you want to choose them over traditional tights? Here we have some great examples of the advantages of footless tights. 


They aren’t just leggings!


Let’s get this one out of the way to begin with. You might wonder what the difference is at first, but really leggings and footless tights are not the same thing at all. Leggings tend to be quite thick and are more bulky than tights. Unlike leggings, footless tights come in a range of different deniers, which means with the warmer weather coming up you can pick a lighter material.

 


 

Bare Foot Walking


Have you heard of the increasingly popular trend of going bare foot in nature? It’s all about getting those shoes and socks off and connecting with the natural world by being bare foot outdoors. It’s scientifically proven to be good for you, and if you grab yourself a pair of footless tights it’s so much easier to simply slip off your shoes when you come to a beautiful beach, some lush green grass, or a calm and inviting stream, than having to wrestle your tights on an off in public. A pair of footless tights will not only compliment your outfit but will allow you an easy way to connect with the healing benefits of nature. Win win!

 


  

You can wear whatever shoes you like


That’s right! Footless tights are extremely versatile and with them you can wear your favourite pair of sandals or open toed shoes without having to go bare legged. Perfect for showing off that new shade of nail varnish you chose at your last pedicure. But they aren’t just great for sandals, they’re actually really practical when it comes to boots too. If you hate that feeling of your tights pulling up around your toes as you slip into your favourite boots then simply pair some footless tights with your most comfy socks. Problem solved! 

 


 


Say goodbye to restricted toes


We’ve all been there, you know that feeling when your toes seem like they are being mangled by the foot of your tights? You can say goodbye to that if you invest in a decent pair of footless tights. Let’s face it, some of us just find socks way more comfortable and there’s no reason why you can’t have the best of both worlds! 





So whether you want to connect to nature by doing some barefoot walking, want to wear your favourite sandals but keep your legs covered, of if you simply don’t want to give up on those snazzy socks you got last Christmas, footless tights could be the answer to your prayers! And no, they aren’t ‘just leggings!’

One size does not fit all!

by Raven Taylor If you google ‘Better Tights’ the first thing that jumps out is this tagline- ‘one size does not fit all’- and that’s what first drew me in. I’m a fan of tights, always have been, I wore them every day during my time working in a busy retail environment, but my experience of this particular item of clothing was never smooth. On a good day I might just have to put up with my tights bunching round the ankles (I’m a relatively short person and every pair of tights I owned seemed to be made for people with long legs) or that uncomfortable feeling of the waist band digging in. On bad days it was the dreaded sagging crotch, resulting in me constantly grasping and tugging at the waist band as my tights slowly slipped lower and lower until I feared I was going to loose them completely and end up waddling around with them round my ankles. Nothing strikes fear into my heart more than seeing a pair of tights (or any clothes for that matter!) marked ‘one size fits ...

The Complete Guide To Opaque Tights

  The Complete Guide To Opaque Tights Opaque tights are some of the absolute best items of leg wear in the world. They are some of the most popular items of hosiery or leg wear too. They are true best sellers, and are every bit as versatile as any sheer tights can be. In fact, we believe they may very well be even more versatile, actually. But what is so special about these garments? What makes opaque tights as great as we say they are? Let’s find out. First Thing Is First, What Is Denier? Denier is a complex measurement, but one that is pretty simple to apply your leg wear. All fabrics have a denier, and very simply, it means the weight of the fabric. The little more complex answer is, it is a measurement of the linear mass density of fibre. It is the mass in grams of the fabric for every 9000 metres of fabric. It is based off the reference point of a strand of silk. A strand of silk weighs 9000 metres long weighs one gram. A strand of Nylon s...

  Taylor Swift uses a classic dancer’s trick to create perfectly smooth, glossy-looking legs on stage on her The Eras Tour and you can copy this hack right here at Tights Tights Tights . Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has become one of the biggest live tours in history, with millions of viewers enjoying her performances night after night. To keep herself looking her best even after spending hours on stage, Taylor employs a secret trick used by professional dancers which keeps her legs comfortable whilst also looking glossy and smooth. This easy hack involves layering two different pairs of tights over the top of each other. The first pair of tights is a sheer glossy skin coloured pair and natural fishnet tights over the top. Taylor Swift always wears two pairs of tights on stage. Double layering the tights not only gives an added layer of modesty (majorly important when you’re performing on stage) but also helps add a little colour back to your legs. This is becau...
