Textured and opaque tights

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

you can try Hue brand at Macy's. last year I got some textured ones at Talbots of all places.

member · Hermes

I haven't actually went and looked yet, but I would try: Target, Kohl's, Nordies ( a lot of the textured tights I've seen in the Mags are by Hue and Nordies carries those), Gap, and BR.

Just wanted to chime in and say what a big fan I am of Hue! I think most major department stores sell them.

Hermes

I have ordered from Alex Blake online for before: http://www.alexblake.com/alexblake/browse/type/Tights.html

you may also want to search using key word hosiery, as tights, socks, panyhose, etc. are all classified as hosiery. You can look in the hosiery section of Nordstom for tights as well.

Lilykind · Hermes

Hue has the best variety, but as far as thickeness goes I really only like their sweater tights.

Nordstroms makes the best plain opaque tights as far as department store brands go.

Also, if you are in a colder climate, you should look at skaters tights. Danskin makes really comfy (no I'm totally serious) and warm ones. Just don't get anything in 'suntan' or 'light suntan'.

If you're willing to part with your firstborn (or your life savings) Wolford makes the best tights ever.

cc · Marc Jacobs

Most department stores have good selections.

I get most of my tights at places like TJ Maxx and Filene's Basement because I tend to go through them quickly. I'm rarely in Target but I've been impressed with their selection. I got a few pairs of textured tights there last year.

Hue, makes great textured tights and lots of colors for about $12. Check out nordstrom for the brand.

HTH!
