Activskin 869 are the best, but microfiber opaques from silkies.com are very good too.

Asda Ultimate Leg Care Medium Support Tights

posted Monday, 5 November 2007

Danielby Daniel

 

I am always happy to publish contributions from readers of this blog. Here is a guest review from Daniel, for which I am grateful.

 

The Blurb: ‘...To revitalise active leg with gentle tummy control...'

Basic Information:

Cost - £2.50
Denier - 20
Mix - 82% Nylon 18% Lyrca
Features:  Medium Support - Factor 8, treated with aloe vera, cotton gusset, reinforced toe, raised seams
Size Range - Small to X Large

The Review:

Upon opening the packet the first thing which hits you is the smell of the aloe vera - very strong but not off putting, actually quite a pleasant smell! Once you handle these tights their softness is rather apparent, they are so soft in your hand and more than justify the £2.50 price tag in this department. Unfolding the tights reveals a delicate floral pattern around the crotch area which is a nice touch at tights this price.

Asda Medium SupportPutting these tights on the story only gets better. They feel really delicate in your hands and once your hand gets to the supported area the softness is retained throughout. Putting these tights over your legs requires a little bit of patience. These tights are extremely tight and fit like a second skin (I'm not kidding!) Putting these tights on will require a little bit of skill, getting a hold on the material to pull them up isn't easy but it is doable with some patience!

The supported area feels fantastic and doesn't look unsightly either. The remainder of the tights also fit well and cling to the skin real close but without being constricting. They do stretch but you will have to use some gentle persuasion on them, yes they're 20 denier but be careful, sheer tights they still are so they are prone to laddering easily.

Once you have them on, the overall look is highly satisfying. The colour is a lovely shade (I chose a natural colour pair but they come in black also) with the colour distribution even from waist to toe. There is an oh-so-slight shine in the right light which looks very luxurious.

These tights function brilliantly and not only do they provide great support (just the thing for walking around town and being on your feet all day!) they are great for a little extra warmth. Usually for warmth I'll go for something heavier like a 100 cotton rich opaque. They also keep you cool if it's a little warmer! They stay in place extremely well and the waistband sits comfortably on your waist.

To summarise then, these are absolutely fantastic sheer to waist tights which MORE than justify the £2.50 price tag. I would happily pay £10 for these tights. If you are looking for a good support tight than this may just be the pair for you.

This is a great review, Daniel, and I am sorely tempted to pay a visit to Asda on your recommendation. Especially as I like wearing support tights - they ease the pain I get in one of my legs.

Once again, thank you.

I also have to agree and I do not particularly like tights

I know how that feels Geraden, I keep getting these tremors and spasms in my leg and I must admit that these did help with that.
