do you gals feel your muscles are more supple and refreshed after wearing tights? i wear "compression tights" for about 10 hours a week for recovery purposes... improves circulation, feel less muscle "throb". wondering if this has been a feminine secret held from men for forgotten decades (centuries?)

I don't think most tights are that tight, honestly. You're right that this is the whole idea behind "support hose", but most tights/stocking aren't that supportive.

yeah, laurel otm

sometimes they can prevent a bit of...bounce? but refreshed? no.

HELP

My brand new tights this morning turned out to be too big forcing me to go to Walgreens and buy some smaller ones which already, just 7 hours later, have a massive run up the back of one leg. Tights are the fucking worst. I am filled with tight hatred today.

And I threw out the too big tights and am now going to have to go through the garbage to see if they're still there because this run is outta control. FUCK YOU TIGHTS.

Am now wearing the garbage tights.

I keep my run and holey ones for non-work purposes because I kinda like that look but yeah, having to always have YET ANOTHER pair of clean, well-fitting, non-run tights on hand is a pain.

Am now wearing the garbage tights.
lol

i wear my tights into the trash but this is next level!

Oh if I wasn't at work I'd totally wear the ones with runs. Sadly I don't think that would fly here. I just really need to find a brand that fits me well. I think if I go down a size the hues might work. We'll see.

I have found the Spanx brand to be relatively non-runny; also DKNY. Hue brand not so good.

i usually buy the 'no-nonsense' brand from grocery store...i am not an expert in this field lol

Fleece-lined tights suggestions? I just ordered a Plush brand on-line.

omg that is a thing? want!!

fleece-lined tights $18

wow

looks like they would be too small for me :/

Once upon a time I bought a lot of socks from sock dreams! They have such nice things, but not all of them would fit over my calves, or the amt of stretch would make them shorter and then they'd dig into my calves and make a line. It was hard to tell which knee socks were wide enough? I think they have more options now.

Although not in ever style obv.

looks like they would be too small for me :/

Redress NYC has fleece lined "Teggings," which are their tights/leggings combo product. I don't love them but that's bc the fit is funky on me. They are v warm, though.

Sock Dreams has a much better selection of socks for larger calves these days and gives really good info on how much things stretch. I've got a bunch of their thigh highs that fit me no problem.

But if anybody finds fleece lined tights in proper plus sizes (to fit over 200 lbs) please let me know.

me too

Plus size fleece lined tights tip:

Berkshire "cozy tights" available to fit up to 5'10", 230 lbs. I'm 5'6" and about 215 and the 3/4x fit me really well. They aren't fleece in the truest sense of the word, but they are warm and fuzzy and I'm quite pleased.
