Superdrug 15 Denier Matt Tights - My hosiery review# 1

 Over View:- These tights  are budget ones costing at the time of this  review £6.00 for a box of 5 pairs which = £1.20 per pair.

The online description is somewhat lacking " Superdrug 5 Pack 15 Denier Lycra Tights - Natural M/L"
The box also says" with Lycra fibre and moisturising finish.

My First impressions upon opening the box .

Is that these tights feel very soft and the
shade Natural which is much paler than some other brand, is that that today preferance for ladies? that is the question, although these tights are also available in black. 
The tights are closely knitted and will give good leg coverage.
They come in a card board box with a very modern stylistic drawing   of a ladies pair of  weaing a simple skirt and heels.  with minimul information the back, a size chart which is helpfuland a little more text explaining about how to put them on along with some  care information , they are made in Poland  fomr 85% nylon and 15% lycra. At first glance these tights in my opinion are marketed at the young age group maybe first time wearers of sheer tights.

Putting them on....

This did not present any isses I rolled up the legs of the tights and slid the over my legs, there was enough material mesning that I did not have to pull or yank the legs up my legs thus I did not feel that I was risking a ladder and they felt strong. 

The fit...

 As I bought the XL  size due to my hight, I feel that these do have  enough material on the legs not to have any issues putting them on, if  you have voloumpius calfs then you might run into trouble with these tights as the sizing is linited to only three sizes S/M M/L and XL 
They fitted well around my waist  with only a small amoint of rolling over which is often a problem in you have a slight tummy like I do.
The panty was not overly tight, there was no separetly fitted gusset  ( which is a cost saving on manufacturing) which is often foiund on   "Cheeper" tights.

What do they look like on.

Colour /Shade :-

The Natural shade  of these tights was a little too light inj my opinion and in my opinion more targeted to the "younger" age group who mich want not want to add any colour to their legs greating a more natural look.

Leg Coverage:-

As you can see been 20 denier they offer good leg coverage  everning out the tone of my legs and making them look a lot smother than they are. 

Re-enforced Panty:-

One of the good feature with these tights is that the panty is slight re-enforced  not a boxer brief and not enough to be really  noticed, it is there and it will add a little more strength to the product when you are pulling them up.
