How to wear tights and preventing ripped tights

Tights are now a timeless fashion item. An essential accessory in the colder months to wear with oversized dresses and sweaters, tights are an important item of clothing also in the rest of the year, for example during formal events such as church ceremonies or work situations. According to our etiquette, legs should never be shown, except in informal situations during the summer season. Therefore, always having something to wear for every occasion is a must and it is important to know how to avoid having ripped tights. So let's see some of the basic tricks on how to wear tights.

We only buy quality products

A fundamental tip is to buy only quality products, which will ensure us tights that do not stretch and their long life. Tights like Leela's will ensure we have made a purchase which, with due care, will accompany us for some time. On the other hand, the company is an emerging brand completely Made in Italy, specializing in the production of tights, leggings and anti-friction bands for curvy women, which has based its creations on the experience of an established Italian hosiery that designs only technical fabrics. A collection created to ensure high-level products and to enhance the curves of the female body.

Wear the tights with care

The first secret to wearing tights without breaking them is calm, dressing in a hurry and with little care is the fastest way to get ripped tights. Instead, our gestures must be safe, so let's avoid preparing at the last moment for an important occasion or for a simple outing with friends, hurrying will risk making us make some mistakes. Instead, let's try taking a few more minutes to wear our socks. Once the package is opened, let's rely on the seam and the shape of the foot, find the front side and hold the tights with both hands facing forward. At that point we begin to roll them very gently, then just put the tips of the feet and begin to slowly unroll the socks along the legs. During this operation, it will be important to get even left and right, to avoid dangerous tension of the tights. One last tip for tights and how to wear them is to take the fabric between two fingers and try to distribute it so that there are no points where it accumulates too much and points where it is too tight.

Another important advice concerns the choice of size. Many people don't really pay attention to choosing the right size and by doing so they get pulled tights in no time at all. The size must instead be perfect, neither too narrow nor too wide, in order to avoid ripped tights.



Washing the tights is also important: to prevent ripped tights

Tights should be hand washed, but if your life is busy and you have little time to dedicate to hand washing your tights, we recommend using an underwear pouch. It is a practical fine-woven mesh bag in which to place your tights before putting them in the washing machine, in this way you will separate your socks from other garments, preventing the tights from coming into contact with zips or other metal closures that could risk making them stretch.

Another useful tip concerns the use of specific detergents for delicate garments, less aggressive than traditional products for washing in the washing machine. Use a delicate program at 30° and allow the socks to air dry, thus avoiding the use of the dryer. Too high temperatures can damage the yarn of your tights!
