Very good quality
These were fantastic. I bought two pairs, one for a formal night out, and one for a casino Halloween party. No tacky thigh line, thick but comfortable and soft. The level of sheerness was perfect. I danced my pretty little bumb off all Halloween, and no runs. Didn't seem to snag easily either. Sizing was accurate.

These tights are the BEST
These are awesome! I have some scarring on my legs and self-conscious about it, and it can be seen through sheer stockings/tights. The opacity of these tights is enough to cover scarring, and they don't look like "grandma" hose. Plus they feel great!The tights have a lovely sheen to them, which was something I was looking for. That's something difficult to find in a pair of hose/tights with a denier above 20. The material is good quality and doesn't run just from putting them on. I bought two different pairs (Natural & Black) and both were accurately depicted in the product photos. I was especially pleased with the "Natural" pair; my skin tone is very fair with pink undertones and these tights didn't look too dark or orange-ish on.The sizing was PERFECT. These don't have a control top (awesome!) and are comfortable to wear, and they don't cut in like other brands. At first I thought they looked too small, but they have some kind of stretchy-yet-not-saggy voodoo magic.I definitely plan on ordering more!For reference: I am 5'4", 170lbs, measuring 45-32-45 and ordered a size 5/XL.

Good fit and not too tight in the waist (UPDATED...)
I was worried that these would be too tight in the waist, but after reviewing the answers to my question, I chose the size 4(L) in Indigo and Natural. I am 5' 6.5" tall and they fit me perfectly and have plenty of stretch in the waist so are not too tight at all. Haven't had them long enough to judge their longevity, but if they last well I will update this post. They are nice and soft with a matte finish. There is a very slight sheen to them if you get in the right light, but for the most part they are matte finish. These are not seamless. They do have a seam across the toes and up the front and back in the crotch area, but they are soft. Like other tights of this type the indigo pair kind of changes colors and opacity depending on the light and how tightly they are stretched over your skin. I have seen other asking about compression. I don't see where these mention they should be compression type. They don't seem to be and that is not what I wanted anyway, so they are fine to me. I am updating my review to take away a star... Although overall they look OK, they do have flaws in the finish that bother me. In some colors it is easier to see than others. You can see it in my photos if you look closely... There are variations in the color (stripes) that show up in certain lighting conditions. The blue color showed it more than the natural, but they are there. The blue ones I purchased also had a small holeright by the sewing in the crotch area that ripped the second time I wore them, so they do have some issues.2ND UPDATE: After my last review, I was contacted by the Sofsy vendor who were very nice and helpful about my review. They shipped out a new pair of the tan tights that I requested and they are perfect. I added three more photos. I can find no imperfections in this pair and am very pleased with the support I was given. I have to add again that I really like the Sofsy waistband because it is not so tight. I added back a star for the great customer support and the fact that the replacement tights seem perfect. Great job... Thanks!3RD Update: Just a sizing note... I am 5' 6" tall and weigh around 140 pounds. I have decided that the Medium size is perfect for me. They have a nice stretch and the large will do, but it is just a little loose. The Medium is better.

Very soft
I like the way they feel on your legs. They are so soft and they are just the right thickness not heavy and not so sheer. They do snag easily so put them on carefully.

Not as pictured
The light mauve color is gorgeous in the photos, unfortunately the tights don't look like that at all.I actually reordered the same pair, thinking that I was mistakenly sent the darker purple color, but that pair was the same dark purple color.The act of opening tights generally destroys the packaging, so I don't have the original package to return them in, which apparently is required to get a refund, so I'm just kind of stuck with two pairs of wildly expensive tights that do not work for what I needed them for, but that's on me for reordering and expecting to get the item in the photos ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

These are the best tights I ever bought
I got several different colors for 14 dollars two years ago and came back to buy more, but got sicker shocked.These are medium thickness 40D tights, so semi sheer/opaque, sheer to waist meaning no control top or darker section at the top, they feel great on my legs and super soft to touch, they are very stretchy and fit well, and given you order the correct size I'm sure they will fit and conform to any size and shape of legs (probably even if you were a size off) but as I said they are very stretchy so probably safer to err a size smaller if you are between sizes. Another thing to be aware of is that these have the double seam on the back which I doen't care for because they can show visible lines depending on what you're wearing.

Size up
I love these tights! I ordered two sizes and kept both. I'm 5'5" 144 lbs size 4-6 in pants. I usually ordered the medium and they fit ok, but the large I ordered is more comfortable. I kept them both in case I got one dirty. The sheerness is like that of the dancer's tights which look like flawless skin. Once it's time to reorder I'll be getting these. Definitely recommend especially for the winter season.

Good Product
I don't particularly understand why this product got some bad reviews, I have been buying them for years and years and so far are still the same good tights of the past, and yes they do cost money but you get it for good quality.If the cleaning guidelines are followed as stated they can last for a long time, but I am obsessed with these type of tights that I keep buying them no matter what. After searching anywhere for good tights these ones have been so far the only good one and still and would never change them for any other type.They are comfy, nice looking tights, at least are as a fact so much better than other on the market, they have good stretch and every colour is perfect.Plus are Italian made tights, which makes them so much better than the ones from uk, the uk ones are not really always comfy.
