I also just got these on sale at gap:<br /> <a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=8477930020010&#038;cid=65899&#038;locale=en_US" rel="nofollow">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....cale=en_US</a><br /> Good weight, very soft and comfortable.<br /> These are great tights for my DD and probably great for women too:<br /> <a href="http://www.hannaandersson.com/style.asp?from=SC" rel="nofollow">http://www.hannaandersson.com/style.asp?from=SC</a>|1|5|32|149|7||&amp;simg=35874_97E<br /> I stick with Hue super opaque control tops. Spanx two timing tights are good too as they are reversible which means double layer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ponte-knit-di-roma-durable-thick-stocking-recs#post-417367 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 22:27:44 +0000 cyan45 417367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>many thanks to both! </p> <p>inge, i love the macys leggings, will check out soon (with gift card in hand, of course)</p> <p>jenava, my favorite thick tights were Hue too! i LOVED them. too much, in fact, that they developed major heel holes </p> <p>where did you purchase your smartwool tights? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ponte-knit-di-roma-durable-thick-stocking-recs#post-417353 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 22:16:28 +0000 Jenava 417353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I am no help - I wear Hue leggings. I do have a pair of thick double-knit riding pants that are quite fitted that I wear as leggings, but they are several years old.</p> <p>I wear the Nordstrom brand of tights - they're not wool. But they are cheap and easily replaced!</p> <p>Last year I bought some smartwool tights for the coldest part of the year. I liked them pretty well. they did bag out after two wears or so, but they were mighty warm. Others might find them a little scratchy, but I was happy to be warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ponte-knit-di-roma-durable-thick-stocking-recs#post-417320 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 21:39:29 +0000 Inge 417320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Autumn is definitely around the corner, yay!-)</p> <p>I recently added some links to ponte di roma leggings in this thread, perhaps that will help?<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-casual-dresses-on-a-budget" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....n-a-budget</a></p> <p>Not sure where to find the best wool tights, I'm sure someone else will chime in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ponte-knit-di-roma-durable-thick-stocking-recs#post-417189 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 19:11:32 +0000 cyan45 417189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hi all,</p> <p>i knew fall had arrived when i spotted shelves of thicker tights at marshall's last week. yay!!!</p> <p>sadly, many of my wool tights developed huge heel holes last year, so i made do by double layering. now that a year has passed, i want to shop smarter and purchase warm leg wear that will go the distance.</p> <p>specifically, i am looking for:<br /> 1) ponte di roma (or quality equivalent) leggings to wear with skirts/dresses + knee high boots</p> <p>2) thick, wool tights (solid and patterned) to wear with knee high boots, low heel dress shoes.</p> <p>any tips? i am aiming for something that achieves a sleek, slim look (no bulging knees w/ extra fabric). </p> <p>you help is greatly appreciated </p> <p>brand names, stores and/or personal experience stories would be great as well.</p> <p>thanks!!! </p>
