Looking for tights online

Cedar

(Is "tights" the right word? There's something kind of juveile about it, but "nylons" isn't appropriate, since I'm not looking for something made out of nylon)

I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation for good quality tights/legwear online. I'm on a bit of a budget, so price is a consideration ($25 is probably the most I'd pay for wool, and even that's a bit high. For cotton, I hope to pay $15 or less). I'm not too concerned about having a huge variety of colors, patterns, etc.

Any good places?

Cedar, if there is a Target near you, they have some some of my favorite tights. The Spanx line for Target (I think they're called Assets) has great tights. I have plain black, patterned black, and brown. The control top smoothes everything out nicely, but it's very comfortable, they don't roll down at the waist (a pet peeve of mine), and mine have held up really well. I like them much better than "real" Spanx tights I've owned which cost much more. You can also order them online:

Hope you find what you're looking for! :o)

Does it have to be online? You're in Seattle, right? I saw a good selection at Nordstrom Rack.

http://www.welovecolors.com looks interesting. Big selection but I'm not sure if the quality is great.

Check out http://www.sockdreams.com. Haven't bought anything there, but heard of it often.

I've ordered from We Love Colors in the past and have been happy with their tights.

I'll second the nomination for sockdreams.com. I received my first order from them recently, and it was all super-fab.

Thanks for the tips, all. I'm going to check out those sites.

Marianne--I do in fact live in Seattle. The reason I was looking for an online store is because I was interested in a place that deals primarily in leg/footwear. I've bought some tights at Nordstrom before, and I felt that I seriously overpaid for items that weren't of great quality. I figure a place that does only socks, nylons, etc would probably be a better value for my money.

I'm looking for wool tights, too and I found these:

http://www.warmlegwear.com/tig.....rod_4.html

I don't have any experiences with that brand or store, but the price is good. I am looking for tights to layer under pants/jeans for some extra warmth and those look snug.
