The Dress Isn't Too Cold for November. Your Tights Are.

You planned the dress, the boots and the coat. Then the walk from the car hit your knees like ice. It wasn't the dress. Sheer tights have nothing inside them.

1. Sheer tights have nothing inside them

A pair of sheer tights is one thin layer doing three jobs: the look, the fit and, in theory, the warmth.

Thin nylon can do the first two. So you get the look, numb knees at the bus stop and, often enough, a ladder up the shin by lunch.

2. Why opaque tights, layering and jeans don't fix it

Thick opaque tights are warmer, but the dress suddenly reads heavy, more uniform than dinner out.

Two pairs at once, or leggings underneath, add bulk and show at the hem and the ankle. So it ends up being jeans until spring, and your style goes on hold for three months.

3. Sheer look outside, fleece inside

Split the jobs between two layers. Call it the two-layer split: a sheer-look outer layer, so from across the room it reads like hosiery.

And soft fleece on the inside, against your legs, so there's something holding warmth on the walk to the car. Because the warm part is inside, the outside doesn't have to turn thick and opaque.

4. What they feel like on

They roll on from the toe like regular tights and feel thicker than nylon, because of the fleece.

The waistband sits under skirts and dresses, and the outfit looks like the one you planned.

5. What they won't do

They're warmer than regular sheer tights because of the fleece, but they aren't jeans or a ski base layer. Up close they read as sheer-look, not true sheer.

Fleece-lined tights have a reputation for riding down, and fit depends on your proportions. Regular is about 90 to 170 lb and Plus about 160 to 280 lb. Tall or between fits? Email hello@jevityrx.com and we'll help you choose. Ease them up a little at a time so the crotch sits where it should.

6. Try it yourself: inside out, then outside

When they arrive, turn one leg inside out and look at the soft fleece running down to the toe. Then put them on, step out the front door for a minute, and feel the difference at your knees.

We're confirming care instructions with the supplier; email hello@jevityrx.com and we'll send them before you order. With two pairs, one is always clean.
