Full details
These DIM Velvety Opaque Tights in Black are designed for adult females seeking a comfortable and shaping legwear option. The key benefit is a perfect fit without tightness, thanks to a new comfortable waistband. A potential caveat is that while velvety, the 50 denier offers opacity suitable for everyday wear but may not be sufficient for extreme cold. The product features a velvety opaque finish, a comfortable waistband for a secure fit, and is made in France. Its 50 denier construction provides a smooth, even coverage.

FAQs
What does 50 denier mean?
Denier (D) is a unit of measurement for the thickness of a fabric's thread. A higher denier number indicates a thicker, more opaque, and generally more durable fabric. 50 denier is considered a standard thickness for opaque tights, offering good coverage.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing guide provided by DIM, usually based on height and weight. The comfortable waistband is designed to offer a flexible fit, but choosing the correct size is crucial for optimal comfort and appearance.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
The 50 denier offers opacity and some warmth, making them suitable for mild to cool weather. For very cold temperatures, you might consider wearing them with additional layers or choosing a higher denier tight.
Are these tights machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash these tights in cool water to preserve their delicate texture and elasticity. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 mean?
This certification means the textile product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore safe for human health. It is an independent label ensuring product safety.
How do I care for the velvety texture?
To maintain the velvety finish, avoid harsh washing or drying methods. Hand washing gently and air drying flat will help preserve the soft texture.
Troubleshooting
Tights feel too tight at the waistband
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The comfortable waistband is designed for a gentle fit, but incorrect sizing can still cause discomfort. Try adjusting the position of the waistband.
Tights snagged or developed a small pull
Handle with care. Avoid contact with sharp objects. Minor snags may not affect the overall appearance significantly due to the opaque nature, but significant pulls may require replacement.
Uneven color or texture
This is uncommon for a new product. If present, check the care label for washing instructions and try a gentle hand wash. If the issue persists, consider if the product may have been damaged during handling.
