Pretty Polly Eco-Wear 40 Denier Opaque Tights are black tights with a lighter opaque look than a heavier winter style. They come in Small/Medium, Medium/Large and Extra Large, giving a straightforward size choice for everyday wear.
The fabric is 91% polyamide and 9% elastane, with flat seams, a cotton gusset and a soft feel. The 40 denier appearance gives coverage without the heavier finish of a 70 denier tight, which makes this a useful middle-ground option. They are made in Italy.
Pretty Polly states that more than 90% of the tights is polyamide, and that polyamide element is designed to biodegrade within three years when correctly disposed of in landfill. The elastane part is not biodegradable.
Choose these when you want black tights that feel softer and lighter than a heavy opaque but still give a neat everyday finish.
