Customer Reviews Wolford Naked 8 Tights

I was really excited about these -- unfortunately, they are not 'naked' looking to me because they have a sheen that I personally don't care for. I was expecting a natural, matte look and was disappointed; the shine made my legs look pale from certain angles. I don't like the fabric much either because it snagged the first time I tried them on -- for this price they better last more than one wear! I found the Gobi color to be odd and the fabric was not very stretchy and seemed like they would be stretched out very easily.

These ARE very delicate because they are extremely sheer--that's what the "8 denier" means--so granted they will not be as durable as regular tights. They are the sheerest tights/hose that Wolford makes. They are the only sheer tights I have ever been able to find that are comfortable (waist band doesn't pinch and it hits just below the belly button) and look like you are not wearing anything on your legs (if you find the right color). For me, the gobi is a perfect match for the bare leg look, essential in the summer time. I love Wolford tights in general and at this point have many different styles. Their regular "tights" (the opaque kind) last forever (I still have one in ribbed wool from more than 10 years ago), but these sheers are good for maybe 3 or 4 wears (and that's being careful with them and of course washing by hand) and yes, you could ruin them the first time if you're not careful. So if you need to wear them every day, they are probably not worth it. But for an occasion or just a night out in a dress/skirt when you do not want bare legs, these are perfect. 3 or 4 of them will get me through bare leg season (May through September) when I can go back to wearing regular tights. I find the Wolford sizing chart to be off on these, according to their chart I should be a small but for me the small was a tiny bit too short and the medium is just right (I'm 5"4 and wear a size 8) in pants.

These are called "naked" because you can get them off in a jiffy. If you bend over, down they slip, bend to the side off they go. I'm not really sure why you would keep these, especially for someone who wanted to move around in them. Although I did like the cosmetic color, which allowed me to give them 3 stars for style because it matched my skin tone well. The title includes the word tights which made me think these would be more durable and a pale skin tone color but they are just panty hose. Maybe where they're made they call panty hose tights? Just go to your local drug store and get the cheapest brand of panty hose for much less $$$. I sent them back.

I checked size chart carefully, but these were too short in size S. I would go up a size. I thought they looked a little thick, not nude, compared to others that are $10 cheaper.

I read the chart on sizing carefully. With my height and weight I am a size small according to the chart on sizing. These were too short and I had to return them. I bought them in nude, but it was not the color of my legs. I thought they looked like flesh colored tights, not as sheer as I expected.

I wore these twice and got a huge run in them. They are also incredibly uncomfortable they slide down constantly. Definitely not worth such a high price.
