Ladies: How long do a pair of tights last you?

Scroll to see replies

About a week or two. I always buy cheap crappy ones from Primark and never learn my lesson to go somewhere else and buy a decent pair :/

There's no lesson to learn! I used to think this but I've spent varying amounts of money and it makes no difference.

I usually wear thin skin coloured tights, or sometimes black, 10 denier. They generally last for a few wears, but where mine tend to rip most is at the toes, which is why I go for tights with reinforced toes.

I keep my toenails short, but my tendency to pad around in my stockinged feet, as I hate wearing shoes unless I have to, is the reason why my tights don't last as long as they should!
