Which tights do you buy for your DDs? I have found that so many companies of tights fall down during the school day? Any recommendations on which brand will stay up?! Looking forward to hearing what works for your DD.

My DD has very skinny legs and spent a lot of $ on diff companies trying to figure out which one hugs the feet the most. I found that butterfly school collection and memoi r the best. Memoi is more comfortable but tears quicker and runs smaller. In the butterfly she's an 8-10 and memoi she's 10-12. I do though prefer the memoi slightly more over the butterfly is lays nicer on the foot maybe cuz it's a drop thinner

The condors are absolutely THE BEST!!! I was dreading this season cuz I didn't wanna dress my dd in tights. I imagined her skinny legs looking so shlumpy etc. Everybody recommended condor and I couldn´t be happier! They aren't cheap but worth the price... They don't tear, are cozy and comfy!

If the legs are skinny, can one run a line of machine stitching at the back of the leg, vertically, to make it fit more snugly? The seam allowance would be inside. Would that itch?

Oh ok.
A very long time ago I had a pair of seamed tights, and they did not itch. But they were manufactured that way.
I would have felt it, if it had been itchy.
Why not microfiber? Isn't that just another kind of polyester?
I love my black fleece tights for cold. Cozy.

Depends on the kid. I get microfiber tights from www.frenchtoast.com. I have one girl who lives in them and another one who hates them.

Another vote for Condor. I have one pair in an odd color that no other company makes. They're a fortune -almost $14 a pair in the bigger sizes.
Maybe you can get them cheaper online. The quality is excellent.

And I DREAD the condors. Bought them once cause that was all the rage, but was really dissapointed. The crocth sagged down to the knees!! Dd was forever fixing herself in the street. I guess every child is built differently.
I loved the carlinos but are hard to find. Now im happy with the memois but they run big. Dd is usualy a 6-8 and she is wearing the memoi size 4.

I buy great tights at www.kidsfashionbrokers.com, as I prefer cotton tights. They used to sell MP in both cotton and wool versions. MP is terrific and can outlast two girls, but pretty pricey. I have not figured out the best store to carry them now. The new brand KFB carries is also good (though I don't know how long it lasts).

If you have the money, check out Hannah Anderson. Zillions of fun patterns, great solids, and they are incredibly well made. They launder beautifully, and you will be passing them down to younger kids.
