Is the control top good in the second one?

For this reason alone, the chaffing, I have not worn stockings in probably over two decades.
But in my community I can wear biker shorts or leggings.
If you must wear stockings, what about knee highs and biker shorts?

I wear the largest size melas with bike shorts (Torrid, size 4) under it.
I’m 400 lbs. Until I found this solution was so painful! So then I have had no issue.
Hope it helps!

Yes!! I also recently switched from Memoi to Esatto! Love their tights and they definitely tear less. Very very comfortable.

Excuse my ignorance.... Biker shorts are like short leggings? I try to wear leggings year round but when it's summer now and simchas/shabbos, I need clear stockings that look more natural...

I weigh just under 300 and melas doesn’t fit me. I’ve been struggling for a year since Berkshire changed how they make their stockings. Can you post exactly what you wear?
I’ve been wearing levante however it falls down. I just found memoi curvy on Amazon which has control top. But the legs are to long and have no support.
I sometimes stay in because I can’t find stockings.

I wear Melas Q1-Q2, with biker shorts from Torrid (size 4) underneath it. It would never work w/o the shorts. The tights are pulled so thin on top that it would hurt like hell otherwise. I’m a 4x (just realized weight isn’t always the best metric as it doesn’t take bone mass/muscle into account) and it works. But believe me, would be impossible without the shorts. I have multiple pairs and use them daily like underwear with everything I wear.

I’m probably a 4 or 5x and couldn’t get it up. I tried the escato as well but again could barely squeeze in to them. I carry the weight around my waist a lot.
You wear the shorts on top of the stockings? Do you dry the shorts?

Under. I wouldn’t be able to get them on on top.

I have stopped wearing stockings because I simply cannot deal with wrestling myself into them, sweating like a maniac in them, and then having burns on my inner thighs. I believe tznius-wise that I should be wearing them, but I just can't deal with it anymore and DH doesn't care so unless I lose a lot of weight, I'm just done.

its interesting. I have the oposite problem. I am overweight (albeit not extremely) but have huge huge thights. I have ALWAYS (even after weightloss or as a teenager when Iw asnt SO overweight) had terible rashes and infections on my inner thighs when I did NOT wear tights. I tried so many things like powder, antiboptical cream, deodorants, silicon gel, etc.
there is just NOW AY I can wear a (maxi) skrt without thick tights. even today I wera 40 or 60 den EVERY DAY. in my community it would be fine to wear socks or knee highs (depending on skirt length) but I cant. after half a day I have terrible pain and red skin on my inner thighs.
I could wear biker shorts. but I feel hotter in cotton biker shorts plus a skirt, than 40 den tights and skirt.
how do you manage without tights?
I wish there was a solution.
the only cosmetic surgery I would ever do is to reduce my inner tights significantly (which when wearing tzniusig clothes one probably would hardly notice). it would be only to end this stupid problem and NOT for beauty reasons.

I was recently reading a Reddit thread about the sexism of men wearing boxers to prevent chafing, while for women we call it chub rub and have this unrealistic standard that there should be this huge thigh gap.

Just to clarify you wear underwear, shorts than stockings? I can’t get stockings on like this!!
I was out trying to get errands done for my family and had to go home because my stockings refuse to stay up!!!!!!!
