Great for work! I love Wolford tights and these are a great pair for winter/early spring. Definitely the most comfortable tights I have had, and now I only wear Wolford.

Love these. A few hours into my first wear, I caught my tights with my finger nail and winced, knowing they’d have a tear. I looked down, and they were still flawless! The price is higher than I normally pay, but it looks like I won’t have to replace them nearly so often. Very pleased

These are great except due to the rolls of fat on my body I could use some reinforcement in the tummy area. I need more support and should have purchased the Power Shape tights instead.

I have worn Wolford Velvet De Luxe tights for many years. They're great. Just for the record, I am 5'3", weigh 100 pounds and my medium size tights were too tight. So I purchased the large, and they are perfect for me. LOL! So I suggest sizing up as these do run small. Also, my old ones said 50 denier while the new ones are 66 denier - more opaque and thicker, in a good way.

The fit of these tights is good--I'm 5'0" and got the XS. Very comfortable! I wore these to work almost everyday during the winter time. They go really well with black heels/wedges/flats! These tights are also relatively thick so you don't have to worry about getting any accidental holes. Also, they're a little slippery, like when I am sitting in my chair (normal office chair), I can feel myself slipping off the chair if I lean back too much. It's a little odd for a pair of tights to do that, but it's not a huge deal. Just a little thing I noticed! Other than that, I highly recommend these tights.

Wow! These rights are extremely strong and comfortable. They’re not cheap but boy are they worthwhile.

Everything I had read about these tights is true. They are just the perfect opaque, as soft as silk (matte finish), and so very durable. Perfect!

I’m 5’11” and bought an XL. There’s some extra length in the leg for me, but I worried a L wouldn’t have enough. Material is comfortable and stays up better than most.

I HATE buying and putting on nylons as they always seem to run immediately. A friend recommend I try tights and I'm glad tried these. I'm about 5'5", 167lbs with larger legs. These tights were easy to put and seemed to fit well everywhere. I've only work them once but so far so good.

Perfection. Can't believe how awesome these tights are. Bought them because I had to but now I might actually start wearing more dresses. They're that comfortable.

Yes, these are pricey at the outset, BUT ... if you divide price/# of times worn, they are actually a great deal. These are well made, substantive tights. I am on my feet all day at work and they provide nice support. I wash them by hand and, in general take very good care of them, and they last a long time. I average 1/pr. per year, although the last pair I had lasted for 2 winters. Love these tights.

The quality is absolutely evident. You can feel the difference between these stockings and others when rooting around in the drawer! I read another review that said they feel like velvet, and that's actually kinda true.

These are great tights. Very durable even with little kids crashing into me and stepping on my feet. I am 5ft 6in tall and 163lbs and the medium fit great.

These tights are very comfortable, and so far, very resilient. They are soft, and not too tight, but do not bag; it is hard to find tights that have both of these features.

I've never been a fan of tights but I needed them for a work function. I decided I should go for the best tights available and bought these. They are incredibly comfortable, luxurious and flattering. I've started wearing them all the time and I tell everyone to order them. You can't go wrong with these tights!

After a few wears, I'm really enjoying these tights - the feel is indeed velvety, and despite the sheer look, they seem remarkably strong and resistant to ripping. With such a hefty price tag, I am hoping they last a year or two at least. These are not really super cold-weather tights - the sheerness looks great but does little to keep out the cold.

They truly feel like velvet. And Admiral is a great shade of midnight blue. Can't go wrong with the quality and fit of these tights.

Worth the splurge! I got the "anthracite" which is a true medium-dark grey. Opaque. 5'6" and around 145-150, and the medium fit well. Would like a wider waist band.

Bought this pair of tights because it was recommended by the sweet home. It's the best pair of tights I've ever owned. It provided warmth, didn't tear when I tugged and pulled at it to put it on and the waist band is so comfortable while maintaining shape. Highly recommended.

These are great quality. They run true to size. They are luxuriously soft. I was worried that the small would not fit, but I followed their sizing chart and they fit perfectly. I am delighted with the anthracite color and cannot wait to have more in other colors! Thanks, so much, for the super fast shipping, too!

So after years of wearing slightly itchy, marginally-okay tights in the winter, I finally bit the bullet and purchased a pair of Wolfords. I've been hearing/reading about this brand of tights/lingerie forever but could never justify the price. They're easily double or triple the price of other brands (HUE, Spanx, WeLoveColors) and I just never thought it would be worth it. OKAY IT'S WORTH IT. I'M A CONVERT. So comfortable I let out an audible "ahhhh" when I slipped them on for the first time. I'm never going back. Perfect look, perfect fit (I got the Medium and I'm 5'10", 145). My old go-to brand was WeLoveColors which is still good and way cheaper, but these Wolfords are very special. Hate HUE. Hate Spanx. DO IT BUY IT.

Smooth and soft! So far, these tights are holding up extremely well. I wear mine 2 times each week, throw in the washer in a mesh bag, and line dry. Perfect warmth for working in my home basement office where the floor is cold. I just wish there were better colors than black, something that looked more like office business dress nylons.
