Tights Too Long

[lynbrown]

I am female, 5ft 4inches and size 16. I have noticed lately that my tights seem to be much longer than in the past. I often have several inches dangling from my foot when I take my shoes off. Can anyone recommend a make that are just normal length?

I find Tesco's and M&S are good for length and coverage.

'coverage'? is that square yardage or opacity?

[lynbrown]

Tried them Cloverjo - still the same problem.

Could it be that your legs are simply shrinking with age ?
Maybe you need to go for a walk to stretch your legs.

What size do you get,?

[Cloverjo]

Jom, I meant coverage. Length is usually ok for shorter women, like me. Opacity is good, too.
Lyn, have you tried the smallest size.

[Cloverjo]

Sorry, that didn't help much. I meant to say square yardage in the first sentence of my last post.

Clover.. :-)

Would it be possible & practical for you to cut the toe section off then make the foot smaller with sharp scissors then re-attach the toe part by stitching tightly to avoid laddering & fraying ?
