Product Insights
The Spanx Black Body-Shaping Tights ($52 CAD) deliver medium compression that rivals dedicated shapewear, with a seamless non-rolling waistband that stays up without pinching. Sizing options A–D (0–14) require a tradeoff: size up for easier donning and comfort, size down for firmer shaping; first-time donning is difficult but eases after two wears. A cotton gusset eliminates VPL and makes underwear optional. Buyers report shape retention for up to five years, durability exceeding a year with wear at the heels rather than running, and tummy and thigh shaping comparable to purpose-built shapewear. For optimal fit, some size up and lock the waistband under a bra strap to prevent rolling. Care includes hand washing and air drying to extend life. At half the price of comparable Wolford tights, these tights serve office, winter, and casual wear, replacing traditional shapewear and panty lines. Only the black colorway is accurate; red appears orange.

Unfortunately they dig
Not sure if this is an older product of Spanx, but I was looking for something that wouldn't dig, and thought these Spanx tights would do the trick, but they don't. Of course I expect a little, and these do fit TTS, but I'm not sure if we will ever find tights that don't dig.

Perfect fit and very Comfy
Bought 2 pairs to replace a pair that I had for years. Excellent quality and fit.
Si je pouvais, j’apposerais 10 étoiles
Excellent produit. Souvent, je trouve que les collants de manière générale ne sont pas suffisamment gainants au niveau des cuisses et sont trop courts pour moi, ce qui fait que je suis toujours en train de les remonter. Avec ce collant Spanx, je suis parfaitement à l’aise et il est magnifiquement gainant. Je n’ai pas trouvé qu’il était du tout trop serré à la taille. J’ai pris la taille C (je pèse 155 lbs, et je mesure 5’8), qui était parfaite.
