Re: DKNY Tights:What style?

>Are they really stretchy? Are they very opaque? I am looking for tights>that are soft and stretchy (microfibre) that are very comfortable and VERY opaque.>I do not want shiny tights. What EXACT (actual name on the package) style of DKNY tights (or any other brands) do you all recommend? I live in So. California. What stores can I find them at? What sizes/colors (more than just black) are >available? Thanks very much-Peter

--Hi Peter;DKNY brand hosiery names change seasonally.  From one year to the next, there could be complete name changes with no sign of what the previous one was.  The DKNY website is void of detail, unfortunately.  I have one pair made of microfibre that are not shiny, and reasonably opaque.  But I got these about 4 years ago (I don't wear them often, in hopes of making them last longer), so most likely they've been replaced with a different name and/or line.  If memory serves me right, they were called "Microfiber Tight".  At one point in time, I actually saved the original packaging (hey, I wonder if you could get much for an unused discontinued pair of DKNY tights mint-in-box on an eBay auction?).  I'll see if I happen to have these particular ones and let you know what name and model# was used.

In the meantime, Depon is right--there is a style called "Super Opaque" which are basically not shiny (they could pass for men's dress socks).  They looked to me like a basic, so DKNY should still have them.  Your best bet is to go to Macy's, Lord&Taylor, Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, etc., and see for yourself...
