Collants semi-opaques 50 deniers

Denier measures how thick the yarn in your tights is. The higher the number, the thicker and more opaque they'll be, and at 50 denier you're right at the point where sheer tips into opaque, so expect a good, even layer of coverage rather than a more see-through look. It's a solid middle ground, thicker than 30 denier but lighter than a fully opaque 80 or 120 denier.

50 denier tights aren't see-through, but they're not fully opaque either. They sit in between as semi-opaque, so you get a good even layer of coverage with just a hint of your skin tone coming through, more noticeable in lighter colours than in black. If you want zero skin tone showing, 80 or 120 denier will get you there.

50 denier tights are warmer than a sheer pair, but they're better suited to autumn and milder winter days than the depths of a cold snap. They give your legs a proper layer without feeling heavy, so they're a good in-between option as the seasons change. For real cold, 80 or 120 denier will keep you warmer.

Yes, 50 denier tights are a great option for the office. They give you smart, even coverage that works well with dresses, skirts or trousers, without feeling too heavy for a full day at your desk. They're a step up from sheer tights if you want something that reads a bit more polished for work.

No tights are completely ladder proof, but 50 denier is more resistant than a lighter sheer pair simply because the yarn is thicker. Our 50 denier tights are knitted using techniques designed to resist laddering, meaning they're built to survive many wears.
