How to put on tights without getting ladders!
We have all been there: you are not even wearing your tights for an hour (and sometimes it already happens when putting them on), but somehow there is another ladder in! To help you prevent getting ladders in your tights we've got these easy tips!
How to put on your tights:
With these 5 steps you can easily put on your tights and prevent them from getting ladders!
Step 1: Make sure not to wear any jewellery like bracelets, watches or rings.
These can get caught in your tights and create a ladder. Same goes for long or sharp toe nails.
Step 2: roll up one panty leg to the toe-part of your tights
Put the tip of your foot into the rolled up leg and pull tights over heel. Repeat for your other foot.
Step 3: pull up your tights till over your knees.
Step 4: pull up your tights over your hips and waist.
Step 5: enjoy your tights!
Tip: the higher the denier, the thicker your tights! Tights with a lower denier will most likely rip faster than tights with a higher denier. Rather wear tights with a lower denier? Try a bigger size, this way the fabric does not over stretch!
How to organise tights
You can either roll up your tights or neatly fold them, whatever you find more convenient. The most important thing to do to prevent them from laddering is to store them separately. Don't store your tights with other clothes (such as e.g. bras) as they could get caught on hooks or buttons. The best way to store them is separately in a special underwear storage box.
It is also important to wash your tights in a certain way. Want to find out what's the best way to wash your tights?
