Tights are in the wardrobe of any modern woman and children of both sexes of preschool age. Products of this category are worn for the sake of warmth in the cold season, and exclusively for beauty and "decency" - in the warm season. When choosing tights, sizes are not always easy to understand “by eye”. Tables from different manufacturers differ in their parameters, and the marking itself is often expressed in letters or numbers. How to learn to read all these symbols correctly?
Subtleties of choice
Learning to choose the right tights size is very important. Products in this category, as well as underwear, cannot be returned or exchanged. Most manufacturers produce tights in sealed individual packaging. Accordingly, when choosing, the buyer does not have the opportunity to deploy the product and evaluate its size visually. You have to rely only on the labeling and not always clear size matching tables shown on the packaging. How to choose tights? Leg sizes are easy to remember.
Women's nylon tights
Dimensional grid of thin elastic tights forwomen suggests differences for neighboring positions in terms of height and fullness of the model's figure. The most common digital marking is from 1 to 5. But what do such sizes of women's tights mean, and how to find your number? Unit (1) - products intended for the fair sex, up to 160 cm tall and weighing up to 50 kg. Women whose height is 160-170 cm and weight less than 70 kg should choose tights of the second size. "Three" (3) - products for ladies weighing no more than 75 kg and having a height of up to 175 cm. The fourth size is for women weighing up to 85 kg and less than 185 cm tall. "Five" is Plus Size. But how to choose the right product for those whose parameters are on the border of two descriptive parameters? Tights, the sizes of which are expressed in numbers, should not be taken with a large margin. If your weight is 75-76 kilograms, and your height is 173 cm, try the third size, the fourth most likely will not fit very well and will be large.
Letter sizes
Today, women's tights can also be found on sale, the sizes of which are expressed in letters in the manner of European clothing markings. It is easy to remember the real measurements of such products, focusing on the digital system that is classic for Russia. The correct correspondence between the sizes of the two markings is as follows: 1 - XS, 2 - S, 3 - M, 4 - L, 5 - XL. Self-respecting manufacturers of tights must place special tables for determining sizes on the packaging of the product. Consider the fact that the more lycra in the composition of the product, the stronger it stretches. Some super elastic tights can even be taken to sizesmaller if your measurements are in close proximity to the larger starting bar.
Tights for kids
Choosing tights for a child is much more difficult than for an adult, because children are constantly growing, especially at an early age. Two systems are used to indicate the size of children's clothing: by age and by height. The second is much more convenient and reliable, because all babies grow differently. Another child at three years old corresponds to the parameters of two years, and the other, on the contrary, at 4 years old wears a size intended for six-year-olds. Modern manufacturers offer tights for children from 3 months and 6-7 years. The smallest size: 62-68 (respectively, in cm, according to height), and the largest - 116-122. There are complex tables to help determine the desired marking, which take into account indicators such as foot length and chest circumference. In fact, in our country, the most common sizes of children's tights, expressed in height (cm), and therefore for the right choice it is enough to measure the child before going to the store.
