Tights Gentlemen, Please!
We often get requests for posts and reviews for the UK Tights Blog. One that we get a great deal is a review or list of suggestions for men’s tights. We have recently posted on men’s tights, just a few months ago. It got some pretty positive feedback. So we thought it might be time to expand on it and give you a few more suggestions.
So, On To Tights For Men!
men’s tights, sometimes called mantyhose, aren’t exactly new. It’s been the height of fashion for a couple hundred years for gentlemen to be seen wearing high-quality hose. So it’s not much of a surprise this trend is making a return. Now, you might think men’s tights are probably difficult to get hold of. And people think maybe only a few specialist stores can get them for you. You’d be wrong, it’s not just specialist shops that sell these. UK Tights has sold some of the best quality men’s tights for years, and they sell very well. Even larger stores, like Selfridges are selling mantyhose. Now, department stores can be great for variety. But when those stores charge twice the price as on the internet, the fun can go out of shopping.
Gerbe Tights For Men, At UK Tights!
Well, good news, UK Tights stocks Gerbe men’s tights. These items are from Paris, and are the most professionally made men’s tights in the world. They range from £20 to £35. And, if there’s one brand that makes any kind of hosiery better than the rest, it’s Gerbe! They are just so high quality, whatever they try their hand at turns out great. Gerbe Men’s 100 Denier Opaque Silk Tights are our best selling male product. Gerbe don’t release too many patterns with their fashion tights. But they are renowned for fantastic quality. So it doesn’t surprise us that this product is so popular. It being pure silk might also have something to do with its quality too.
Great Quality And Fantastic Finish
Another item that’s both Winter-ready, and that’s renowned for its comfort, is the 70 Denier Opaque Tights. These tights are nylon based, and are as well-made as their silk counterparts. Definitely a good investment if it’s Winter tights you’re looking for, as nylon is a little more insulated than silk. So, you’ll stay much warmer and fashionable! Then again, if you don’t want to be too snug, the best alternative is the 70 Denier Opaque Footless Tights. No one likes their feet too warm, as they might get clammy. So if you need something for cooler weather, but prefer to keep your toes free, these are for you.
Gerbe Tights For Men Are An Option In Summer, Too
The last Gerbe item is more of a summer feature. So if you live in warmer climes, we’ve got your legs covered. Men’s Satin 20 Denier Tights are exceptionally well-made. They are one of our best selling products. We’d definitely recommend this for comfort, fit, and your wearing pleasure. Well, as men’s tights go, this is it from Gerbe. If you’re are gentlemen interested in trying some top-notch hosiery, Gerbe is definitely a good place to start. The only trouble is, Gerbe tights for men are very nicely made so you might end up spoiling yourself.

Thanks for the coverage of men’s tights. Its really good that there are retailers like UK Tights who recognise that lots of men like wearing tights. I can recommend the Gerbe tights. The Woman Dimension tights are also fantastic, great fit and feel amazing. Lots of tights made for women also fit me well, providing you check the sizing carefully. Charnos and Falke are particularly good quality. Thanks to UK tights, men buying tights for themselves is something that seems to becoming more mainstream and accepted.

Thanks BIll,
Good to hear you found my post interesting and its good to see I’ve written something that someone really appreciates. This post was done by request, so you are welcome to send anything through to me, asking for custom posts on anything related to the blog.
Not to spoil any surprises, but my posts will become a lot more diverse in the next few weeks. A lot more individual product reviews, more “How To” stuff and some interesting stories. I’d like to get readers more involved too, any thoughts?
Thanks again

Thanks. Well i would be happy to become a reviewer for the site if needed and willing to provide a man’s perspective on tights. I just ordered some Kunert tights to see how well they fit.

Sure, you’re are more than welcome to review anything I post here. I’d love to hear reader criticism.
Kunert are an excellent brand, should fit very well, as they’re exceptionally made.
Thanks

Thanks.

Hi evilhomura89,
I might be doing some of these in the near future, actually.
The problem is, we don’t get a lot of new men’s stuff in, but we might be looking at some new designs soon.
I’ll see what I can do for you.

Yes, it would be good to have more blog coverage of men and tights. However, as you say you don’t get a lot of new tights arriving that are specifically for men. Yet, in my experience these so-called men’s tights (apart from Gerbe and WoMan) aren’t really that much better in quality. Sure in some of them you get a fly opening, but if one is careful with sizing then tights made for women are perfectly okay for men and often the fit is amazingly good – I would particularly recommend Falke and Charnos in this respect. The Falke 100 denier matt opaque tights are amazing for cold weather.

Hi, if you need any more male reviews doing, I be happy to do some. I also have done some photos for a well know company which will be published at somepoint.
Thanks,
