17 Pairs Of Black Tights That Will Save You This Winter

For those of us who refuse to let go of our skirts and shorts, even in the dead of winter, thick hosiery is the holy grail. And, even if you swear by pants-only during the colder months, popping a pair of tights on underneath is a ten-second lifesaver on those days it's just too chilly to handle.

Since they're our second skin during the months we'd prefer to hibernate, it makes sense that we're constantly in search of the best pair on the market. We need a pair of tights that's durable, thick, hopefully will last more than three wears without getting a run, and most importantly, warm. Thankfully, brands are keeping up and coming out with more heat technology options than we can handle (you're still our OG though, Uniqlo). Ahead are 17 pairs of tights that will get you through the worst weather this year. We recommend stocking up — it's only a matter of time until Snowpocalypse 2020 comes a-blowin'.
