Knee-highs
Knee-highs end just below the knee. They are worn under trousers instead of tights, as they do not constrict the waist and are more comfortable for a full day in the office, as well as with knee-length dresses in autumn.
The comfort is determined by the top elastic band. If it's too narrow and strong, it will leave a mark on the calf and can be constricting – look for models with a wide, soft elastic band or a comfort-finish without elastic. This is the most important parameter if you are prone to swelling.
Knee-highs are divided into sheer, measured in DEN, and knitted from cotton, wool, or bamboo. Sheer ones replace tights under trousers; thicker ones serve as socks with a longer shaft and work well in winter with boots, as they do not slide down to the ankle.
The collection includes plain, microfiber, and patterned models, for women and men, in universal and numbered sizes. Wash sheer ones in a bag at 30 degrees to prevent them from snagging on zippers and Velcro. Shipping in 1-2 business days, free delivery from PLN 199, returns within 14 days.
