I was very wary after reading previous reviews. Thought I'd give it a try for the price so decided to get one for my petite 5 year old daughter. I thought they were too big, she can wear them later with her school uniform. I was pleased when I received the package because they were very soft and not as flimsy as others have said. However, I let my daughter wear them for her birthday. You just showed up. Rating is a good call. The thickness is like pantyhose, but not too thick. After 2 hours of wearing the pantyhose had pimples on the shoelaces, on the knees (which makes no sense because she couldn't crawl) and on the buttocks. I can understand if this happened after intense activity or multiple washes, but 2 hours at a standing birthday party is bullshit. I'm disappointed. I was hoping to find a company to buy tights from... we wear them almost every day.
