This is our second pair of Danskin tights (the first was with a foot) and I am just as happy with this pair as I was with the first. My daughter has used both pairs in her dance class and although we've only had this pair for a few weeks they are holding up great. The first pair is still in top shape after about 8 months. No complaints about the sizing either - they may seem a little short when taken out of the box, but they stretch like tights should and fit her perfectly (she's skinny, average height, 7 years old ).
