I purchased these tights for my daughter and she loves them! The material is thick and durable, and the stirrup design gives a cute ballet-style look. As a result of my tests, I determined that they also wash well without losing their shape or color. The only downside is that they run a bit SMALL, so be sure to order a size up. Overall I highly recommend these tights for any little girl who loves to dance or needs reliable tights for school or events....
