Semi-transparent 40 den tights knitted straight through with no reinforced brief, under a wide waistband that sits wherever you put it — low-rise, natural waist or high.
Highlights
✓
Conte lists these as having "no panty part" — there is no separately knitted brief section, so the 40 den fabric runs the full length without a denser panel and its edge across the top of the thigh.
✓
One wide elasticated waistband instead of a fixed rise, which is what makes the height adjustable. Conte does not publish how deep that band is, so if you are buying these specifically to sit under a low waistband, ask us first.
✓
Cotton gusset, reinforced toe and flat seam — all three specified, which is more construction detail than plain sheer hosiery listings usually give you.
✓
82% polyamide, 18% elastane. Conte describes the fabric as treated with vitamin E microcapsules and does not say what that treatment is for, so neither will we.
✓
Stocked only in Conte sizes 2, 3 and 4 — sold here as S, M and L. There is no XL, and the height-and-weight grid those numbers actually refer to is not published on this listing, so the letters are the only guide you get.
This is the plain version of the Conte 40 den tight: same denier as the Active Soft 40 Den, without that pair's denser shorts panel, and with an adjustable waistband in its place. If you want the identical construction sheerer, Conte Top Soft 20 Den Tights is the same style at 20 den, with a Beige added to the colour range. Conte Dress Code 40 Den Tights is the third 40 den option, aimed at a handbag-sized pack rather than an adjustable waist.
Six colours: Nero Black, Graphite, Natural Nude, Shade, Bronze Tan and Mocca Brown. Conte publishes no shade description or swatch reference for any of them. Browse the rest of the hosiery collection, currently only three products deep, or the wider women's department.
