Limited Colors
Like many businesses just now, we're experiencing a materials shortage, so tights colors are limited. We're searching for a reliable supplier.
If you know a reliable supplier of 11-12oz cotton lycra, we'd love to hear from you.
In the meantime, we thank you for your patience!

Costuming Idea for all you ghouls out there...
Wondering how to cover your legs under all that burlap and gauze you'll be wearing on Hallowe'en? How about tights? Put away your sweat pants and old blue jeans, and try this:
Pick a base color of tights to wear against your skin. Then take a second pair of tights of a different color and, using whatever sharp implements you happen to have handy - scissors, pinking shears, a scalpel or chain saw - make several slashes in the legs (being careful not to cut the seams in back - and please take them off before you start cutting!). Very carefully pull on the second pair over the first, so that the base color shows through the cuts on the top layer!
Different characters might use different color combinations, like these:
- Ghoul - back from the grave. Base color: gray or brown. Top color: black, gray, or hunter green.
- Demon. Base color: red or black. Top color: black or red.
- Slashing victim. Base color: red. Top color: cream. (For extra effect, try hanging gauze soaked in stage blood from a few of the slashes, or "singe" the edges of the cuts with black or red spray paint. Ewwwwwwww!)
- Tiger. Base color: black. Top color: cream. (Use Rit dye for Orange.)
When wearing two pairs of tights like this, be sure to order without the codpiece.
Happy Hallowe'en everyone!
