Things you didn’t know you needed!

I don’t often go to the shops because I absolutely hate shopping, especially for clothes and shoes. But every now and then needs must of course. So the other day I was in Marks and Spencer to get some new clothes for the girls, and I happened to walk through the tights section. And there I saw these – ‘energising tights’!
Well, who knew there was such a thing? And do they work? Do they just energise your legs or the whole of you? Does it just mean they are extra tight?
So many questions… I suppose there’s only one way to find out really, unless anyone here knows?

@Fleura They pretend that the tight, compressive nature of the stocking provides a "massaging" effect that improves blood circulation to the lower extremities. Well, I remember that the doctor told to me that wearing socks that are too tight can negatively impact circulation, leading to heavy legs and swelling. I think that doctor's opinion is more reliable.

I love tights. I had to buy some new ones recently. I bought some that has fleece inside of them.

Yes, they are probably quite firm and support your legs. You could try a pair and see.
