Penti Over Knit Patterned Fashion Tights

Keep wearing your favourite skirts and dresses through the colder months with the Penti Over Knit Patterned Fashion Tights. A cosy, textured over-knit pattern gives the leg the look of a fine knitted stocking, so they add warmth and texture at once — in classic black or a coffee-cream that works with camel and cream winter outfits.

Why knitted-look tights

Chunky knitted tights are warm but bulky; sheer patterned tights are pretty but cold. An over-knit pattern sits in between: the raised knit texture is worked into the tight itself, so the leg reads as a cable or rib knit from a distance while staying slim under boots and fitted skirts. The elastic high waistband and control top hold the pattern in line at the waist, and the flexible, durable knit resists laddering — a common weakness of textured tights.

Over-knit vs plain opaque

If you want texture and pattern with your warmth, this is the pair; if you want a plain, solid leg, the Micro 80 or the fleece-lined Thermal Tights are warmer and simpler. All our winter patterns are in the patterned tights collection, and the plain weights in opaque tights.

FAQs

What do you wear knitted-look tights with?

Anything you would wear a wool skirt with: a knitted dress and ankle boots, a corduroy or tweed mini, a pinafore with a roll-neck. Coffee-cream pairs with camel, cream and brown; black with everything else.

Are over-knit tights warm?

They are warmer than a sheer or a 40 denier opaque because the textured knit is denser, but they are not a thermal. For the coldest days, layer them over a sheer or choose a thermal pair.

Which size should I choose?

Tights sizing goes by height and weight: match yours on our size guide. Go up if you are between sizes so the knit texture stays even rather than stretching flat.
