Tights Up was invented by our Chief Dreamer, Tia! While traveling and sight seeing in London with her hubby and good friends, wearing a pair of her new "cozy tights", she soon discovered that she could not focus on the beautiful city...because she was PULLING UP HER TIGHTS THE WHOLE TIME! That was the day she began the brainstorming process. After many months of elastic and clasp testing, quality control, and great advise from friends and family...Tights Up was born! With its non-slip inner lining gel, it will grip to any tights, leggings, or trouser...and keep them in place! No belt loops necessary! Although Tights Up was designed to keep up tights, our fans have discovered many great uses for it. They are loving the fact that the clasp is so flat that it creates an instant slimming effect under tight fitting tops...no more belt buckle bulge. They are wearing Tights Up with jeans to keep them in place also! The fact that it is fully adjustable is also great for those fluctuating in weight. Tights Up is metal free which is great for those with metal allergies, and getting through security checkpoints! Our fans are quite diverse...athletes, pregnant women, students in uniforms, nurses, moms, grandmothers, and even men are enjoying the benefits!
