01The length between a short and a tight
One cut in five colourways: a compression tight that ends on the calf rather than the ankle, for the weeks when a full-length pair is too warm and a short is not enough.

A three-quarter tight is bought for one reason and it is not fashion: the full-length pair is too warm from about May, and a compression short leaves the knee and the calf bare under it. This cut stops midway down the calf, which keeps the knee covered through a warm-up and lets the ankle breathe through the session. It is a small shelf, five colourways of one cut, and it stands on its own rather than being a shortened version of the tights two shelves up. The knit is the same 92 per cent polyester. If you own one pair of DRSKIN tights already, this is the second pair most people buy.

Prices are the ones from our last update; the DRSKIN approach updates them on a schedule, and the figure at the till is the one that counts.
03Before you order
Why anyone buys a tight that stops on the calf, where it ends on a leg, and whether it is the full-length pair cut short.
Because from about May the full-length pair is too warm and a compression short leaves the knee bare under it. This cut stops midway down the calf: the knee stays covered through a warm-up and the ankle breathes through the session. It is the second pair most people buy after the full-length tights rather than the first.
Midway down the calf on most adult legs, below the knee and well clear of the ankle. It is a fixed length rather than a proportion, so on a shorter leg it sits closer to the ankle and on a taller one closer to the knee.
The same 92 per cent polyester family, cut on the same last with the leg finished short. It is not a full-length pair with the bottom removed: the hem is finished with its own band so it stays on the calf rather than riding.
