Brilliant bargains on "bright tights for bold boys"

When I reviewed Slugs & Snails tights for boys I was extremely impressed with their tights and just had to buy some more tights to keep little man’s legs and tootsies warm.  I think Slugs & Snails’ tights are extremely high quality and in my opinion their funky tights are amazing value for money.   As their tights are very comfy for little man to wear and I know he is kept warm by wearing them I decided that some of Slugs & Snails’ “bright tights for bold boys” were an essential buy ready for the cold winter months ahead.

When I visited the Slugs & Snails website to get little man some more funky tights to strut his stuff in I was delighted to see that they currently have a bargain bonanza sale on.  As they are launching their new collection this Autumn with 5 fabulous new designs and an extra size available they need to make space and are offering people a massive discount to clear some of their existing stock.  Reading about their sale I was very impressed about the reason why they were offering customers a brilliant discount on their tights.  Slugs & Snails’ high quality motto means that they have not sold tights to their customers unless everything was perfect; as such they were left with stock of perfect tights with not so perfect anti-slip print which has gone a little wonky or not 100% complete. 

To make room for their new stock and clear the extra stock of perfect tights with misprinted anti-slip soles Slugs & Snails are offering customers the chance to buy their seconds tights at a discounted price in their Summer Seconds Sale.

For a limited time until their limited stock runs out you can buy perfect tights with misprinted soles for only €5.00 giving customers a whopping €7.99 discount!!  The only defect is the print on the soles of the tights with the rest of the tights being perfect and up to Slugs & Snails’ usual high standard and excellent quality.

As we reviewed the Out Of This World design I wanted to get another design and decided to get Spooked and Ahoy.   The designs are groovy and little man looks lovely wearing them; I’m sure I will be sharing pictures of him in the future in his bold tights.  After reading about the Summer Seconds Sale stock I had expected the sole to be terrible with hardly any anti-slip text if at all but when the tights arrived I was very surprised how good the soles looked with only a slight fraction of the anti-slip text having not been printed.  I think it speaks volumes to Slugs & Snails’ high standard that if I had not know they were considered ‘seconds’ tights I don’t think I would have noticed.  Obviously the defect on the tights will vary with each pair and caution must be taken when your little boy is running around like a loony (or is only little man whose a little loony?) as the anti-slip soles may not be as effective depending on the degree of imperfection.  In my opinion this is a brilliant price for wonderful, funky tights for little boys and a slight flaw does not detract from how lovely the tights are……in fact I may just have to buy some more of their tights from the Summer Seconds Sale before all of the stock is snapped up!!

I can confirm that their tights are lovely and little man loves wearing them.  They are very soft and comfy for him to wear and I think he looks adorable in them.  We recently went on a walk and little man was wearing his Out Of This World tights with his wellies that have a matching space theme. 


If you want to get some gorgeous tights for your little boy/s at a bargain price from their Seconds Summer Sale head over to their online shop and get buying the design or designs you want from the Store Seconds options.  You can also buy their tights at full price for perfect tights with perfect anti-slip soles.

As well as being excited about their Summer Seconds Sale and having a big urge to buy more tights for little man I am very excited about their new collection with 5 new designs being added to their range of tights.  I love all of the designs with the “Ivor Spider” and “Fun Guy” being my favourites and top of my wish list to buy when the new stock is launched.

    1. That's great! I was just thinking of heading over to their site and ordering more before they sell out and seeing your comment makes me want to buy more even more than my mild contemplation earlier to do so :)

    1. Thank you. I do think the majority of the UK have a huge issue with boys wearing tights with most people considering it weird to do so. Bug still wears his tights now and they are particularly useful over the colder months.
