Last week, Kendall Jenner demonstrated a very important style lesson: You don’t have to fully cover up your legs during winter if they’re sheathed in a secure and high-quality pair of sheer tights. On a Feb 7. night out in New York, Jenner’s leggy look was powered by a pair of $40 Commando leggings — specifically the brand’s The Essential Sheer Tights. While many of her outfit choices are simply unattainable for the common folk, this is one way you can get closer to emulating Jenner’s effortlessly chic style while also investing in an item that will be your trusty companion throughout all seasons of dressing.

Commando’s The Essential Sheer Tights come in four colorways (Jenner’s classic black is selling out of sizes as we speak) and guarantee that you will leave all your pesky, tights-related problems — like holes and tears that develop at the most inopportune of moments — in the past. Made in a nylon and elastane blend with fusion technology that boosts their resilience and durability, the tights are not only soft themselves but also smooth your legs.

Particularly worthy of a mention is their high, body-contouring waistband. It makes the tights double as shapewear while also being dig-free, because we all know how uncomfortable and constraining a waistband can feel if it’s not manufactured with care and attention.

For the illusion of naked legs, we recommend you to grab The Essential Sheer Tights in Caramel, Light Nude, or Medium Nude, depending on your skin tone. To replicate Jenner’s urban sophistication (we seriously can’t get over how stellar she looked that night), go with a darker shade option.

Commando is a female-founded brand that started its journey in 2005, with raw-cut undergarments that were meant to mimic the feeling of “going commando,” so to speak. Since then, it’s absolutely blown up in popularity and is considered a top choice for many runway designers and stylists to the stars. Notably, all of Commando’s offerings — which presently include everything from women’s intimates to men’s microfiber tops — go through a rigorous fitting process that ensures they feel good on all bodies.

With today’s sheer dressing trend that won’t slow down, it’s no surprise that many celebrities have jumped on the Commando bandwagon. Besides Jenner, of course, its dedicated fan base includes A-listers like Lady Gaga, Olivia Wilde, Gigi Hadid, and Rihanna. As for the latest wearer of Commando’s sheer tights, she’s also been spotted wearing the brand’s leggings during a wintry getaway last month. Offered in a wide range of styles and materials, from a metallic-looking Italian microfiber blend to a glossy faux patent leather, the leggings are pricier than the tights but are so well-made that they just might convince you to wear loungewear into perpetuity.

Not seeing Jenner’s preferred Commando tights in the size and hue you prefer? There’s way more where that came from, in the form of Commando’s Sexy Sheer Tights, Chic Dot Sheer Tights, and other styles made for turning some heads during nights on the town. An outfit staple like this is practically begging to be invited into your wardrobe. Let it in, and watch as you magically acquire supermodel-like legs.
