Behind the Design

We design base goods with intention: fabrics chosen for stretch and recovery, waistbands built to stay put, a fit that’s in it for the long haul, and style worked into the silhouette. Comfort isn’t an afterthought; it’s the blueprint.

Our job is simple: make better basics we believe in - and reach for on repeat. We test, edit, refine, and refine again so the things closest to your skin feel like they were designed for a body that bends and moves.

Wade + Belle is building a wardrobe of close-to-the-skin essentials: tights, socks, and whatever comes next. Modern, intuitive, fashion-forward pieces that earn their place in your rotation.

Behind the Brand

With over 15 years in the women’s apparel space, my journey here is rooted in a deep love for fashion and design. When a lovely member of my community, 1/2 of the Wade + Belle founding sister duo, offered the chance to carry on this brand’s legacy, I knew it was a unique opportunity to combine my passion and background.

as a base layer enthusiast (a byproduct of my indie sleaze roots) and a dance mom too familiar with the drama of uncomfortable tights, Hosiery has always had a key presence in my world. I’m excited to bring fresh ideas and new offerings to the table while ensuring that the quality, comfort, and style you’ve come to love remain at the heart of everything we do.

To our loyal customers, thank you for your continued support—I’m committed to maintaining the integrity of this brand and celebrating its heritage. To new friends, welcome! I can’t wait to share what’s in store for the future.

Here’s to celebrating all the ways tights can make us feel confident, comfortable, and stylish.

with so much love, Christina
