We're Back on FOX 5 DC! Melanin Fleece Tights on The Marissa Mitchell Show!

We're back on FOX 5 DC, this time on The Marissa Mitchell Show, and we are still smiling about it.

The segment, "Fleece Tights for Women of All Shades," aired on September 21, 2026. Missed it? Catch the full clip here.  

Why this moment means so much

Melanin Fleece Tights started in 2022 with founder Marianna and one simple need: tights that work for every skin tone and every silhouette. We were the first to bring inclusivity to the fleece-lined space, and we're still leading the way with Regular and Tall lengths in sizes up to 3XL.

Seeing that story on local TV again? Pure joy.

What makes our tights different

  • Shades for everyone. A curated palette of natural skin tones, so you can rock dresses, skirts, and shorts all season long.
  • Sizes and heights that fit. Regular and Tall lengths, because comfort should never depend on your height or size.
  • No sliding, no sagging. Our Luxe Soft Life Collection features the DiamondFit™ Gusset and single-seam construction, designed to stay put all day. No more shorts over your tights just to hold them up!

Thank you

A huge thank you to Marissa Mitchell and the FOX 5 DC team for sharing our story. And thank you to YOU, our community. Every share, review, and pair worn is why we get to keep growing.
