Find out about our manufacturing steps
At Cygnes, we firmly believe that quality begins with careful and ethical manufacturing. That's why our tights are proudly designed in France , through a meticulous process that guarantees comfort, durability, and aesthetics. Discover with us the eight key stages in the manufacturing of our tights, a true journey of know-how !
1. Spinning
It all starts with the spinning mill, where our yarns are carefully produced. Our spinners process them to strengthen them (by coating the yarns or treating them in a way that improves their strength), ensuring the robustness required for our tights. This first step, carried out in France, is essential to guaranteeing the quality of our products from the start.
2. Knitting
Once the yarns are ready, comes the knitting stage, carried out by our partner, a tights manufacturer in France. Here, the yarns are transformed into tubes : one tube = one leg. The waistband and foot reinforcement are also knitted at this stage, which contributes to unparalleled comfort.
3. Round Seam
The tubes thus formed are then closed at the feet by our craftsmen, guaranteeing a precise and careful assembly. Here we carry out what is called a “round seam”, which is done manually to ensure maximum resistance . This crucial step is always carried out in France, highlighting our commitment to excellence.
4. Coupe Monté
Our tubes are then manually assembled using a cotton gusset (to add space or improve the shape) at the crotch. The flat seam used at this stage ensures not only greater strength but also optimal comfort. Here, once again, we collaborate with our local partner to guarantee the quality of each piece.
5. Dyeing the tights
Tights come to life during the dyeing process. We immerse a large quantity of tights in dye baths to maximize this phase. Once the dyeing is complete, the water is treated to meet our environmental commitment.
6. Forming
The magic continues with the shaping process. Our tights are steam-ironed to dry them and set the dye , giving them an impeccable finish. This step, crucial for the final quality, always takes place on French soil.
7. Quality Control and Packaging
The final step is quality control and packaging . Each pair of tights is carefully inspected, folded, and packaged in our offices, ensuring that only the best products reach our customers. This commitment to quality and service is reflected in every pair of Cygnes tights.
