Oroblu is an Italian brand with a reputation for comfortable everyday knits, and the Soft 70 is its mid-weight all-rounder. At about $16 it sits between a sheer and a winter opaque. We wore them across mild-to-cool days to see where they fit.
What we tested
We tested the black pair in size M. The Soft 70 is a 70-denier semi-opaque tight with a soft brushed interior, a comfort waistband, and a reinforced toe. Oroblu markets it for transitional weather, so we wore it through cool mornings and mild afternoons.
How it feels
The 70-denier knit is soft and quietly warm, with a brushed inside that feels gentle on skin. The opacity is solid enough for cooler days while staying lighter than a deep winter opaque. The waistband is wide and stayed flat through a day.
Fit and sizing
Oroblu follows Italian grading; the M fit our 5'6" tester with a little ankle slack but no bunching. The 70-denier stretch is generous, so between sizes is not an issue. Taller wearers should check leg length.
Everyday wear
For transitional weather the Soft 70 is a sweet spot: warmer than a 40D, less bulky than an 80D. After a week of wear and a wash it held shape and color. The reinforced toe coped with low boots.
Value for money
At $16 it is a sensible mid-weight buy from a real Italian brand. A good bridge tight for spring and autumn.
Pros
- Soft brushed interior, cozy
- Good transitional-weather weight
- Wide flat waistband
- Holds up through weekly wear
Cons
- Not warm enough for deep winter

Who it's best for
Best for spring and autumn when a 40D is too light and an 80D too much. A comfortable daily mid-weight.
