We consider the embeddings of certain Besov and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces in spaces of Lipschitz type. The prototype of such embeddings arises from the result of H. Brézis and S. Wainger (1980, Comm. Partial Differential Equations5, 773–789) about the “almost” Lipschitz continuity of elements of the Sobolev spaces H1+n/pp(Rn) when 1
