Our Review
We could almost review these stockings without taking them from the inner packet, the toe and welt don’t quite touch wrapped around the card.. so as well as seeing that they have reinforced toes with a run stop transition to the sheer legs we can see that that the legs are glossy and the welt plain matt, we can also see that they are not very long.
Of course we can’t see the seam detailing nor feel the material or check the fit from outside the packet... so we have to try them.
These are incredibly light stockings, very smooth to the touch too. Off the card you can see that these stockings are made completely unshaped, the foot and heel detail and the seam knitted in.
For 100% Nylon stockings there is a remarkable amount of stretch. Sizing is accurate but far from generous, don’t be tempted to try and fit a size that is marginal for you.
The look on the leg is very nice, with a quality that only 100% nylon can provide. The feel is typical too, even though they stretch well these stockings do not grip the leg at all, only a good suspender belt will keep them taut and prevent bagging and creasing at the knee. From the outside the feel is almost a little rough, another typical aspect of 100% nylon stockings.
The heel and seam detail works well and is very flattering.
If you are looking for the fully fashioned style of stocking, and you want durability and a sensible price then these stockings are for you.
