oh..

i have been to the forums

btw
where do u purchase ur pantyhose usually?

most of the time online
i was in melbourne last year so i did some purchase in departmental store too
i think marks and spencer is a good place to start if you need something that suits your size

oh..
how about the shipping of the online service?
is it reliable?
the method of paying?
sorry coz i'm x familiar with online purchasing

i would say it's quite reliable (i meant who wants to con you for small purchases like this? it's not like buying handphones where chances of getting con are much higher)
you can pay either by Credit card or paypal
or you can try those UK/US personal shopper services in LYN to purchase through online websites (the conversion rate might be slightly higher but u get the convenience of paying via local bank-in and get the item posted to your place if a certain website does not ship internationally)
here's a good news - uktights having summer sales, go check it out - http://www.uktights.com/section/44/bargains

I got bad news.. My sis couldn't find any hipster type for me in US.. Any idea which website selling those..?

Oh, when to SoxWorld.. they did have hipster type but only in nude color.. Searching up and down for "printed" type..

i guess you have no choice then as hipster type fashion tights (printed with patterns) are hard to find unlike normal sheer tights
unless you might wanna try doyeah.com, which is a china based website

there is alot of ppl with pantyhose fetish...i have this fetish since as early as i can remember...

Thanks for the website.. Not sure how to navigate the website thou.. But found few tights and leggings from TaoBao website.. I guess it is much cheaper compare to UK/US brand.. (Low quality I guess)

well, the quality is not exactly that bad if you picked the right material composition, but still slightly expensive than the super cheap generic tights which doesn't last at all (aka disposable )
it's the sizes that matters normally
but i doubt the sizing will affect you at all, i would say go for it since it's cheap n nice if you need help with chinese characters, do let me know n i'll see what i can do

Black tights not recommended in areas with mosquitoes!

Hey there.. wanna share my newly received and bought tights/leggings..


Opaque Tights from US.. May view more from this website: www.hue.com.. The quality is awesome (soft).. To my surprise, its a hipster type of tight..


Stripy hosiery from SoxWorld.. May view more from www.ziduomei.com.. Its 20Denier.. It hug my legs tightly (won't move around)


Butterfly hosiery from SoxWorld.. (Sorry no website provided).. But its very thick quality.. According to the salesgirl,its new arrival.. Love this but its superb high waist..

Btw, found hipster type of hosiery at SoxWorld, but they only have one type which is 15Denier in nude and black.. Found this at Jusco Cheras Selatan.. (When to Mid Valley's SoxWorld, they only have nude color)

wow..good for u...wish i could hv gotten my hands on sum us hosiery..haha

Wao, very nice.. hmm.. I may consider converting to opaque type pantyhose, usually more lasting. Do let us know if it feels too hot... I am currently wearing sheers most of the time.

ms

Nope its not hot at all.. I use to wear opaque (I think that's why my sis getting me opaque tights) and they do have different type of denier too..
and yes its more lasting compare to sheers type (Save alot $$ also)

But I found that sheers type giving out sexy/mysterious feeling.. (Sorry if I sounds wrong..><)

LOL, no worries.it doesn't sounds wrong at all
i guess sheer n opaque has it's own pros n cons
eg, black opaque and black sheer has a totally different feeling

hmm, sex appeal ? Maybe, looking at the guys lurking around here... I do notice the movies and entertainment industry tends to associate wearing of stockings and lingerie as such. No doubt it carry some sex appeal for whatever reason. My another colleague prefers sheer black, I do notice she commands good deal of attention at times. , maybe there is some magic spell to it, I know sheer black hosiery with LBD is a real man killer.

For my company dress code , I opted for sheer (skin tone), I even stay away from black sheer , wherever there is run, it shows up so clearly. I am used to brand like "Hanes, Leggs, Kolotex Sheer relief. also some cheapo local brand)". I usually like the support style, they tend to cling on well and do not slide down too easily, apart from providing nice hugging/support feeling at lower leg area if I stand day long doing presentation. Those with nice crotch design is the best, hygienic too and can skip panty in our hot humid weather.

ms

sex appeal..hmm, can't deny it for sure
even lingerie has sex appeal (FYI, not your granny panties or bloomer)
as long as it's showing some skin, it does have more or less some degree of sex appeal
even LBD without tights is enough to grasp the attention of guys no matter where you go (unless you have really bad scars on your leg)

have you tried ladder resist sheer tights?
agree on that part on support style, at least it doesn't slide down easily that you have to keep adjusting it

I have not tried any of those run resist hosiery. My hose usually quite lasting, wind dry usually. I kept my nail well trimmed. I also used pumice stone to rub the edges of new shoes, straps as well to remove potential sharp edges that may catch the delicate fabrics. Also, around work places, seats, area that has sharp edges, stay away from them . Well I guess you do not wear them in exposed manner so my last statement probably did not apply.

Due to $$ , I usually took decent care of them. I am not too much into fancy design hosiery to make a fashion statement, but my wearing frequency is pretty high, almost daily basis, that's why I have decent deal of opinions. I was reading some old fashion magazines, a few years back , hosiery was not too popular, I got into wearing them due to works. Recent fashion trend caught on quite a bit. Started noticing many young girls wearing them, in particular opaque design. I asked some of my lady friends, many treated wearing hose as single use clothing item (sheer) , that's why the cheapo all flooding the market selling in packs of dozens.

good hosiery is probably cheaper in long run, if wear properly with care, added support comfort, more reliable too. I just hated having to worry about runs in my stockings when meeting customers, having to make frequent run to restroom. I used to carry extra pair in my beg, but with better hosiery, that worry is almost never there.

interesting to notice many male hosiery coming to market. kind of expensive too, looks like niche market.

ms

Well, your last statement did apply to me, since I can't be bothered to wear it under jeans or trousers, too hot to be handled
It's either wear it with shorts or don't wear it at all with long pants.
I tend to walk alot by the roadside and usually I'll avoid walking near those flower box by the roadside
Apparently, I heard that ladies shoes are designed and made with good finishing so the internal will not damage hosiery unlike some certain types of man's shoes (derby shoe or loafers worn with suits; sneakers should be fine).

Perhaps you should try ladder resist since the price doesn't differ much. At least. it keeps your mind at peace

Did you noticed that after a couple of wearings, even good hosiery tends to get loose and it is not as tight as it used to be when it's new?
I've seen somewhere saying that one should not wear the same pair over and over again continously; eg, if you wear'em everyday, it's good to have plenty of spares so that each of them will get enough 'rest' after one day.

It's true that male hosiery are expensive, but they are cheaper ones that are manufactured in China.
You can't deny the fact that it is designed to be much more durable and tough (more materials used for bigger sizes too). Some of the taller ladies in europe/US actually preferred male hosiery as they find it better in terms of fittings and durability.
Well, I'm hoping to see them in the local market one day.
