Our Review

The first impressions of these pantyhose were in an area where we normally don’t pass much comment, namely colour.  The colour is called Crystal and it is a somewhere between cream and silver; most unusual and very alluring.

The construction is of a high quality with the legs shaped at the heel and finished with a sandal toe detail.  The control top is in the boxer brief style and has flat seams and a cotton lined gusset.

There are five sizes each offer more height and weight, it is unlikely that you will be unable to find a size to suit.  Sizes A-D offer quite a measured progression with size E being more what the Americans call queen size overlapping sizes B-D for height but providing for weights up to 220lb or 100kg.

For 20 denier tights these look and feel very light indeed.  The finish on the leg is smooth and soft to the touch and the gleaming pearl finish is a treat for the eyes.  A very classy finish that will nevertheless get your legs noticed.

Sizing is accurate and the fit is excellent.  

The control top really offers little or no control and it is styled quite short.  In our view these are plus points as the effect is one of smoothing, the panty being heavier than the legs means you could forgo other underwear and the lower waistband means you can wear under trousers and skirts with lower waists rather than just dresses and high waisted fashions.

Did we mention that we love the colour.. not quite silver.. not quite natural .. mother of pearl on your legs.
