Another One-Size Fits Small
These are really cute, but if you don't have slender legs they probably won't look as sexy as they do on the mannequin. The pattern starts to distort after being stretched to an average sized leg width.

Pros
Well made, cute pattern, inexpensive.
Cons
May be uncomfortable, even on those within the size range.
My husband has had these on his wish list for a few months now. I decided to order them as a stocking stuffer. The product description said 'One-size fits most' which usually means 'does not fit Sarah'. I figured I could at least wear them as cute knee highs.
When they arrived the package said 'One Size' and 'WT: 90-160 LBS'. I'm about 250 lbs so my first thought was 'SHIT! These are not going to fit at all.'. I didn't want to give my husband a stocking stuffer that I couldn't even wear so I decided to try them on.
At first I was barely able to fit them over my calves. The top of the thigh high is very sturdily reinforced and it felt like it was cutting off my circulation. I took them off and started pouting. I told my husband what happened and he said we could gift them to someone with skinny legs.
When he got home he looked at them and looked at the packaging. We stretched these suckers every which way. They're made of 75% acrylic and 25% spandex. They stretched a lot farther length wise than they did width wise. They start out being about 25" from toe to thigh and stretched to 50". The width of the thigh was about 3 1/2" (7" around) and only seemed to stretch to about 9" (18" around). With how heavily reinforced the thigh is it was very uncomfortable around both mine and my husband's calves. Mine is 18" around and his is 14" around. I've got very muscular and thick calves. I've always had them. I have trouble finding cute boots to fit because of this. After wearing these for a few hours they were finally comfortably stretched out.
These thigh highs are a black and white, bold stripe pattern. The toe and heel are solid black, but if you've got small feet the heel may not hit you quite right. I don't think that it would be noticeable or uncomfortable, but it may be a concern for some. The material is soft and reminds me of many of the novelty socks I've seen in stores with monkeys or other cute patterns on them. They're sewn well. I didn't notice any random threads poking out from anywhere and the seams are sturdy. The stripe at the top of the thigh highs is about twice as wide as the other stripes and is heavily reinforced, which is both good and bad. It's good because you shouldn't need garters to hold these up, but bad because if your thigh is any larger than 14-15" around you may find these uncomfortable to wear. The black stripes don't start to noticeably distort until they're stretched to about 11-12" around. At that point they not only start to look faded, but they are thinner than the other stripes as well.
Provided you're in the size range, these would be really cute to wear with a sexy pair of black panties and black or silver nipple clamps. They could also be worn with a cute costume to a party. You'll want to hand wash these in cold water and let them drip dry. No wringing. This will prevent the colors from fading and also help them hold their shape.
Overall these are a good price and very cute. They're just like most other lingerie where one size fits smaller women than me.

Experience
Because of the way these fit, I will likely either need to lose 100 lbs or just wear them as leg warmers. I like cute socks and it's cold so that works for me.
