I bought these because I had a beautiful corset and garter set, but had no nice stockings to wear with them. When I first received these, I was a little afraid that they may not fit. I'm a little curvier than average, and I was afraid that they wouldn't fit around my thighs. I was pleased when I put them on and they fit. They definitely have some stretch to them, but not so much that they stretch out of shape.

The fishnets are very comfortable to wear with a garter. They held up nicely in my garter belt and didn't slip out of the little hooks. I found that with different stockings that I wear with my garters, the top of the stocking likes to roll up and try to slide down my thighs. I had no problem with these doing that. I have found some fishnets that I have tried out to be a little scratchy and itchy to wear, but the fishnet on this set is very soft and comfortable. The lace detail at the top is a nice touch and adds a bit of sophistication to just plain old fishnets. Sometimes I think just fishnets look a little trashy, and trashy really wasn't the look I was going for when I had these in mind, so the lace helped class it up a little bit.

As for care for these, I just threw them in the washer and dryer and they came out fine. Unfortunately, I have lost one of them so I haven't been able to wear them for awhile. I wish I had the other one, so I could wear them with some boots or heels to see how comfortable they are while wearing shoes. I really wanted to try these with different outfits to see how they would look, but never got the chance to.
