Great... if you are 5'6" or shorter
These will only fit shorter legs, and even then the small amount of silicone on the lace still may not hold them up. The material is really soft and thick, but that's only a good point if you can actually wear these.

Fit
For reference, I am 5'10" and a size 20-22 depending on brand. I have long legs and wear a 34" inseam. I like to think of myself as an amazon. I fit on the large end of most of plus size stockings, so I wasn't in the least bit worried when I ordered these for a costume party. I figured in the worst case scenario I could wear them even if they weren't the most comfortable.
Boy, was I mistaken.
I realized there was something wrong with these about mid calf as I was putting on the first one. It was really tight. I know with stockings that if they are tight they are going to be short because of how hose stretches. It got really tight and uncomfortable for me, but in the name science I persevered.
I managed to get these as on as they would go. The lace reached mid thigh when it was stretched up and created a hideous muffin top look. There is a tiny bit of silicone at the very top of the lace that stuck to itself far more than it did any good keeping these up. Anytime I moved the silicone band stuck to itself and the whole thing started rolling south.
Honestly, if you are under 5'6" these will be awesome, but for us taller girls are out of luck. Maybe a tall girl could get away with these if she is a size 10-14, but otherwise it isn't going to work.
Feel
This is the place that I liked this set. The are super soft, and they felt thick enough to be substantial. I am rough on stockings, and these seemed like they could hold up for a while for me. The lace wasn't itchy either which I appreciate do to the fact that it sits on some pretty delicate skin.
Care
These can be hand washed or tossed into the washed in a lingerie bag on delicate. I do not dry my stockings because it can cause them to pill or run. I hang them to dry.
Packaging
These were packaged in a cardboard sleeve wrapped in plastic.

Experience
These were completely useless for me. They hit me mid thigh if I had them all the way pulled up, and if I even thought about moving, they would start to roll down. Which is the opposite of what their name promises.
I can't wear them at all unless I loose at least 3 dress sizes.

Follow-up commentary
23 days after original review
These were not working for me at all without a garter belt, and even then, they would roll down. I ripped the lace portion of and wore them with a garter belt which was very rocker, but not what I wanted in the first place out of a pair of stockings.
