For only 4 dollars, there is no way you can go wrong with these fishnet stockings. Sure, you can tell that they are a little on the cheap side by the way they stretch out, but you will definitely be able to get your moneys worth out of them. I purchased the black, so that is what this review is based on, but they are available in a wide range of colors.

These stockings are packaged in your typical cardboard hosiery sleeve. It is pink and black with a picture of the stockings on the front. Anyone will be able to tell from a glance what the package is. It states that the stocking are made from 100% Nylon and that they are “one size” and designed to fit someone between 90 and 160 pounds. They were made in Taiwan. The washing instructions are also on the package and state: "hand wash warm; only non-chlorine bleach when needed; drip dry; and do not iron". Inside the cardboard sleeve, the stocking are wrapped in plastic. None of this packaging is specialized for storage.

Unstretched, these stockings measure roughly 20 inches. I have heard some people complain about Leg Avenue stockings running short, so I was a bit worried that these would too. But they fit me perfectly, and I mean perfectly. I got them to stretch all the way up to 27 inches, which for me is the mid-thigh area the model is wearing them on. There is still a little stretch to them, but I would estimate that you could probably stretch them to a maximum of 30 inches. At the mid-thigh area where I wear them, I measure a little less than 19 inches around. The tights did not did dig in or feel tight at all. They can probably accommodate larger thighs as well, though I did not want to completely stretch them out to find out. However, given the amount of stretch in the stockings, I think they can probably comfortably accommodate someone with up to 23 inch thighs, maybe even 24 inches.

The top of these stockings is unfinished, which means that there is only a seam and no extra material for them to stay up by themselves. You will need to wear these with garters. However, if you have thicker calves, you might be able to get away with wearing these as knee high socks, without needing something to hold them up. The good thing about the unfinished top is that they will probably not give you that awful too-tight, muffin-top look that everybody hates.

Now, you can tell that these are not “top of the line” because they do not do an very good job of holding their shape. They will stretch out after wear and do not snap back to their original shape. You should expect that you will have to replace these at some point. But remember, you only paid 4 dollars for them. Personally, I think that they are worth it and that you will get enough wear time out of them to make them a worthwhile purchase.

I’ve worn them a couple times and I love the way they make my legs look. They are very classy and they look good with a variety of different lingerie items. They are a great addition to any hosiery collection. When you put them on though, just make sure you do it slowly and carefully, because they seem like they could easily catch on a toenail or a fingernail and rip or pull.

I've worn these stocking a few times now, and although they have stretched out a bit, I still see some future uses in them. For the price, you can't go wrong!
