These are fishnets with a twist. They look and feel good but do not stay in place without garters, which some women do not like. A quick handwash and dry and they are ready to be worn again. They are quite durable. If they only stayed in place, I would award them 4/4 stars, but the constant need for adjustment makes these not practical for frequent wearing.

These stockings offer a unique visual appeal that most fishnets don't; stripes that can make your legs look super long and break up the flow of regular fishnets. Unfortunately, they're not going to work well unless you have relatively small thighs. If your thighs are more than 19 or 20" they'll dig in, roll down, and possibly cause you pain. But if they fit, they're a worthwhile addition to any collection.

What could be more flattering to a pair of sexy gams than vertical stripes? Not much! Stripes can elongate the legs making them look miles long. I wish these fit better to give me that effect! Unfortunately, the band is way too tight and rolls unless it is at a small circumference around 17".
