Reviews of the top rated Pantyhose:

Pantyhose, also commonly referred to as tights, nylons, or stockings in other parts of the world, are worn mostly by women and made of nylon material. Women wear pantyhose for a variety of reasons - make their legs look smoother and sexier, darker pantyhose make legs look slimmer, you get a "tanned" leg look, they offer added warmth in winter months, and lycra pantyhose increase blood circulation to the legs. The dress code for professional women has called for pantyhose for years and although younger women are now going barelegged, you will still find hosiery worn in the workplace. Pantyhose are made of nylon and a touch of spandex for elasticity and form fitting appearance. The nylon fabric pantyhose can "run" or tear quite easily on rough or sharp edges and is a constant issue for women who wear pantyhose. The popular types of pantyhose are thigh highs, fishnet, knee highs, footless, seamless, and rib tights. You can find womens pantyhose at stores like Nordstroms and Macy's as well as online. Below we will list pricing and popular pantyhose brands.

Foot Pantyhose - Teen Pantyhose:

With all the different styles of pantyhose that are out there, we found that the foot pantyhose and leg pantyhose are the most popular. The foot pantyhose cover the entire leg down to the foot, while leg pantyhose cover the leg, but not the waist. If you go to Nononsense.com you will find a great selection of pantyhose. Their inventory includes Silk Indulgence ($11.97/pack of 3) - reinforced toe, smooth and firms tummy, Sheer Endurance Control Top ($11) - long lasting with reinforced toe, Nonstop control top pantyhose are only $8.97/pack of 3. Smart Support and Sheer to Waist are also great values. The website has lingerie style pantyhose with a Fashion Acccent line - Super Fishnet, Honeycomb Control Top, Floral Pin Dot Control Top and Mini Fishnet Control Top. The thigh high and knee highs are perfect for uniforms or business skirts. In reading online discussion boards and forums, we found that teens wearing pantyhose were looking for something that looks sexy and didn't care so much about comfort or durability.

Repair Pantyhose - Fix Snags and Tears:

As we reviewed the different types of pantyhose on the market, we soon realized that many are made cheaply and are meant to be thrown away as they tear or snag and rip. Women are continually forced to replace and buy new nylons and stockings since they rip so often. Even if you are careful walking around, pantyhose tend to tear most often on toe nails as you put them on over your feet. Through the years women have been resourceful and learned how to do simple repairs on nylons at home. We've all heard women say "the first time I wore these they tore". Fixing simple snags and tears on pantyhose is possible if you have a bottle of inexpensive clear nail polish, a pair of scissors, and a damp paper towel or cloth. Repairing the tear before it "runs" up/down the entire length of the pantyhose is your best chance. With the scissors, clip the extra thread or part of the nylon that is sticking out. Keep your clothes away from the torn area so that you don't get nail polish on your good clothes. Use the damp cloth to keep your skin protected from the nail polish. It's easier to repair a hole in nylons than a "run". In any event, dab on the nail polish as you hold up the broken area of the pantyhose and never use too much or else it will not work. Dab the edges of the hole and wait 3-5 minutes for the nail polish to dry. That will keep the hole to a minimum and hopefully stop it from turning into a full fledge "run".
