Sexy, in Theory...
I was really disappointed in these. They have the potential to be SO SEXY, but they fall horribly under that mark. Flimsy fabric and bad construction do not sexy stockings make.Published: January 30, 2012
Pros:
Sexy, wet-look fabric
Cons:
Flimsy, cheap fabric, badly constructed.
I've seen these stockings all over the place, and thought (actually, I still think) they were supremely sexy. Being a lady who likes leg accessory and shoe options, I thought these would be perfect to wear when I didn't feel like wearing cumbersome boots. Man, did they ever look hot when I put them on with a pair of black patent pumps! But let me tell you; the discomfort these stockings ended up causing me had me whipping out my sticky PVC boots quicker than I could get these stockings off. Here are the two main issues that I've got with these.
1. The toe! The toe is miserably bulky. The seams aren't sewn well, and when you put shoes on, the toe bunches up horribly. It’s like when your sock bunches up at the toe of your winter boots. Except these aren't socks, and you're probably not wearing them with winter boots
2. The fabric! This seems to be an issue with wet-look fabric in my over-all experience with it. It's flimsy, it doesn't hold construction well and there isn't enough Lycra in it to keep it in place. These stockings sag and bunch all over the place. My legs are long and lean, and these stockings had the potential to set them on FIRE. Too bad.
2a. Because of problems with the fabric, the tops of these seem to roll and get weird. Even with a garter belt.
These stockings were included in a charity pile of lingerie from a friend of mine who didn't like the way these fit. She's shaped really differently than I am; she's a short, super curvy hour-glass shape with big boobs, a small waist, and a 'donk for days. I am tall, broad chested with big boobs (that's about the only thing our body shapes have in common), no waist, no hips, no ass, and long legs. These didn't work for her for the same reasons they didn't work for me.
The company that makes all this wet-look fabric just needs to put more Lycra into their material; I think that would solve a lot of issues that I have with these stockings.

THANKS! :)You absolutely should be able to. They are made of nylon and polyester which are both strong materials. I'm sure they would look very cute that way :)

I've been able to. You'll want to make sure that your garter can hold up to it because these are a bit on the thick side and some garters are going to just let go after a while, but there's no reason why they wouldn't work.

I think these look so so sexy but I am wondering if anyone who has gotten these could share their thoughts. My biggest concern is size. My thighs arent enourmous but I am still wondering if I should go with the plus size to be safe. That tight,digging into your leg look is a huge pet peeve of mine...

I just bought them but haven't had a chance to really try them on yet. I will try to get them tested out tomorrow and let you know :)
-
Oh wow! These do look interesting. I'll have to go check them out now.

Thank you for viewing Wet look thigh high stockings – thigh highs review page!



Very informative info about these! What a major disappointment! I wanted these sooo bad. I'll definitely pass and keep looking for a better made pair. Thanks for all that really nice info on these! I had high hopes I wish they'd have been better for you.
well im glad i didnt get these then.
Thanks for the review. These look so sexy and they were on my list. I'll have to rethink. I would only wear them in the bedroom so maybe they would be OK for my purposes. Decisions...decisions..
Thanks for the review. These look pretty cool but after reading your review I think I'll pass on them.
Awesome review!
Would they survive snipping the toes off and using them like that? Thanks for the review!
So sad that these didn't work for either of us...
Ty!
Thanks for your review!!
Awesome review! Thanks!
