Fishnet suspender pantyhose - crotchless pantyhose by Leg Avenue - review by Jul!a

These fishnet stockings are amazingly similar to these fishnet stockings, only the particular pair that this review is about also features cutouts to give the appearance of suspenders, or really thick garters. The look and feel will be exactly the same, but the fit is a little different.

They came in your typical Leg Avenue packaging; inside a cardboard insert inside a plastic bag. Both the front and back show a picture of a model wearing them, and the back has material and care instructions as well as the size guidelines. These are a one size item with a weight recommendation of 90-160 pounds. They're pretty stretchy, so they should fit a wide variety of sizes. Your 100% Nylon fishnet stockings should be hand washed and drip dried. However I have a pair similar to both of these fishnet pairs and they've held up for years in the washer and dryer. Wash them however you deem fit, and keep them with the rest of your other delicates.

The design is fairly simple; take a pair of fishnet stockings, make them crotchless, and then cut some holes out of the side to make it look like there's some really thick garters. They're functional, but not fantastic. At the very top is a fairly cheap looking elastic waistband. When laid completely flat it stretched to about 20 1/2", although stretched to the max on a person will probably cut in uncomfortably. Where it sat on me is about 31" around and I found it to be comfortable, even for long periods of time. In the middle of both the front and back, you'll go down a seam about 2 1/2 - 3" before you reach the crotchless portion. It's wide enough that I was able to wear it with the end right under my butt like the model, but also lower if I wanted. On the outer side on both sides there are oval shaped cut-outs. Laying flat they measure about 7" down by about 5" across, but they also stretch out like none other. You can make them span most of your thigh, or you can bunch them up to be about the same size they are when laying flat. As a note after the first time you wear them, they have a tendency to get all twisted on themselves. It's easy enough to figure out what way everything's supposed to go, but it will take a few minutes.



When you first pull them out, they don't feel like they're going to last a long time. I have some chipping nail polish on my fingers and managed to snag the material a whole bunch of times while putting them on, but never managed to do any damage. The weave itself looks really cool and is kind of hard to explain. It all looks really plush and almost fluffy or fuzzy. When you stretch it out some, you can see each strand and how it all interweaves.With the design of these stockings, your height really does matter. The shorter you are, the funnier they're going to look; especially because of the holes in the sides, making these a better choice for longer legs. Initially they're going to sit up really high, but you can roll the waistband over like you would a pair of sweatpants that you want to bring up a little bit. My legs are about 33" long and these bunched a bit at my ankles, behind my knees, and anywhere on my thighs I had tugged to try and readjust the netting. My thighs at their thickest are about 21" around, and there was plenty of room for larger thighs. There's also no reinforcing in the toe, so after a lot of walking your toes might pop out of the holes.

The holes in the side are purely decorational, but the crotchless portion is definitely functional. Pretty much any position you want to try is easily possible with these. If you want to wear these out as a sexy surprise for your partner but want the protection of underwear without the hassle of removing these to take them off, put these on first when you get dressed. Then you can have your sexy fishnets, your protective underwear, and then you can easily take off the panties to leave these on for play.

I won't lie, I like the other ones a lot more than I like these. They just don't work that well with my height because sure I can get the crotchless portion to line up right, but the holes in the side don't do anything more get everything twisted when I'm not wearing them. They don't line up that well on me and the color is the only reason I kept them. I don't get to wear red fishnets often, but these give me the option of wearing some without a garter belt.

Long story short, if you're short (I'm 5'2") go with the other crotchless fishnet stockings from Leg Avenue, and pass on these.
