The Packaging

Getting Them On: as these seemed pretty delicate, I got my Hosiery Gloves on to make sure I don’t end up snagging these whilst getting them on. I had no idea where the motif was supposed to go, so I opted to do it on the right leg at the side. If it was supposed to be a back seam, that went out the window with me.

These were fine rolling up over my anklets, and easy enough to get on the legs. I had to stretch out the right leg a little more so you could see the writing a little better.

On The Legs: honest to God, it took me hours to try and figure out what it says;

“Live your dream. Follow your passion”

Honestly, I could not make out passion for so long even after stretching it completely out, but here we are.

The design of these are cool, and I really liked them as a side seam. I did think that they were a little too long for my legs as ‘passion’ wasn’t as clear as the other wording further down my leg.

The quality of these are pretty good; I have had better from Manzi in my eyes. I did manage to keep these pristine until I rubbed against a table corner and it snagged my tights up. Not impressed at all.

The fit of these are decent enough; I had plenty of stretch in them so they sat well on my legs. I also had good leg coverage so there were no ombre bits. It’s just the wording that I was unsure of; whether it needed to sit lower, did it have to be a little less stretched… who knows?

I do think these would be a lot sheerer on a larger person, and the lettering would be more visible than on me.

The feel of these are soft and smooth to touch. I had no irritation when wearing these, which I am pleased with. The lettering at the side, you can feel that these are stitched on afterwards as they bump up slightly.

The Toes & Ankle: these don’t come with reinforced toes to them, so you gotta be sure to keep those nails short and smooth. I did have plenty of stretch in these, and no pressure was added during my wear.

Around the feet and ankles, I had a smooth fitted finish, with no wrinkling. I had stretched them out enough already!

The Waistband & Gusset: the waistband comes with a T-Band, so it means it has reinforced seams, which helps if you are catering for all sizes. It’s a slim band, which works well for me. I had no issues with it slipping down or rolling over itself, which I am pleased about.

These do come with a cotton gusset, that sits flush against the skin.

This does also come with writing at the top, just under the band, but I have no idea what it said.

My Thoughts?

Not a bad pair if you’re after a statement pair. I liked that they were at the side; it was something different. I wasn’t a huge fan of the quality on this pair, along with the fit of it. Apart from that, they were good enough, and would recommend.
