Sheer tights therapy

Sheer tights therapy

Post by DrFishnets »

I bought myself a 5 pack pairs of black sheer 10 denier tights from M&S for £4 and they are sheer bliss. I wore them under knee length black opaque socks and a black midi skirt and went for a walk and the silky feel on my thighs of the sheer 10 denier tights and the feel of the skirt while while walking and the breeze up my skirt was a very sensual, calming and therapeutic experience. That as well as playing calming music on my headphones is pure mental health therapy. The only setback is the tights ladder easily.

I have been buying Tesco anti ladder 15d tights this summer in a 5 pack for £5 in a range of browns and black. I have been amazed at how good the have been for the price compared with some of my thicker and more expensive hosiery and certainly living up to there anti ladder claim.

I also like the look and feel of my legs in thinner hosiery, which I have been trying this summer.

This is just my opinion but I have tried the anti ladder 15 denier tights but they don’t have the same silky sensual feel as the 10 denier tights that ladder and they look a bit more sheer which I like. The anti ladder tights are still good though. It’s like I find the old vintage 1950s fully fashioned nylon stockings far more sensual than the modern Lycra stockings. I guess it’s to do with the machinery used because the vintage 1950s nylons were manufactured on different machines and those machines are becoming obsolete.

I also like the look a feel of sheer hosiery and it’s a plus as it makes me feel sexy as I love seeing women wearing sheer black hosiery and I find it arousing.

Yes you are correct. I do have some 10d stockings which are very special. I was just passing on what I found out just buying bog standard tights from a supermarket.

Don’t get me wrong they are still good tights and thanks for the recommendation anyway and they are good tights at that price from Tesco.

Sorry, I wasn’t being short with you. I started just buying tights in the local Tescos as an economic idea since wearing skirts every day, my hosiery usage was getting expensive. And doing so I stumbled into these tights being half decent.

I forgot to mention that when it comes to tights M&S are the only store that sell XL tights that actually fit me. When I buy XL tights elsewhere like Tesco they don’t fit me properly.

I’ve bought M&S sheer 10 Autograph tights - 3 for £10. That’s as cheap as I’ve ever gone. They are good value for money but of course the more expensive ones are another level in terms of comfort and feel.
