Hosiery

We are confident we have one of the very best ranges of Fully Fashioned and RHT Stockings you will find anywhere.

Our beautiful Fully Fashioned stockings are made in England, using original Reading flatbed knitting machines, which were expertly renovated in 1994 ensuring a great British tradition of making exquisite fine hosiery lives on. These spectacular machines are sixty feet long and the pattern chain is altered to produce each different heel style and size.

The complexity of the manufacturing means that each machine makes only 30 legs per hour. Every stocking is knitted flat, in a shape which closely fits the leg and they are then individually seemed by skilled machinists.

Our Fully Fashioned stockings are made from 100% Nylon and the only stretch is in the knit when the stocking is made. This means that the stockings seem very long when taken from the packaging, but you will see how wonderfully these fit, look and feel when pulled on the foot and up the leg. Two pairs of stockings of the same size may slightly vary in length, by up to two inches, but for every individual pair the stockings will be the same length.

These wonderful stockings offer something very different from modern hosiery and really are the epitome of luxury and style, and will add something very special to any outfit, whether a business suit or your favourite party wear.

We recommend that you take the time to put on and take off these stockings using cotton gloves, since this will reduce the risk of damage.

Our luxurious Fully Fashioned stockings should be hand washed in mild detergent and dried in a position to reduce creasing.
