Fully fashioned real silk stockings have an undeniable elegance to them, but they're not the only way of cladding your legs in style. Through the 30s and 40s, nylon was what you wanted. It was more practical, easier to wear and longer-lasting than its traditional woven counterpart.
These days, few people wear proper stockings at all; tights, leggings and hold-ups are more common by far. For those with a big nylon fetish, however, they're irreplaceable, they're sexy, they're practical, and they're a great addition to almost any kinky outfit. Nylons are a gloriously versatile choice, and they're affordable to boot!
