Lack of labels with name of manufacturer and size is but one frustration women have with pantyhose, yet Best Durable Pantyhose are the main issue with women today!

Lydia Justice Edwards, Idaho’s state treasurer who started the pantyhose “wars,” thinks it would be a good idea if manufacturers had to put an 800 number in pantyhose labels so consumer would know where to complain about defective merchandise. It is required on a large majority of consumer products, but not hosiery.

Unless you save pantyhose packaging, it’s hard to know which styles and sizes wear best for you after you’ve got a stack of laundry. How many females purchase the same exact brand and style? Myself I love stocking up on the European brands because they have the Best Durable Pantyhose in the world today.

Some makers have begun putting labels into pantyhose because women are demanding it.

But one executive in the industry says sewing labels in adds from 25 to 50 cents to the cost per pair.

Durability is the real issue for the best pantyhose

An even bigger beef is best durability. Women who stuffed our mailbox, fax and phone lines with complaints and comments about durable pantyhose feel the industry operates on the planned obsolescence theory.

The hosiery industry says that’s not true, and that if women want “sheer and lovely” they’ll have to accept stockings that snag and run more readily.

Last year pantyhose sales reportedly dropped 7.5 percent. However, there also were reports that pant socks and opaque tights were making a stronger statement in the fashion world and at the sales counter as the Best Durable Pantyhose to wear.

In the past two years the hosiery industry has tried to create new durable products and use new processes for best pantyhose to please customers, said Paula Killough, hosiery buyer for 35 Bon Marche stores.

New yarns are more durable and softer, and more flexible to fit the smallest and largest bodies. And the pressing process for pantyhose best packaging is being changed. While pressing makes the hose look neat, not wrinkled in the package, some heating processes damage the yarns and shorten the product’s life.

Most hosiery makers don’t list the denier, or fabric weight. But look for 20 denier and up to be in greater usage, Killough says. Sheer hosiery usually is 10 denier; opaque is about 70 denier. The heavier the denier the more durable the stockings will be.

But wait ’til you read Killough’s estimate for your annual hosiery budget, it may blow you away. Counting all lengths and styles - knee highs, pant socks, tights, fancy pantyhose sheers and athletic socks - Killough estimates the average consumer will spend $360 a year. But the Best Durable Pantyhose are still purchased aboard, compared to USA brands!

The Federal Trade Commission is reviewing its hosiery guidelines that relate to deceptive marketing and advertising claims on factors such as the twist of yarn to a fabric’s resistance to snagging.

To comment, write before June 14 to the Secretary, Federal Trade Commission, Room H-159, Sixth Street and Pennsylvania Ave. N.W., Washington, DC 20580, and refer to 16 CFR Part 22, Hosiery.
