I really like the look of a french heel seam, but i would like to find a pair where the seam is a lighter grey and the stocking is my skintone.. any suggestions?
Darhling said:this my my pair of Gervin stockings, they have a pyramid heel, but I would have preffered a french heel - I am guessing they have a straight edge in the heel. Does anybody else know of Gervin stckings and if they have french heeled stockings?
KittyT said:Those ARE a French heel. Modern ones always have that little zigzag edge.

Darhling said:ahh okay.. I just read the back of the package and it says pyramid heel.
Ditto here, and it'll be over 100 with... well, higher humidity than Arizona. And I were them to work and church and pretty much everywhere else. Because when it's air conditioned, stockings feel good. And even when I'm hot, stockings keep my legs from sticking together so much. For me, when it's over 90, I'm going to be hot no matter what I do. Stockings simply aren't going to have much of an effect one way other t'other.KittyT said:I wear stockings here in the summertime, even with 90 degree heat and 100% humidity. Not so much for work, but definitely for nights out in air conditioned venues.

I can't go bare-legged in the summer because of chafing, but I've just ordered som culotte slips and bloomers so that problem is solved

So you could wear them if in you wanted.
