These black color fully fashioned seamed stockings have an authentic French heel and are perfect to recreate that authentic 1950's look.
The French heel on fully fashioned stocking is where the reinforced part tapers off to a point, resembling the outline of this Eiffel Tower, which helps to accentuate the length and shape your legs. The French heel is also known as the Point heel, due to the point at the end of the heel.
Each pair of stockings has been sewn together individually at the back and has a keyhole (finishing loop) at the top of the stocking welt. The double thickness welt is best paired with garters that have at least six straps, to keep the stockings looking their best.
French Heel Fully Fashioned Stockings were actually made in the 1950s using the same vintage Reading knitting machines that were used to make these glamorous seamed nylons. They are perfect to recreate a truly authentic vintage look and feel.
Authentic Fully Fashioned stockings are made from 15 denier nylon and do not stretch, so please choose your size carefully. There are available from an extra small to a tall size, so you can get a perfect fit.
