Description
These are beautiful vintage flat knit stockings that look and silky feel just like the famous Hanes 415 style. The only difference is they were never 'inked' on the welt. We have a collection of them that were packaged either in generic 'Park Ave' cello packaging or our cello package. You will see that they have all the characteristics as the Hanes ultra sheer does...... the colored picot stripe at the top of the stocking, ornate diamond pattern woven under the welt and that classic slippery, silky feel of a lanolized vintage stocking. (The colors refer to the colored pico welt 'sizing scheme' (for stocking length) that Hanes uses: Blue for 'Short", White for 'Medium' and Green for 'Long'. This style used 'blue' and 'white' for 'medium' and green for 'long' and 'XL'. These are 15 denier, flat knit (non stretch) and will have a nice 'shine' when worn. Be aware there is absolutely no stretch to these so selecting a size is critical. You can view the sizing table here. Size 11 1/2 long are approzimately 37 inches; the 'long' sizes are 34 to 36 inches and the 'mediums' are 33 inches in length. Be aware that each size has a different price. Graphite is very close to an 'off black' shade (as seen in the images). Neutral Beige is more of a tan shade than a beige shade (very close to the Hanes 'South Pacific' color).
