Leg Avenue Industrial Fishnet Lace Top Thigh High

The stay up band is doing the quiet heroics here. These spandex industrial net thigh highs finish with a lace top lined in silicone, so they hold position without a garter belt and without the hourly adjustment that ruins an otherwise good evening.

Industrial net is the heavy weave, so these read strongly under a short hem and layer well over a plain bodysuit. Apply the silicone band to clean, dry skin with no lotion or oil on it, which is the single thing that makes stay up hosiery work or fail. Roll them up the leg rather than pulling from the top band. Hand wash in cool water, lay flat to dry, and let the silicone dry fully before the next wear so it keeps its grip.

Plenty of thigh highs claim to stay up. A proper silicone lined lace band on a spandex blend net is the construction that actually does it, and the heavy weave means they hold their shape as well as their height.
