Shiny Tights

I don’t know about you but there are days where the stubble on my legs is a little too long and I need something to hide it. Or maybe it is a bit too cold and I want something warmer for my legs. Usually, though, I like to once in a while look at my legs shine as if they were covered in gold plating.

In my perspective, I equate pantyhose, seen on classy women, as the ultimate garment in making me feel feminine and sexy. Tights, on the other hand, are quite thicker (higher denier), very shiny and are mostly associated with dancers, costumes and as a part of exercise apparel. In other words, they are also sexy and feminine but in a dress-up-in-a-costume sort of way.

It just so happens that, often, I love throwing on that leotard or skimpy police woman set for a little role play. And there is nothing better than to have bright shiny legs being the star of (your own) show. Luckily, I’ve tried out many of the “favorite” brands out there and have come to my own conclusions on what will make your legs look the hottest.

Note that, while Wolford Neon 40 could easily make the list here, it was left out since that was an obvious favorite. That said, here we go in worst to first order…

Peavey Open Bum Pantyhose

It should be known that I’m not at all a fan of pantyhose made just for men. If, however, you take a pair of normal pantyhose for women and doctor it up a bit to suit my crossdressing tastes, well then you just may be on to something.

If that pair of doctored pantyhose uses the famous Peavey brand worn by the lovely Hooter waitresses around the world then you’ll definitely have my attention.

Browsing around the internet recently, I wound up on a website called Etsy, an online store similar to eBay, without the auctions, where individuals can sell homemade arts and crafts, jewelry, clothing and hard to find vintage items. Just my luck, I ran into the shop of  EddieJames, specializing in “sissy” items for crossdressers.

As a longtime lover/wearer of pantyhose, I’ve noticed around the web, especially those in the USA, that the preferred taste is somewhat limited. I’m sure many crossdressers and pantyhose enthusiasts still would rather travel to their nearest supermarket and pick out a pair along with their groceries.

Or worse, use the same brand they fell in love with ten years ago and haven’t caught up with the times. Hello L’eggs.

I won’t claim to be the genie for pantyhose fetish tastes but I have sampled a lot (including “playing around” in) and developed my own criteria for judging a pair of hose:

  • It makes me look feminine as opposed to a man in pantyhose
  • Sheer to waist and thick, 40 denier or more
  • It has a nice shine and in my preferred shade
  • It is so soft and sexy, that alone turns me on
  • Durable, doesn’t run after a couple uses

So here we have the winners, in order by favorite:
