Pamela Mann Thick Hold Up Stockings

For very skinny legs only

I knew these were going to be too small as soon as I got them out of the packet. They're supposed to fit size 8-12 so I should have known that no way would they stretch to my large size 10-12 thighs, yet I still had hope.

I decided to leave them stretched out on the piece of cardboard most tights/stockings come wrapped around to see if they'd stretch at least a little bit. Unfortunately they're way too tight. I can wear them literally just above the knee and they dig in loads and there's no hope for pulling them higher up my thighs. The tops just rolled down because they were stretching that much.

The stockings themselves I have no issue with, they stretch fabulously - it's the bands around the tops that are the problem.

The quality of these is incredible. They're thicker than most stockings, which is exactly what I was looking for so it's a shame they don't fit. I'm going to keep them and wear them as knee-highs anyway!
