The Obsessive Darkessia stockings do not stay up on their own. They are not self-supporting and are made to be worn with a garter belt, and the wide leather-look welt at the top is where the clips attach. Below it the leg is fishnet, in a fine even grid, all the way to the toe. Two sizes, S/M and L/XL.
Buy a garter belt with them
This is the one thing to settle before ordering. These are not self-supporting stockings, so they are designed to be worn with a garter belt, and none is included with them.
The welt and the leg
The welt is wide, with a glossy surface made to imitate leather, and it sits at the top of the thigh where the clips attach. The fishnet below it is fine rather than wide-holed, and it runs to the toe. The welt and the leg are made from different materials.
What they are made of
The welt is built in two layers, 100% polyurethane on the outside and 95% polyester with 5% elastane inside. The leg is 88% polyamide with 12% elastane.
Sizes and care
S/M and L/XL. Hand wash at 20 to 30 °C with a mild detergent. No bleach and no tumble dryer. Press the water out without wringing and dry flat, away from sun and radiators.
