FAQs

Do I need to wear a suspender belt with these hold-ups?

No, these hold-ups feature built-in silicone grip strips designed to keep them securely in place on your thigh, eliminating the need for a suspender belt.

How do I ensure the silicone grip works effectively?

The silicone grip works best when applied to clean, dry skin. Avoid using body lotions or oils on your thighs before wearing them, as this can reduce adhesion.

How should I wash my hold-ups?

Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and lay flat to air dry. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, or using harsh chemicals.

Can the fishnet material be easily damaged?

Yes, the fishnet material is delicate and can snag or tear if caught on sharp objects, rough surfaces, or sharp fingernails. Handle with care during application and wear.

What occasions are these hold-ups best suited for?

They are suitable for a variety of occasions, from everyday wear when you want a secure and stylish hosiery option, to special events, evenings out, and as part of intimate apparel.

What is the benefit of the seam detail?

The seam detail down the center back provides a classic, vintage aesthetic often associated with traditional stockings, adding a stylish design element.

What does 'plain top welt' mean?

A plain top welt refers to the smooth band at the top of the hold-up that contains the silicone grip. It is designed to be comfortable against the skin without added embellishments in that specific area.

Troubleshooting

Hold-ups slipping down

Ensure the silicone grip strips are clean and dry. Clean your thigh area to remove any lotions or oils that might interfere with adhesion. Reapply by ensuring the silicone strips are lying flat against the skin.

Snags or tears in the fishnet

Handle with extreme care. If a small snag occurs, try not to pull at it. For larger tears, the hold-ups may need to be replaced. Always check for sharp edges on jewelry or fingernails.

Discomfort from the top welt

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the welt feels too tight, try a larger size. Make sure the silicone strips are not bunched up.

Seam detail becoming misshapen

Gently smooth the seam after washing and drying. Avoid excessive stretching or wringing of the hold-ups.
