FAQs

What does 'hold ups' mean?

Hold ups are stockings designed to stay up on their own, typically using silicone strips integrated into the upper band, eliminating the need for a separate suspender belt.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided. For these Ann Summers hold ups, Size 8 generally corresponds to UK dress sizes 4-6. It's important to measure your thigh circumference if possible for the best fit.

Can I wear these with a suspender belt?

While designed to be self-supporting, they can technically be worn with a suspender belt if desired, though it is not necessary for them to stay in place.

What is the 'barely-there nude' finish?

This refers to a very sheer, natural-looking color that blends seamlessly with the skin tone, creating an illusion of flawless, bare legs with a slight gloss.

How durable are the silicone strips?

The silicone strips are designed for multiple wears when cared for properly. They should maintain their grip if kept clean and free from oils or lotions.

Are these suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, they are suitable for everyday wear, especially when a smooth leg appearance is desired and comfort is prioritized. However, daily wear might reduce their lifespan compared to occasional use.

What material are they made of?

These hold ups are made primarily of Polyester, contributing to their smooth, glossy finish and durability.

Troubleshooting

Hold-ups slipping down

Ensure the silicone strips on the thigh are clean and dry. Avoid applying lotions or oils to the skin in the thigh area before wearing. Check that the size is correct; if too large, they may not grip properly.

Silicone strips causing irritation

Ensure the skin is clean and dry. If irritation persists, discontinue use. Consider using a different type of hosiery or a suspender belt.

Snags or runs appearing

Handle the hold-ups with extreme care. Avoid sharp jewelry, rough surfaces, and quick movements when dressing or undressing. Minor snags may not immediately cause a run, but it's best to be cautious.

Uneven sheen or finish

Ensure the hold-ups are applied smoothly without creases. Wash and dry them according to care instructions to restore an even finish.
