HOLD-UPS FOR WOMEN
Hold-ups for women - with a silicone edge and without
Elegant hold-ups for women. From Sokisahtel’s selection you’ll find both sheer or opaque hold-ups, with a lace or a more modest edge. Hold-ups with a silicone edge are an ideal gift for your loved one or bestie. Hold-ups are always needed
What is the difference between a normal hold-up and one with a silicone edge?
The hold-up with a silicone edge has a silicone strip under the lace that holds the stocking up. When putting on silicone hold-ups, make sure that you have not used a very greasy shower gel or cream gel that has been applied to your skin. In this case, the silicone-edged stockings may not stay up.
Hold-ups without the silicone aka hold-ups with suspenders. A garterbelt is also required to wear them. The stockings with suspenders and a garterbelt result in a beautiful and a sexy look.
Which hold-ups should you choose?
In the case of hold-ups, it is worth thinking about what are they needed for. For everyday wear, choose a pair of hold-ups from 20DEN and thicker. In colder weather, silicone stockings, 40DEN and 60DEN thick, are also comfortable. Formal hold-ups are 15DEN and thinner. There’s also the choice of either a wider or a narrower lace edge. A hold-up with a wider lace can also be seen flashing from under the edge of a dress.
From Sokisahtel you will find this model DIANA which is one of our most popular products. These are silicone-edged hold-ups with a 3D thread. The result is durable stockings that feel like second skin. In addition, these stockings do not come off easily and are resistant to sticking to a chair and other extreme conditions in which a regular threaded hold-ups often break.
What do you need to know about silicone hold-ups?
Sokisahtel offers hold-ups with a silicione edge which have been manufactured using skin - friendly and safe silicone, which has been confirmed by certificates and tests.
However, silicone may not be suitable for all wearers. People can develop silicone allergies at different times in their lives. Silicone allergy is more likely to occur in hot summer weather. If you feel itching and discomfort while wearing the hold-ups and the skin is red, remove them and let the skin calm down. In general, the reaction will go away quickly and you will probably be able to continue wearing the stockings calmly after a while. However, if you still have sensitive skin and cannot wear hold-ups with silicone, use stockings and suspenders.
Tricks how to make your hold-ups last longer
Wash your hold-ups by hand and lay them on a flat surface to dry. Do not rub or twist when washing, it is a delicate product that needs proper and gentle care.
If you buy hold-ups, buy 2 pairs of one model. In this case, you have a "spare one” in your handbag, and if one stocking breaks, you can quickly replace it with another. And in that case, the joy of new hold-ups lasts longer.
When putting on hold-ups, make sure your hands are not rough and your nails are smooth. Very delicate 6 den hold-ups have to be pulled up just before the festive event and with cotton gloves. Then you can be sure that there will be no breaking.
Which size to choose for hold-ups?
If you are tall and have long legs, take a one size bigger pair. For example, if you are otherwise wearing a dress size S (34-36), take stockings M or M / L. Then it is more comfortable to wear and the pair of stockings lasts longer
