Strong Pantyhose: Find Your Everyday Denier
The best pantyhose for your day might be almost invisible under a dress, or the finishing touch that gives a tailored outfit a little more depth. Choose the look first, then find the coverage that makes you want to wear it again.

A finish for the way you dress
For a lighter leg, try 20D. Its semi-opaque finish lets more of the skin show through than 40D, which adds a little more colour without moving all the way into opaque territory. Pick 80D when you want a solid-looking finish with boots or a structured skirt.
Before ordering, use the sizing information on the particular product page. A comfortable fit makes getting dressed easier than tugging fabric into place. Strong is a useful shopping goal, not a promise that hosiery cannot snag: fabric, fit and how a pair is handled all affect its wear.
Quick answer: For a polished everyday look, begin with 40D, then move lighter or more opaque from there.

Yes. The range includes 30D semi-opaque and 60D opaque plus-size styles. Visit the product page for the available options and size guidance.
