Exciting Purchase, Disappointing Purchase

First of all, I was very excited to find these "Three Legged Pantyhose" on eBay.  The instructions in case you can't read say, "The perfect gift for the very special man.  They are oh so nice for skiing, hunting, football, almost anything - even open toed platform shoes.  Three Legged pantyhose are especially designed to conform to the mist distinguishing attributes of the male body."

I was able to "snag" these for $2 + shipping.  I'm sure if I were to try them on they wouldn't have snagged like the pair in the right picture frame.  I bought these Hanes pantyhose with the intention of using them for pictures.  They snagged when I first put them on.  The color isn't the best either, very pale for nude hose.  I won't be buying these again, but I was glad to get the Three Legged Pantyhose, which I believe are essentially the same as the old gag gift, Man-T-Hose.

Activskin Footless Tights with Fly

These are the Activskin A876 support footless tights with a fly.  I have had these for a couple of years, and usually wear them running when the temperatures are in the 40's and low 50's.  I have also worn them cycling with temps in the 50's.  They are opaque, but just sheer enough that they shouldn't be worn without something under or over them.  They were great for running today with temps in the low 40's which felt like a heat wave.  I almost wore sheer hosiery, but figured I would give these a run so that I could also review them.  They are very durable, and will probably last almost as long as a regular pair of spandex tights.  They are available through Activskin at www.glieberman.com/footless/ .

Doyeah Men's Tights with Fly

Doyeah is a Chinese brand of hosiery that came out with a men's line of hose a few years ago.  /these are their 80 denier men's cool opening tights.  As you can see, they are slightly transparent.  They come in the black shown, and also a skin tone which I haven't tried.  They are affordable at about $11 a pair, durable, and only come in one size.  They claim to fit guys from 5'2" to 5'11" and up to 190 pounds.  I am at the upper end of the height and if you were taller than 5'11, they would not be long enough.

I almost got a case of the Doyeah men's pantyhose with the "trunk" called the cool trunk hose with a special "trunk" for your "junk".  I was going to get the case and resell them on eBay, but decided that it wasn't worth the effort.  I almost wish that I did so that I could've got into the men's pantyhose market.

Activskin A549, What I'm wearing Today Under My Pants

This is an example of Comfilon, know known as Activskin's first style of men's pantyhose with a fly.   They stopped making this style a few years ago and I stocked up.  I am reaching the bottom of my supply, and from the picture can see that I have a run in the heel. 

I like the brief portion of these.  As you can see, it is much more opaque than the legs, which makes for a very durable fly.  These pantyhose for men are not bullet proof as you can see from the run.  this pair has seen maybe a dozen or so wears.  Since I mostly wear these under pants, I will still wear them with the run.  The style A549 is my favorite style of men's pantyhose and I am very disappointed that they were discontinued.  Activskin has not come up with anything I've liked as much as these, nor has anyone else for that matter.  The search is still on for the perfect men's pantyhose.

Gerbe Satin 20

Here's another example of men's pantyhose that went extinct.  The Gerbe line of men's hosiery was active for a few years.  Called luxury pantyhose for men, they were pricey at about $35 a pair.  I stocked up on a few pairs before they discontinued them, and I'm glad they did.  The fit and feel is perfect, and they have my prerequisite fly.  If I ever find these on eBay, you can bet I will try to scoop them up as they were one of the best kinds of men's pantyhose I ever did wear.

 

Cheap 100% Nylon Pantyhose

Sometimes it is nice to wear a cheap pair of department or drug store pantyhose.  The pair on the left are so old that the drug store has been out of business for years.  The ones on the right are sheer to waist No Nonsense.  The good thing about these are that they are inexpensive, but just because they are cheap doesn't mean they aren't durable.  The pair on the left have to be about 10 years old, and are just starting to show wear.  Sometimes male specific is nice, but sometimes hose are hose & cheap ones are fun too.  If you damage them, it is much easier to take than a $15-20 pair of men's pantyhose with a fly
