  Panty-Hose in general:

As I mentioned on the first page, even though the nylons and panty-hose appear to be more than one color, they are not.  They are partially transparent.  Just as real nylons, the leg area is more transparent (t70 = 70% transparent) than the reinforced top, heels and toe areas (t30 = 30% transparent).  This makes the nylons seem more realistic, since they have transparency just as real nylons do.  This also allows your natural leg and coloring to show through partially, just as real nylons allow. I consider this combination of transparencies to be termed t3070 - indicating 70% leg transparency and 30% reinforced nylon transparency.

Note as mentioned below that panty-hose are really two garments that need to be worn together.  The top part are considered underpants, and the lower area socks.  Of course you must match the right colors for these.

Panty-Hose with nude top

Nylons with nude top come in a set of assorted colors.  Those colors include brown, black, pink and a few selected others.  The price for that set is kept low at  L $10.  In the view at the left we were being modest with our model.  Since a 30% transparent top is still somewhat see-through, we elected for a side view in this photo.  When buying nude top, consider that even though the top is less transparent than the leg area, that it is still reasonably transparent.

Panty-Hose with opaque crotch area

Panty hose with an opaque crotch area are a little bit more modest for those concerned about that in their underclothes.  At least for some, the opaque crotch area will provide at least a little modesty where it may count.  By opaque, we mean that there is no transparency through this area at all.  In our terms this area is t00 - or 0% transparent - for the crotch area.  In the other areas, the transparency is as with other nylons and panty-hose.  The leg area is t70 = 70% transparent, and the reinforced nylon areas are t30 = 30% transparent.  This set is a separate L $10.  This set includes brown, black, pink and a few select other colors.  I will likely term these panty-hose as t3070 type also even though they include a t00 (opaque) crotch area also.

For the technical or quality minded

Matching on panty hose is even more of a challenge for those who wish to know the details and / or are quality minded.  Panty-Hose is really made up of two garments - underpants and socks.  Those two items must meet flawlessly, or at least close to flawlessly.  For these garments, the underpants have very long legs and the sock have short tops.  At the point where the meet, there can be a slight flaw.  We tried our best to reduce that flaw area.  If the socks and underpants were to overlap, of course the color would be obvious in the area of overlap.  Instead the two areas meet.  However, you might notice if you look carefully that they do not meet as perfectly as in real life. But we also hope that you agree that the overall look is fairly authentic.
