Hose Review: Funfit Light Support Pantyhose

Today I will be reviewing this pair of pantyhose which I've got sometime ago, but have yet to do a proper review.


Waistband
The waistband is of regular construction; comparatively comfortable with the Elegant All Sheers series.

Material
Despite being 15 Denier, it's a little glossy under light.  It feels a little rough to the skin, due to the grip, unlike the coarse, scratchy feel from drugstore housebrand hosiery.

Panty
Regular boxer briefs with single center seam.  As this range doesn't have a large size, there's no option to get a more comfortable fit.

Foot
Reinforced heel.  The reinforced intersection can be seen behind toes when worn, unlike the regular thick reinforced toe construction, making it decently suitable for wearing with open-toe footwear.

Yarn
The support strength is unexpectedly firm despite being named light support.  This a type of support I feel right for the extensive walkers, standers and sitters at work.
It comes in Color 29 and 30, former being Nude equivalent, while the latter is Beige equivalent, with a hint of pink, making it look taupish toned.

Comfort: 7/10
Durability: 7/10 (estimated wear count: TBA as first pair is still going strong)
Fit: 8/10

Conclusion
One of the yarn-comfortable pantyhose.  The fit is a little borderline for my height, and when worn carefully and properly, it's still a great fit.

Outdoor Hose Report - Off the Skin Shade, to the Black side

Made a break this morning by choosing an entirely different set altogether; instead of the regular folded berms and skintone hose, I decided to do something different; black leggings completed with black pantyhose:

Attire Roundup: Striped Top with Su.Soku Seamless leggings, folded,
complete with Su.Soku Extra Support Pantyhose.
Lift shot: One of the visual tests outdoors.
Hosed leg shot - Looking good and all set!

This is definitely something out of the regular attire; probably something not commonly seen of men going out in; leggings and matching pantyhose, but I decided to go on with it anyway.

After slipping it on and adjusting the leggings to show enough hosed legs, I completed the look with a bulkier looking pair of runners and off I went.

Sun was hot, lighting the day up pretty well.  There was a mother and child who joined my lift journey down but she didn't gave any weird stares after entering in.  Crowds could be seen walking around in the neighbourhood; I mustered up the courage to just walk on as any one would regularly in whatever attire they came out in, as usual for my grocer run.  Through the mall, down the regular escalator, I reached the grocer to pick up some stuff as one normally would.  Since the self-help kiosks were not operating yet, I had to approach human cashiers.  Made my payment and went off at a regular pace. 

Made my way back using the same escalator, crowded entrance/exit and crossed the road using the traffic junction this time.  Clusters of folks could be seen passing me but I took no notice of anyone looking at my hosed legs while I set my visual back to the normal level.

After a short walk, passing children and parents at the fitness corners, took my lift up as usual, home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Off the Skin Shade, Nightwalk

Another day that I decided to go offskin shade, as the regular skin shade was already second nature, but I packed skintone shaded hose in consideration of attire matching.
The busy day fleeted by quickly and soon, I found myself liberated and slipping on a pair of Propeds Sheer Support Pantyhose in Beige shade.  It looked a little fair, yet carries a gentle hint as I had it to match my doublerolled white berms with fine, vertical stripes.  Made my way through crowded areas without any usual visual locks.
Ran some errands back to hometown, which was about an hour's subway ride from home.  By the time I was done, sun was already set; since I had quite a mental suppressing day, the best way was to do something I like, and that is, to hose out with offskin shade hose.
Went to the mall at town central, hoping to find that LaVora range from my favourite store.  However, it was already taken out, hence choices are limited to those available, such as Funfit, CheriLon, Propeds and other less known makes.
Rummaged through all the hosiery carefully and the only offskin shade suitable was Nutmeg, which I've tried and pretty confident in it.  Since I had the regular size, I got a Queen this time, in the same shade, for better comfort due to the garment construction.
Got my hose, went to change and got out.  Nutmeg has a grey-purplish hint, which is much more obvious at night even under bright electrical light; probably due to the nature of the yarn's base color.  No mattee; I went to my bus stop to find my way home.
As I was in the packed bus, I had to stand in the handicapped zone which deemed the most convenient and comfortable standing area.  As the bus hit the last stop at town central, I noticed a luggage bag towing girl was staring at my hosed legs for awhile.  Meddled with my phone and soon, she alighted, and naturally, seat was filled by another, male passenger this time.
The highway journey soon ended and I got off at my transit bus stop.  The male "seat filler" passenger too alighted, and I noticed he was constantly looking at the direction of my hosed legs, which were obvious as he was seated nearest to any oncoming traffic's direction, and periodically turning back and tipping his head out of the regular vertical seating position.
Bus arrived and boarded as usual, with the "fillerboy" still taking glances before he boarded.
The bus soon passed by some more populated area and a couple with baby boarded.  The mother sat at the middle priority seat which my hosed legs are still in full view.  About halfway into the bus ride, I noticed she was staring at my hosed legs from time to time, but no word exchanged during the trip as her spouse was in a further standing position.
Reached my bus stop, crossed the road into my estate.  No passerbys were noticing anything about me and soon, home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Off the Skin Shade

After several reviews, article readups and chats with like-minded hosed folks, I decided to go in an offskin shade pantyhose today.
Brought along a pair of Propeds Sheer Support Pantyhose in Nutmeg shade, along with my standard configuration of 2 backups (1 Suntan and 1 Beige shade) as I packed to get to work for the day.
As usual, day went by fast; and since we have an earlier time off, this was a good time to have more hoseout time after work.  Did my usual drill of change, slipped into the Nutmeg shade, which already looks pretty sensual yet matching in the shadow-overcast cubicle, matched off with my favourite slimcut berms (kept the rollups off for now) and walked out confidently.  My usual route always pass by a squad of kitchen workers who are on rest break, lining the railings of the external building, as this is near their kitchen access door.  I noticed they will take glances whenever people pass by; probably due to the fact that few people take this route behind the building.   Sometimes, I wonder if they are looking at my hosed legs.  Whenever that thought passes my mind, I just walked on confidently and normally.

I was greeted by a heavy rain when I got out; since it was raining, umbrella wielders like me will not take note of anything except moving on, and getting out of the rain.  The rain was so bad that it got my legs below knee drenched, changing the shade of my Nutmeg hosed legs to that of my regular skin tone;  it was as if the entire hose had gone invisible.  Nevertheless, I still have to move on to my destination.  I too, took this early out opportunity to get my footwear changed, as it didn't really fit well.  Took the subway, reached my destination without any usual stares; at this time, the hose have dried out and starting to show its actual color; it looks like a mild hint of grey, which can only be noticed if one looks close enough.  

Found the shop, after some exploration as I came here only once.  While the store worker was sorting out my swapping, I walked around and took a couple of shots of my hosed legs, which emitted their shimmer from my viewing angle.  No odd observation from the workers as I was fitting my new shoes. Once my swap was done, I went on to cross the road via the regular crossing.  Minor raindrops could be felt but that's alright, as the walk was relativeyl short to reach shelter.  The hosed legs are in full view under the daylight at trafffic junction, but no one was looking based on my visual radar.
Since I had some vouchers, I decided to head to the nearby mall to see if I can expend them for some hosiery.  However, the store had a measely range so I decided to give it a pass.  The hint of grey became a little more obvious from my viewing angle in the brightly-lit store, but that didn't pose a problem.  Probably the lowcut socks were moist, hence they clinged on to this pair of also slippery yarn pantyhose so I didn't have to adjust it anywhere.  Took the sheltered bridge above, and decided to stop for a couple of shots of my hosed legs, with the soft lighting in this tunnel.

With no luck with restock of my hoisery, I decided to head home instead of heading to another store, which is subway station away.  Took the route to the guaranteed seating place and made my way up the bus, right in time as I exited the station.   Found a comfortable seat and took the quiet bus journey back.  Sunlight was still active, hence I took a shot of my hosed legs, which from side view, appears tactical (as shared by a friend who saw this shot).

Soon I reached my estate, took a short walk, passing crowds without any special notification.  The grey hint on my hosed legs were becoming more obvious, but that didn't mattter.

Home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Caffine Hosed Day

Feeling caffiney today, probably due to the morning caffine overdoze at work, hence I decided on this shade after a busy day.

As with my usual configuration, 2 pairs of hose are packed just in case of emergencies, despite the wear time being shorter.  Brought this pair of Propeds Sheer Support Pantyhose in Toffee shade along for this evening's wear.

A busy day went on as usual.  Standard black hose under work pants are worn under regular work pants till the day's done.  Considering the fact that there were external folks in the office and exit timing may coincide, I planned an alternative route to make my way back. Usual drill on the change drill at the first level's Gents; final wrap with my linen berms double rolled up to show some hosed legs.

Took my alternative route, passed a regularly crowded staircase assembly with riders, which was unusually unpopulated today.  Got by the route behind my favourite lunch stop point where clusters of tertiary students and working class folks can be seen.  As I was commuting to cross this route, I took stop for a shot of my hosed legs under natural sunlight to see how it looks like from a digital eye (pic available soon).

Decided to go by the alternate route to subway since I have taken this route.  The journey was smooth as I was transiting to the other line from this newly built line.   As I was waiting at the station after changing lines, I noticed a middle aged lady conversing with her male commuting companion, while taking glance in the direction of my hosed legs.  They look a little matt bronzy in the subway station's light; but I wasn't bothered about whether she was really taking glance at my legs.

The train was getting rather crowded by this time, as it was reaching the shoulder of the rush hour.  Coincidentally, this middle aged lady who seemingly noticed my hosed legs stood beside me throughout the ride.  However, due to the rush hour creeping in, the train got rather uncomfortably crowded that I could feel her bag carrying hand brushing against my berms and hosed leg on one side.  Since the frequency was too often, I decided to inch off to a side where there's a little more space.

She alighted after a few stations so I had some peace for the rest of the journey.

Took a tunnel walk to reach the bus interchange since I'm on this alternative route, where there will be guaranteed seating since it departs from the interchange.  No unusual sighting here of my toffee hosed legs throughout the journey.  As I alighted in my estate, the sun had started to set, hence light loss brought about the enhancement of the bronzy look, while preserving the natural, nyloned look.

Home James.

Darkening the Offskin Silky Legs

After the first offskin shade experience yesterday, it came to my mind it was not too bad an experience afterall.   The only difference is about going public in a shade that's going to be noticed.
Decided to go for a darker shade this evening, hence I visited my favourite departmental store after work, hosed up in Propeds Sheer Support Pantyhose, Suntan Shade.  Had an early dinner prior to this, walking past crowded places as normal without any unusual stares.  The skintone shade hose must have been naturally flattering on my legs, and the norm crowd don't bother noticing.
After visting the hosiery section, I went on to sample through the colors, looking specially at Nutmeg and Toffee.  The former is a darker and warmer grey shade, which makes the skin beneath more natural in appearance.  This was probably the color which I saw an OL in during the morning rush hour, with black dress, grey hose and blue flats.  The combination looks classy, yet with a hint of sensuality.

As I was sampling through the colors and looking for the actual item, the brand promoter lady happened to return from her meal break, and asked if I've found what I want.  I asked if she had the stock of Nutmeg as I couldn't locate it; and it appeared to be in the same shelf behind Toffee.  She went on to help by guiding my hand to slip into the sample hose to see the color, before asking if the wearer is fair/dark skin-toned.  My reply was "she's not that dark, but prefer dark colors" while the brand promoter wanted to recommend me a skintone shade.  In the end, I got a pack of Nutmeg and Toffee (they come in 2-pair packs).

Had my fitness regime done and after washing up, nightfall came, and so is my evening hosewalk for the 2nd attempt in this arena.  Sampled both the Toffee and Nutmeg as follows (picture available soon):

Toffee is a little brownish, with shade similar to Color 803 of Su.Soku's Sheer Support Pantyhose.   Nutmeg appears better as compared to Smoke Pearl, hence I decided to go with this pair as the Toffee Shade can wait for another day.  Matched the Nutmeg with slimcut berms, triple rolled, and boat shoes, a simple top and went to the grocer for some simple errands cum hosewalk adventure.
Walked around the grocer several times to find what I needed, while observing the shade of hose on my legs under the bright lights here.  Shade appears much better, as it doesn't give the legs pallid look (picture available soon):

After I found what I needed, paid at the human cashier and took my leave naturally.  There was a security guard on night duty but I wasn't too bothered by his presence, or if he took a glance at my hosed legs.  Up to the main entrance, taking the main, populated entrance / exit and made my way back.  Passed a few OLs and none of them were bothered with my hosed legs.

Made in home after a short walk, passing regular pedestrians who were glued to their smartphones on the move, Home James.

Shading Offskin

After months of hosing out confidently, I decided to go into the next arena, which is moving off the skin shade.  This is not a measure to seek "excitement" in another color of hosiery, but rather, optimizing the range of hosiery colors made by manufacturers, but making it public on men.
This is the first attempt of hosing out in an offskin shade, hence I took sometime to rummage through my inventory of hosiery, making tries on a variety of shades before deciding what to go out in.
Here are the various shades I have chosen (picture available soon):

Propeds Smoky Pearl - under electrical white light.
After some consideration, I decided to go out in Smoke Pearl as the color appears subtle to the skin shade under the white light at home.  My favourite combination was to go with my slimcut berms, triple rolled, and dark grey canvas-top loafers which I commute in everyday.  From the lighting at the lift lobby, it was still quite alright.  Went to an eatery which was on the other side of my estate as it was less crowded, and to also taste some food which I have not ate for awhile.
Propeds Smoky Pearl - under electrical warm light.

At the eatery, made my order, had my meal, all these with my grey hosed legs in full view, but no one took notice.  Since it was still a little time before shops closed, I took my walk to the mall.  As I was walking through the mall (which was reasonably crowded) to reach the grocer's, the shade became more obvious, giving my legs a silvery hue.  Window browsed some stores without getting special notice, before heading to the grocer's for some resupply run. 

No doubt the shade is nice, the combination with my skintone wasn't too flattering.  However, since I've already walked through the grocer's normally as anyone would, I went on to the human cashier to make my payment, before heading off in a normal pace.  Throughout the time I was around the grocer's, I noticed no one actually bothered to look at my hosed legs.

Propeds Smoky Pearl - Last shot for the evening.
Took my time to walk back home.  The feeling was like that of when I first hose out in Nude shade some time back.  Probably I'll go for a darker shade at the next attempt; for now, keeping this off-skin shade for nightfall will be a good start.

Decommissioning the Wornout Nylons

This pair of Su.Soku Sheer Support pantyhose have been serving me well for more than 5 wears so before I decommission it, here's a couple of shots taken of against natural window light:

Full legs shot: Su.Soku Sheer Support pantyhose in Color 803. 
They really do flatter the legs nicely.
There's a run down the toe area as the reinforced toe construction isn't that solid as Propeds or other makes I've tried.  I still love this pair  of hose, but since the runs are decaying the garment, I have to let it go.

While it's a pity to dispose the entire hose, I snipped off the legs a couple inches below the panty line, converting it to a comfortable pair of boxer briefs; this is useful on days / occasions where it's not suitable for me to hose out openly.  The yarn of this definitely make an extremely comfortable pair of briefs.

Outdoor Hose Report - Accidental Lightening

A busy day at work and time flies; soon I was ready to go home.
The morning was a little rush as I was up later than usual, hence I just picked another pair of hose from the bundle of a recent laundry harvest to bring out.  My usual practice is to bring 2 pairs of skin shade hose for change after work, and a pair of black under regular work pants for support and insulation.

As I was changing into this pair, the yarns were suspiciously strong and I saw no frails in thw panty area as I was adjusting.  That was where I realized I had taken a pair of Funfit Light Support in Color 29, which definitely gave a good support to my legs and the panty was decently supporting, without slipdowns like their Nude Look range.

As this pair was light colored, it was gentle with a hint of flesh shade, hence I didn't bother changing to the other pair, which is a SLEEK sheer to waist support in Flesh shade; it's waistband wasn't wide enough for comfort.  Nevertheless, decided to walk out bold, at the busy junction to reach my subway station while dropping mental concerns about how others will look at my hosed legs.  It was really a fair but not pallative look, so it came at the right time to match my light colored theme today of a white top, with sky blue, double-rolled berms.

In the subway, being neutral temperatured and considerably bright, there's 'no escape' which I had no plans to.  Afterall, it's been awhile since I hosed out publicly and gaining confidence comfortably, so I just went on ahead.

Compilation of my hosed legs in Funfit Light Support Pantyhose, Color 29.  Pinkish hint that varies shades under different lighting conditions.

As usual, visual radar tells me that no one is particularly staring as they're occupied with their usual;smartphone usage or chatting with travel companions.  A busy day as such definitely deserves some outdoor hose experience later!  More updates to come.  Stay tuned!

Outdoor Hose Report - Organize Hosing

One of the off days from regular work hence decided to go out during the day hours to run some errands, and also gaining further outdoor hose confidence.  Needed something to organize those pantyhose in my wardrobe.

Since I haven't had lunch and it was late, I might as well do it altogether when I'm out.  Slipped into my favourite Propeds Elegant All Sheers Support Pantyhose in Beige, with my favourite no show socks and low back loafers, above knees linen berms and singlet since it was a sunny afternoon.

As the sun was pretty bright today, the beige wrapping over my legs appear to be a little pale than usual; so at the back of my mind, I was analyzing if I wore the wrong shade today; but after some mental inventory check, it was all in order.  Took the usual alternative path as the multipurpose shelter (MPS) was occupied, and crossed the road, walking past a few female domestic workers, homemakers without getting any attention.

Soon, I reached the LRT platform by foot and saw quite a handful of commuters getting ready for the arriving train.  Boarded and took the space at the inactive door till I reached my transit station.  Took the front space near the door seat, beside a homemaker and her teen boy, who probably were too occupied talking, while the rest, handful of commuters were either gazing in blank space, or just occupied with their smartphones.

Alighted at a wrong station and made my way back up to the platform again; saw a few middle aged ladies and men who were looking in my direction, but I wasn't too conscious about whether they spotted my hosed legs, and took my stand at a bright area to get back to the subway.

Soon, I arrived at my destination.  I have to walk a couple of minutes to reach the traffic lights before I can gain access to the mall; decided to walk normally without acting busy on my cellphone.  After the lights turned green, I walked right into the mall, thinking back that even the man opposite waiting to cross, before this, was looking elsewhere though he was facing me directly.

Took my time to find what I needed at Daiso, but hunger caved in, so I went out for a quick bite before coming back.  At the food court, everyone was simply busy eating or chatting instead of looking at my hosed legs.  So done and up I went again.  I noticed a male banking staff was coming behind me as I went up the escalator, but I stood and allowed it take me up no matter if he is going to look or not.

Got what I need (saw some pantyhose in Daiso but didn't get any), went for some grocery reloading and made my way back.  No observance from anyone though I was standing in a "for all to see" spot on the LRT platform.  Took my regular path back, passing some motorists, male pedestrians and soon, a mother with her young children.  Got my letters out and saw a man pushing his bicycle slowly from another side, facing me.  As I usually walk fast, I didn't bother if he was looking at my hosed legs, got my lift and went up.  Home James.

After some outdoor experiences, I realized the snug feeling at toes were not due to misfit pantyhose, but rather the design of the shoes that made me wedge forward as I walk.

Outdoor Hose Report - Relaxed Repantyhosement

Weekend grocery restocking on a smaller scale.  As wife was out for a gathering, I decided to make use of the daylight hours to go out with hosed legs.  Looking through my inventory after a series of stockup on my favourite brand, I decided to try on the Nude Summer Shade from Propeds Elegant All Sheer Support Pantyhose.  Though it wasn't the optimum size, it was still a comfortable feet.

After doing some visual analysis against the sunlight, I decided to revert to Beige since the nude shades are too light for my skintone; decided to wear back the Propeds Sheer Support Pantyhose which has a regular panty, though yarn is a little glossier than the Elegants.  Went with one of my favourite above knee berms, noshow socks and loafers, and off I went.

There was another passenger; a middle aged man, in the same elevator with me during way down but he didn't notice my hosed legs; probably the colour blended well with the warm light.

When I was walking through the streets to the grocer's in the mall basement, I wasn't bothered if anyone was looking at my hosed legs, especially the little gloss it could show in the bright sunlight.  Went around the various stations, taking my time with selection, and finally cashing out at self-check station; despite getting assistance from the male staff, he didn't notice anything as while he was walking towards me.

After grocery was done, I took the busier escalators and did not do the "express walk" up the overtaking lanes; instead, took my time to walk out, past crowds, dining areas; even young parents walking towards me did not notice anything.

Reached the lobby and took the ready elevator, home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Additional Silky Exposure

Off work earlier as usual; hence I went to the nearby foodcourt's Gent's to change into casual wear so as to avoid being spotted by colleagues who finish around my timing.

Time to decommission another pair of black drugstore housebrand hose which has served me well for almost 20 wears which I wear under workpants.  Decided to show more hosed legs today by wearing a low back loafers and no-show socks.  Slipped into my favourite Propeds Elegant All Sheers Support Pantyhose, Beige along with above knee berms and walked out after getting that "heaty face sensation" off.

Walked across the library, passing walking pedestrians and those sitting at benches outside sheltered area and waited at the traffic light to my restocking zone.  Did a quick visual scan across and got busy on my phone; no one spotted my hosed legs.   Once lights turn green, I moved across with normal pace, passing young teriary girls, boys, working class and subsequently some diners seated at restaurants just along the walkway, right into the mall without anyone spotting my hosed legs.

Took the escalator up; this time I decided not to walk up quickly but allowed it to bring me to the next level.  There were OLs behind me who could immediately spot my hosed legs but it didn't bother me.  Went on to my regular store to stock up more of these hose I'm wearing since it's already a "spot on" style and color to my preference; didn't spend alot of time at the hosiery section as I already knew what I needed so it was a quick pick and go.  At the cashier, there was an elderly family but none of them were bothered spotting my hosed legs.

After paying (served by a sweet looking girl who appears to be a tertiary student), I walked past the main areas where female sales promoters could be seen before exiting the store; slow strolls to the escalator down to run some errands before taking the subway; queued behind a Malay couple while the lady was facing me as her partner was using the machine; there was another OL queuing for other ATMs beside me, at a distance where my legs could be seen in full view.  When both were done, none of them noticed my legs and so I did my stuff and headed for the subway.

Walked through the interchange, climbing stairs without hurrying in worry to be spotted in hosed legs, I did another visual scan around me quickly as I walked up to the platform.  Not the least uncrowded but I wasn't bothered and went to my usual gate.  While I was waiting for the train, I noticed a middle aged OL on the other side looking in my direction; she could be looking at my hosed legs but no matter.

During the trainride, visual scanned randomly and noticed no one was looking at my legs; not even the OLs sitting at the door seats facing me as I was standing at the inactive door side.  I chose this position as it was in full view of anyone who walked in to gain confidence.  As train was reaching my destination, walked nearer to door, stood in the middle section near the grab poles (an even more full view position) till the doors opened.

Walked naturally out, took my time walking up the "express" side of the escalator as it was a long way up at the transit station, reaching the LRT platform.  During the train ride, there was a middle-aged man standing facing me where he could see my hosed legs but I noticed he wasn't bothered.  Upon exiting, walked pass an OL (I noticed yarn color made my legs look a little tan under the warm lighting), passed the exit gates and crossing roads, other pedestrians who were completely oblivious to my hosed legs.

Took my time to open mailbox and got a vacant lift ready, home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Weekend Repantyhosement

A grocery run for the weekend.  Though I was up at 4am, only went to the grocer when the sun was up and a more regular hour.  This was planned to gain outdoor confidence.

After getting some work done till the sun was up, I slipped into my Propeds Elegant All Sheer Pantyhose in Beige, along with above knee length berms, no show socks and loafers along with a singlet.

Took the lift down and it stopped at several floors; first, a couple entered, then a dog lover with his pet.  I was located at the rear of the lift where my hosed feet could be seen full view when the lift opens.  As the lift descended, I noticed the lady was looking somewhat in my direction through the corner of my eye; she might be looking at her phone or the dog but no matter.

The couple were the first to exit at the carpark level, leaving me with the guy and his dog.  As he commanded his dog to sit properly, which it did, he was bending forward to touch his dog right in front me as his right faced the lift doors; this was also a prominent position for him to spot my hosed legs but he didn't.

When the lift reached the first floor, I took the route passing letterboxes which was more popular, instead of routing to the back.  Passed the regular shelter, saw a few neighbours walking to and fro but no one noticed.  I took the shortcut across the road as there were no cars, landed at the other side of the road; cars and pedestrians could be seen along here but from what I see, no one were looking at my hosed legs so far; passed an eatery before I entered the mall; which was a crowded place, still no one noticing.

As it was a weekend replenishment, I spent more time at the supermart.  Grabbed what I needed after walking past several areas in the supermart, of some were crowded with people but I just stood there and got what I got.  While going around, I saw the working staff grouped and briefed by their supervisor.  One of the ladies is in nude tone pantyhose and I walked past them, hosed legs unnoticed.   After getting what I needed, I went to a place to pack my items before payment, also where it wasn't isolated and crowded.  Saw the same supermart lady in pantyhose walking past me as I made my way to the cashier again; so far no unusual glances.

After I was done, took the more crowded escalator up; although there were not many people in the mall at this hour, many could be seen walking around.  As I exited the mall, I took the route on the other side of the eatery, stopped at traffic light to get the lights ready, still no unusual glances from what I can see.

Took my time to walk past traffic lights, passed a couple with pram, lone male walkers, passing right by their side and none noticed.  Got into an empty and ready lift, up I went, home James.

Outdoor Hose Report - Repantyhosement

Outdoor Hose Report (updated)

Wanted to go out in berms and hose earlier but was occupied, but eventually got out of the house for a grocery run.  Since I have been to the grocer's nearby, today's venture will be at the bigger store at the other side of the road.

Slipped into the L-LL size of the Propeds Elegant All Sheer Support Pantyhose in Beige, put on my no show socks and loafers since I didn't properly "expose" these hosed legs at the last 2 outdoor experiences, I shall keep the footwear minimal and comfortable.  Wore a pair of above knee berms to maximise this.

Took the lift down, walked past a sheltered MPH, pass a man and woman (OL heading home after work) who didn't notice it though there were lamps lighting the pavement.  Crossed the traffic light with car headlamps shining directly at my hosed legs as I walked on (no, this time I didn't try to look busy), took the busiest escalator down to the grocer's at basement.  Walked casually around with quite a handful of shoppers around in the bright store.   Before reaching the cashier, I deliberately weaved through a mother who was pushing trolley of purchases and went ahead to make my payment.  Passed the "roadshow" booth outside the grocer's, a man in shirt and pants, and took the travelator.

When I reached my block's lobby, a guy was also waiting for the lift; I decided to stand behind him as I still had a little worry about him noticing it (unavoidable when we enter the lift).  Soon, the lift came; I pressed my level and he got his, at the corner of my eye, noticed he probably took a glance without bothering much.  Soon, he was out at his level and I had the lift all to myself till my level.

Home James.

Considering its price that doubles that of the Support model, the quality has to be good, so remember to bring your own spare.

Waistband
Slightly wider than the Support counterpart, the waistband holds on to the body snugly.

Material
The yarn feels more elastic with a better fit, hence it grips the skin better.  Despite being 20 denier, it does feel thicker, probably due to the finer weaving.  Also, it features matt look as compared to the Support counterpart, hence it goes well if you do not want the legs to look too glossy. 

Panty
This pantyhose is Sheer to Waist, hence works well to go with short bottoms wear to avoid awkward panty seam joint at the thigh area.

Foot
This comes with a sandaltoe so it works perfect with sandals or open toe shoes.  However, do take measure to keep toenails or shoes smooth to prevent runs.

Support strength is still graded as moderate and is just right for me.  However, it does feel more firm due to the construction of the yarn.

It comes in various attractive tones to enhance the legs when worn so it will be just right for everyday wearing.

Comfort: 8/10
Durability: 7/10 (estimated wear count: TBA)
Fit: 8/10

Conclusion
By comfort level, this is one of the pantyhose suitable for daily wear.  Chose Beige as it matches my skintone best.

Outdoor Hose Report - Grocer 24 Hosers

One of the moments where an early grocer visit was needed since bread ran out at home; woke up earlier than usual so that I had time to choose the pantyhose I wanted to go with for this morning trip.  Fortunately there's a 24 hour store nearby for such times, so I might as well take this chance to wear it out.

Decided and slipped into a pair of Propeds Elegant Sheer Support, Nude color with berms, no show socks with regular walking shoes and headed down.  Walked past a domestic maid who didn't notice my hosed legs, then past a couple of men who were at the dropoff area near my place; didn't notice if they saw my hosed legs.  Passed a resident (elderly man) at lift landing of an adjacent block who should be heading off for early shift work; he didn't notice me either.

After passing a few car headlight beams and a few more people, I reached my grocer.  The lady was manning the place alone and busy packing some stuff near the cashier she is also manning; got what I needed and made my way back.

At my lift landing, saw an elderly man in the lift that I needed; was wondering if he will notice my hosed legs; but when the liftdoor opened, he exited, I entered; nothing.

Reached home.

Hosed Mission successful.
