SPANX Shapewear for Women Original High-Waisted Footless Pantyhose, Nude, D

The product is true to size but the nylon in the lower leg part is very fragile and I already have two runs in one of the legs. It doesn’t make a lot of difference since it’s the upper part that is most important but just frustrating to get runs so quickly. The top does not roll down and my clothes look very smooth while wearing the product.

After reading the reviews I knew what I was getting. I got this to wear with my white wedding outfit but I knew other buyers had problems with it ripping, so I didn’t even try it on before the day (I had a backup plan). Here is my experience: Pros: - it does the job well, offer decent compression and shaping without rolling down at all. I was pretty impressed by how well it held over my ribs, while most other options I tried rolled right down. - it’s quite comfortable for what it is. I didn’t feel like it was hard to breathe or anything. - fit was true to size. Just a little bit tight and hard to put in but that’s kinda the the point - it did not show at all. No seams visible on the side or anything. Looked great. Cons: - it ripped off when I first put it on. Huge rips from top to bottom, in both the front and back. And it wasn’t even in the stocking part as I expected, but actually in the top, shape-wear area. As you can see in the photos, the lines marked in red are not the seams, but rather two huge tears that I got by just putting them on. I was extremely careful with my nails but just by stretching it I immediately heard the rip. Bear in mind it was not super tight, I wasn’t looking for a lot of tummy control or anything but just wanted to not have pantie lines. Bottom line, I don’t regret getting them as I only needed it for one special occasion. However, given that it’s something that is meant to hold some compression and considering the price, I do believe it should not rip by simply putting it on.

These are never a disappointment! Perfect for smoothing any lumps and bumps for under dresses, skirts and dress pants!! I never have a roll down issue but just for extra security I always tuck the top of my spanx under my bra. I’m 5’1 - 200lbs hourglass, size 12/14 pants and got size D

Perfect when you want a light control and seamless look

I absolutely love this item from Spanx, the problem is the sheer is not made durable enough to last a reasonable amount of time! I constantly have to buy replacements! Or returns because literally I just opened the ones I just bought and there’s a rip almost immediately and I’m super careful with them! I hate going to work without them on, so I constantly buy them, but I might need to find an alternative because I’m tired of having to return them and re-order!
