I’m on the market for pantyhose but everything I’ve found is high rise and covers your belly completely, usually higher than your navel.
I cannot fathom how that can be comfortable to wear, doesn’t it hurt? But if high rise pantyhose are the standard it means people actually want them.
When I was deciding what sport leggings to buy I tried high rise leggings on once and decided against: it’s simply too much fabric, it’s not comfortable and I only need a mid rise legging to cover up to my waist, not all the way over my navel. Same should apply to pantyhose.
After visiting several stores I found a French brand (DIM) that sells one model of low rise pantyhose. However, I’ve not found a single online review of this product and I want to see what others think before I buy.
If you wear (high rise) pantyhose, is it comfortable? Does it hurt?
Do you know what brands offer low rise pantyhose?
Can you think of any reason why buying low rise pantyhose would be a bad idea?
No, pantyhose should not hurt. If they hurt, they are too small. The problem with pantyhose that don’t go up so high is that they end up rolling down and bunching weirdly if they can’t anchor themselves high up. They are not as sturdy as leggings, which is why they roll down.
I hope that helps!
High rise pantyhose tend to be very comfortable as long as it isn’t too hot. They’re nice because they don’t slide down. Most have some extra elastic that helps keep your belly looking smoother and flatter, as well as keeping the lines from showing.
My issue with low rise is that if it’s not up to your waist there’s a higher risk of them sliding down. It’s super uncomfortable when you’re walking and the crotch of your pantyhose is now halfway down your thigh. There’s no good way to fix it either without going to the bathroom to adjust. Slipping does depend quite a bit on your build, the pantyhose size and type, and the brand, so trial and error will find you the best ones.
Best of luck finding good hose!
Never have had an issue with the high waisted. I wear them often. Low waisted sounds weird, they might roll down?
i wear high raise pants and pantyhoses and it doesn’t hurt me at all
Try rolling it at the waist like a skirt if there’s not too much fabric.
Never had your issue, but Dim is okay. Mid-range quality.
I haven’t had issues with it hurting and wear it quite a bit
