Soon, Frenchman Fu Niai began to produce stockings in Lyon. Cotton socks were not produced until the middle of17th century. 1938 After DuPont invented nylon, the first batch of nylon stockings were put on the market in the same year. Since then, the socks market has undergone a thorough change, and nylon stockings has been favored by people and all the rage. The fashion in Europe was relatively late, and it was not until 1945 that the first batch of nylon stockings was officially put on the market.

The hosiery tube is opened at the back, and a garter is tied at the opening. The number of socks is 23cm and 23.4cm, and the height of socks is 2 1cm and 22.5cm.

Its comfort and convenience still make women all over the world fondle admiringly, and this model is enduring for a long time. Humans have a long history of wearing socks. According to incomplete textual research, it can be traced back to the era of the Yellow Emperor in China and to Rome in the 5th century BC in Europe.

Advantages of wearing pantyhose There are many reasons for wearing pantyhose. Transparent thin pantyhose in line with skin color can enhance the impression of legs and make them look smooth and bright. Dark pantyhose can shape the legs and make them look slim. Brown pantyhose can give a good explanation to suntanned legs: a pair of "instant suntanned" legs. At the same time, pantyhose also have practical value. Cold weather can keep you warm, and winter can even expose your legs. Pantyhose containing spandex (or lycra and spandex) can promote blood circulation in the legs through excessive pressure. In offices all over the world, underwear is a standard dress, where they are regarded as a professional form of women's clothing. Although bare legs are very popular among girls, socks should be worn on formal occasions where formal clothes are needed. Some uniformed schools often require designated socks (some are pantyhose or tights) as part of their uniforms. Girls often wear pantyhose mixed with cotton, wool or cotton wool to keep warm in colder weather. Types of pantyhose There are many styles of pantyhose. Its thickness is specified by a standard, ranging from 3 (very rare, extremely thin, almost completely transparent) to 20 (standard thickness), to 30 (translucent), to 40,80, 120 (opaque). Panties are sold in a variety of colors and textures (fabrics). In business situations, the texture is usually moderate, and the shadows are usually brownish gray, gray and black. Popular styles for leisure activities wear more colors and textures. The fabric of pantyhose is made of nylon or spandex, and the pantyhose keeps its original elasticity and plasticity. But nylon is easily broken and scratched by sharp objects. Breaking is very common. Cotton-wool blended pantyhose has a warm effect. Nowadays, the popular pantyhose have a standard manufacturing structure. The coat (waist) is very elastic. The part covering the hips is thicker than the legs (except for some pantyhose for dancing). The crotch bottom is also made of strong materials, usually cotton. Legs and feet, all the way to the toes, are made of the thinnest weave, and the toes are thickened and repaired. Underwear and Men Interestingly, leggings with stockings were once popular clothes for men (Europeans and Americans in the16th century), which was invented by L maddox, a scot. At that time, women covered their legs in public. However, the tradition is reversed. Men wear pants and women show their legs. In the 20th century, women bought a lot of pantyhose. However, in recent years, men's pantyhose have appeared on the market, which are good at keeping warm, improving blood circulation, and at the same time improving the look and feel and comfort. Surprisingly, men's pantyhose became a part of the Iraq war. "One thing American soldiers in Iraq need is pantyhose. Looking back on his former days as a player, Battestar said that he wore pantyhose to keep warm when playing football. This may make some people hesitate, but pantyhose is indeed a way for American soldiers to resist the annoying sand fleas. "

It is said that stockings were first created by the Spanish and ruled for a long time. /kloc-In the 6th century, ladies and gentlemen in the French court and upper class were keen on importing stockings from Spain, and red, orange and purple became fashionable. According to records, the first hosiery machine was invented by an Englishman, William Lee 1589. There is no doubt that stockings belong to the exclusive stage of women, but at the beginning of the invention and for a long time after that, their main service targets were men. In the 16 and 17 centuries, men wearing loose shorts, stockings (sometimes revealing the mouth of ribbon bows) and high heels were more decorative and pink than modern girls wearing miniskirts. /kloc-variegated stockings were also popular in the 0 th and 5 th centuries, with different colors on the legs and interesting spots.

(1) category selection. At present, there are mainly chemical fiber socks (nylon, silk, thin elastic band, etc. ), cotton socks and blended, interwoven, wool, real stockings and so on. According to the season and foot type, nylon stockings, towels and socks are generally selected in winter; Sweaty feet and cracked feet, choose cotton yarn or blended socks; Wear elastic card stockings and real stockings in summer; Wear thin elastic and mesh socks in spring and autumn. Women should wear stockings when wearing skirts. (2) the choice of size. The size of socks is based on the size of the bottom of socks (referring to the part from the heel of socks to the toes). The general size is indicated on the trademark. According to the length of the foot, it is better to choose the same or slightly larger size than the smaller size. (3) the choice of quality. 1 grade selection: socks are divided into first class, second class, third class (all qualified products) and off-grade according to their internal quality and appearance quality. Generally, first-class products are selected, and second-and third-class products can also be selected if the requirements are not high. 2. Selection of key parts: I) Choose socks with large heel and bag shape, as close as possible to people's feet. The size of the heel will cause the sock tube to sag, and the heel will slide to the bottom of the sock after wearing it. You can't try it on when you buy it. Just fold the sock surface and sock bottom in half from the middle line, and the ratio of sock surface to sock heel is generally 2: 3. II) Check the density elasticity of socks: the density of socks should be large, the width should be doubled when pulling horizontally, and the resilience is good. Its elasticity is small, and it is not easy to reset when pulled horizontally, which is also one of the reasons for the decline of socks. III) Check whether the sewing head interface is out of needle. Generally, sewing socks is another process. When sewing a needle, you will open your mouth when wearing it. When choosing, carefully observe whether the sewing needle is smoothly detached from the sewing head. IV) Check for holes or broken wires. Because socks are knitwear, they have certain ductility and elasticity, and generally broken wires and small holes are not easy to find. According to the process flow, the setting plate is easy to collide with other things to break wires or make holes. Therefore, when you buy, you should look at the shaping edge of the sole and the surface of the sock, and you can see it by gently pulling it horizontally. V) Check the length of socks. Because each pair of socks is optional, it is easy to have different lengths. Generally, the first-class products should not exceed 0.5CM between each pair. (4) The distinction between regular products and inferior products with miscellaneous brands. Large socks factory has advanced equipment, stable technology and excellent raw materials. Through the checks of each process, the quality is stable, which is manifested in the appearance, the fabric density is uniform and thick, the color is pure, the shape is good, and there are formal trademarks. Inferior products with miscellaneous brands are mostly due to simple equipment, manual operation, poor selection of raw materials, thin and uneven fabrics, low density, less luster, many defects, poor molding and no formal trademarks.
