Hose, Ponte de Roma - STOCK

Easy care, non-sag, colourfast and available in a wide range of colours, these are perfect for actors, musicians, LARPers and anyone who wants the look of a period garment in a more affordable and easy care version.  

Fabric is a thick rayon/nylon double knit usually used for trousers and leggings. Hand finished, no visible exterior machine stitching.

Before ordering, measure yourself with a tape measure as follows and include the measurements in the 'Comments' section of the order form:

• Waist- Low over hips where jeans or your belt sit.  Hold tape snug but not tight.
• Inseam- From high in crotch along inside leg to floor, barefoot.
• Shoe size (US size if possible)

Regarding fit- Ordering from your exact measurements will give you hose that fit very comfortably. They will be a bit loose and fit much like modern sweatpants. They may also have some wrinkles around knees and ankles.  If you'd like the hose to fit very tightly, consider ordering a waist size 1"-3" smaller than your measurements indicate. Hose are cut high enough to stay up as shown without being pointed to a support garment.

Available as stock item in limited waist and inseam, in limited colors.
