I always wear a sheer sock with all my outfits :) I like the quality of this Oroblu brand. It is not too tight or loose. I order the Skin color and it looks a bit darker than what I expect. I return and get the Nude which is lighter and I love it!
I have wide calves, and I retain a lot of fluid in my legs. I wore these today to work (sit at desk all day) and they were amazing. They kept my legs so comfortable and warm, and I didn't have a problem with fluid today. The top part didn't cut into me like others do and they didn't fall down. Perfect, and reasonable price.
