10 denier or less | Ultra sheer | Extremely elegant, cooler in summer, can give the illusion of bare legs when wearing the correct skin tone |
10 to 20 denier | Semi sheer | Elegant and practical for everyday or evening wear. The most popular denier range, giving even coverage to legs. Stronger than ultra sheer. |
25 to 35 denier | Semi – opaque | Still elegant for dressy occasions, stronger, longer lasting and slightly warmer than sheers. |
40 denier or more | Opaque | Very durable and long lasting. Practical for everyday use. Warmer and ideal for cooler weather. Offers complete cover for the leg. |
