What are Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings?

Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings are traditional 1950s-style stockings made from 100% nylon and knitted flat before being sewn with a back seam. Their defining feature is the Cuban heel; a high; squared-off heel reinforcement that creates a bold, structured finish at the back of the ankle. This distinctive shape sets them apart from other heel styles and gives a strong, vintage-correct silhouette.

What is the difference between a Cuban heel and a point heel stocking?

The difference lies in the shape of the heel reinforcement. A Cuban heel is squared and rises higher up the back of the ankle, creating a more graphic and defined look. A point (or French) heel is more delicate and tapers to a point, offering a softer, more refined appearance. Cuban heels are typically considered bolder and more dramatic, while point heels are subtler and more understated.

Why were Cuban heel stockings popular in the 1950s?

Cuban heel stockings became popular in the 1950s as part of the era’s emphasis on polished, structured glamour. The bold heel shape complemented the visible back seam and helped accentuate the line of the leg. At a time when stockings were a daily essential, details like heel shape became an important part of fashion and personal style.

Are Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings different from modern seamed stockings?

Yes, they are very different. Fully fashioned stockings are made from non-stretch 100% nylon and are shaped during knitting to fit the leg, whereas modern seamed stockings are made on circular machines with elastane for stretch. Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings offer a more authentic vintage look and feel, but require careful sizing and handling due to their delicate, non-stretch construction.

How do you wear Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings?

Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings must be worn with a suspender (garter) belt, as they do not have elastic to hold themselves up. The seam should be positioned straight along the back of the leg, with the Cuban heel sitting neatly at the ankle. Because they are non-stretch, achieving the correct size and careful adjustment is key to getting a smooth, flattering fit.

Why are Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings considered special?

Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings are prized for their authenticity, craftsmanship, and rarity. They are made using traditional methods on vintage-style machinery, with each stocking shaped and finished to replicate original 1950s production. Their combination of delicate nylon, precise fit, and distinctive heel design makes them one of the most iconic and sought-after styles in vintage hosiery.

Für wahre Nylon-Liebhaberinnen stellen unsere Cuban Heel Echte Nahtnylons (Fully Fashioned) das Nonplusultra der Vintage-Strümpfe dar. Hergestellt auf originalen Reading-Strickmaschinen aus den 1950er Jahren, werden diese Strümpfe nach den anspruchsvollen Standards des Mid-Century-Glamours gefertigt und bieten einen authentischen Look und ein Tragegefühl, das mit modernen Techniken nicht nachzuahmen ist.

Auf einen Blick:

Denier	Transparent, 15 Denier
Für Oberschenkelumfang bis	25" (63,5cm)
Materialzusammensetzung	100% Nylon
Herstellungsland	Vereinigtes Königreich

Das charakteristische Merkmal dieser klassischen Strümpfe ist die Cuban Heel – eine markante, eckige Ferse, die am Knöchel hoch ansteigt und einen starken, strukturierten Abschluss bildet, der die rückwärtige Naht perfekt ergänzt. Glatt, verführerisch und unverkennbar vintage – dies ist der ultimative Strumpfstil für alle, die unter dem Saum ein wenig mehr Dramatik lieben.

Hinweis zu Passform und Verfügbarkeit

Wie alle Echte Nahtnylons (Fully Fashioned) sind auch diese Modelle empfindlich und größenabhängig, konzipiert für einen traditionellen Vintage-Größenbereich. Aufgrund der Seltenheit der Originalmaschinen und begrenzter Produktionskapazitäten können wir derzeit leider keine erweiterten Größen anbieten – wir wissen, wie frustrierend das ist.

Wenn Sie am unteren Ende der Größenbereichs für Ihre Körpergröße liegen, empfehlen wir, eine Nummer kleiner zu wählen, um die beste Passform zu erzielen.

Perfekt für Pin-up-Shootings, Abendgarderobe oder um Ihrem Alltag einen Hauch von Vintage-Glanz zu verleihen: Unsere Cuban Heel Echte Nahtnylons (Fully Fashioned) sind ein glamouröses Must-have für jede Retro-Garderobe – stolz gefertigt in Großbritannien und tief verwurzelt in der authentischen Strumpfgeschichte.

Cuban heel

I love these Cuban heel stockings

Love at first wear

Bought them as a surprise gift for my wife. She absolutely loved them. She said they fit very well and are more beautiful and comfortable than any other brand (including vintage).

From my point of view it was very easy to pick the right size, even though I didn't know what size she had from other brands (but I remember her saying it wasn't as straightforward with other brands).

For years constant high quality

Shopping for 10+ years at WKD. Throughout all items are highest quality standards, hold up what promised and packed with love.

Excellent

A gift for all

I gave these as a gift to a very fastidious Aritoc Tango wearer, she loved them.

Smooth sailing

Absolutely gorgeous

Purchased for my GF for a 40s weekend. Great quality and looked stunning

These beautifully constructed stockings fit my long legs perfectly. I’m 6 feet.
