For true nylon aficionados, our Cuban Heel Fully Fashioned Stockings represent the pinnacle of vintage hosiery.

The defining feature of these classic stockings is the Cuban heel – a bold, squared-off rectangular heel that rises high at the ankle, creating a strong, structured finish that perfectly complements the back seam. Sleek, sultry, and undeniably vintage, this is the ultimate stocking style for those who love a little extra drama below the hemline.
A Note on Fit and Availability
Like all fully fashioned stockings, these are delicate and size-specific, designed to fit a traditional vintage size range. Due to the rarity of the original machinery and production limitations, we’re unable to offer extended sizes at this time – though we know how frustrating this is.
If you’re at the lower end of the height range for your size, consider sizing down for the best fit.
Perfect for pin-up shoots, evening wear, or adding an extra touch of vintage polish to your day, our Cuban heel fully fashioned stockings are a glamorous essential for any retro wardrobe – proudly made in Britain, and steeped in authentic hosiery history.

Fully Fashioned and RHT Stockings
Fully Fashioned and RHT stockings are made from none stretch nylon (although they do have a little mechanical stretch which means although the yarn is officially none stretch, there is some 'give'). This makes selecting the size far more critical than with modern hosiery which contains elastane or lycra for stretch.
They're stockings are made to fit the average dress sized 12 to 16 woman (8-12 US, 40-44 European). If you are smaller than this please try the size below, if larger please go up one size. Please do not be tempted to go up more than one size as these stockings are non stretch nylon and this will lead to wrinkly ankles!
