Especially now after having worn the Oroblu's I can definitely appreciate the difference in quality and durability; I wore both pairs in the same environment under the same conditions, and the Hue were shredded in 20 minutes while the Oroblu's are going strong. </p> <p>The Target fishnets knee socks look adorable. Socks are much easier than stockings; they last longer for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-90040 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 11:38:12 +0000 yublocka 90040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Maya - really like the look of them Bella!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89777 Sun, 30 Aug 2009 01:19:26 +0000 Maya 89777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great Bella.

I am bummed I missed them at the NAS because I've been wanting to try them, and the price was also right then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89774 Sun, 30 Aug 2009 00:40:54 +0000 bella 89774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Maya,<br /> I purchased the knee high fishnets from Target today. Here they are:</p> <p><a href="http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o450/bella_cville/IMG_8195.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i343.photobucket.com/al.....G_8195.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o450/bella_cville/IMG_8200.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i343.photobucket.com/al.....G_8200.jpg</a></p> <p>And here they are on my feet:<br /> <a href="http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o450/bella_cville/IMG_8212.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i343.photobucket.com/al.....G_8212.jpg</a><br /> I wouldn't normally wear them with these shoes, which I just realized also need a thorough cleaning:)</p> <p>I think they are one size fits all. (Actually it says sizes 9-11 on the label but I couldn't find another pack for smaller size so I am guessing it's one size fits all.) I found them pretty soft and comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89760 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 22:29:08 +0000 Maya 89760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen's were the full length tights, but I tend to be rather careless with my hosiery, so it's probably in my best interest to avoid them. Though I have no idea how durable a pair from Target would be, but for $4.50 it seems worth a shot.</p> <p>The Merona mesh trouser socks are too opaque and not textured enough. They just look like regular trouser socks to me.</p> <p>This is the effect I'm after: <a href="http://www.barenecessities.com/Wolford-The-Twenties-Fishnet_product_Wolford11889.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.barenecessities.com.....d11889.htm</a></p> <p>I'll go to Target sometime this week when the weather isn't totally miserable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89759 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 20:59:23 +0000 April 89759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Target ones are the "Merona Trouser Socks Mesh."</p> <p>Oh, yes -- now I remember that Kristen was deeply unimpressed with the durability of the Hue fishnets. (Were they tights or knee highs? Seems like there would be a lot more tugging-on with tights, which might affect the tearing.) </p> <p>"Faux fishnet" seems like a texture rather than an actual net -- hard to picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89758 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 20:42:46 +0000 Maya 89758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, the Target link didn't work. I can't seem to find them on the website. Do you remember what they were called?</p> <p>Kristen actually tried the Hue ones and hated them. They started snapping and tearing almost immediately, so I have been avoiding them. I'm curious what exactly faux fishnet is though. Maybe it's more durable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89757 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 20:34:34 +0000 April 89757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, to me the DKNYs appear to be standard fishnets, not micros. </p> <p>I dont' know if these were the ones bella was referring to, but Target has these "net" ones that look micro-ish (they do have extra detail along with the net texture, though -- see what you think):<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/Socks-Intimates-Womens-Clothing-Women/b/ref=sc_fe_l_2/181-6005599-2689430?ie=UTF8&#038;node=1232896011" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Socks-In.....1232896011</a></p> <p>Hue makes something called "faux fishnet":<br /> <a href="http://www.lorisshoes.com/product.asp?lt=c&#038;catid=4997&#038;pfid=LDS08787" rel="nofollow">http://www.lorisshoes.com/prod.....d=LDS08787</a><br /> I couldn't tell from the photo, but usually department stores have a generous selection of Hue items so you could see them IRL. They also make these, which look very micro to me <a href="http://www.lorisshoes.com/product.asp?lt=c&#038;catid=4997&#038;pfid=LDS04613" rel="nofollow">http://www.lorisshoes.com/prod.....d=LDS04613</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89664 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 05:31:21 +0000 Maya 89664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did read that Bella and I promptly forgot! Thanks for reminding me. Do you remember what brand they were by chance? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89589 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 22:19:58 +0000 bella 89589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I don't know if you have seen it but I left a comment on your previous thread about micro fishnets with ballet flats. They have knee-high micro fishnets (perhaps slightly bigger but definitely not as big holes as on this one) for $4.99 a pack at Target. Each pack has 3 pairs in 3 different colors, nude, black and brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89580 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 21:03:28 +0000 Angie 89580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. Hard to say. I prefer a smaller hole because I'm used to Oroblu. But because they won’t stretch as much worn as knee-highs, the hole will automatically be smaller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89572 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 20:30:23 +0000 Maya 89572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I were getting full length hose, I would definitely not go for the DKNY ones. Too holey. I also prefer the tiny holes and the subtlety of the Wolford ones. I love the knee high ones they have too, but for my purposes, $25 is just not reasonable. It is very hard to find knee high microfishnets though. These were really the only options I found. When I did a Froogle search for them, I got some interesting results from stores that appear to cater to exotic dancers. Not so fab!</p> <p>Actually, when I compared the knee highs to the full length ones, the net appears to be thicker, which I'm not sure is what I want. I guess I will keep looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89559 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 20:07:04 +0000 Inge 89559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure Maya. To me they look more like regular fishnets, but I'm used to the Wolford Luxe 9 Net hose (super tiny fishnets, which I love!), so don't take my word for it.<br /> <a href="http://www.wolfordshop.nl/wolfordonlineboutiquenetherlands/ctl500000200/cp500004884/si500427620/cl2/Luxe-9-Net-Stay-Up" rel="nofollow">http://www.wolfordshop.nl/wolf.....et-Stay-Up</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-micro-fishnets#post-89547 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 19:33:31 +0000 Maya 89547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking of treating myself to some knee high fishnets to wear under pants and jeans with flats. I found 2 pairs: One is by DKNY and the other is by Wolford. The Wolford ones are more than I would spend on a pair of full length tights, while the DKNY ones are $9 each and have a promo of 3 for $15, which is pretty great because it means I can get all 3 colors (black, brown, and nude).</p> <p>However, I am concerned that the holes might be too big? They do not have a picture of the knee length ones on a model, but the full length version is probably similar and this is how it looks:</p> <p><a href="http://www.barenecessities.com/DKNY-Fishnet-Tights_product_DKNY0A074.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.barenecessities.com.....Y0A074.htm</a></p> <p>As I said, I will only be wearing these under pants and jeans, so only the foot will be showing. Yes? No? </p>
