LYCRA® SATIN SHEERS technology
Creates durable stockings with a soft, satiny touch and subtle sheen
Why choose LYCRA® SATIN SHEERS technology?
The challenge:
For many years there was no standard or detailed specifications on how to produce durable, quality hosiery that gives legs an ultra-smooth appearance and a subtle sheen.
The solution:
LYCRA® SATIN SHEERS technology was the first platform to specify the characteristics necessary to produce quality sheer hosiery. In fact, its name became synonymous with the description for transparent hosiery. LYCRA® SATIN SHEERS technology is a knitting construction that specifies which covered yarns to use to reach a high degree of transparency without sacrificing durability.
