Below, we’ve rounded up some of the top-rated styles—along with their standout reviews—that won’t immediately tear when you put them on, offer just the right amount of control, and are, most importantly, comfortable. Read on to see and shop the best pantyhose online.
“I ordered these Gloss Control Top Pantyhose when I became frustrated with some much more expensive pantyhose that lost shape within an hour of putting them on. These retain shape, fit really well, and are quite comfortable for control top pantyhose. I have them in black and bronze and the gloss is subtle and quite attractive. I whole heartily recommend!” –Nordstrom reviewer
“They last forever– I can wear them out in the freezing cold and they make my legs look GORGEOUS! So, so pretty on!”–Nordstrom reviewer
“Best pantyhose! Smooths every bump, but still very comfortable!” –Nordstrom reviewer

“‘These were as matte as they come and didn’t snag once, even puttering around the house barefoot and fighting the cat.”–Amazon reviewer
