Universal Fame for Wear
MEN who wear Holeproof Hosiery appreciate the meaning of Ex Toe reinforcement... the undetectable extra threads of strength woven in at the toe. This Ex Toe reinforcement imparts three times more wear to these exquisite silk stockings..
And Holeproof colours are always new-even in advance because they are continually changed by the hand of Lucile herself at Paris. Don't forget that no other hosiery can offer this Lucile service. It is an exclusive Holeproof feature.
