I understand the use of the control top, but why does it continue down the leg and stop mid calf?
And incidentally, buying clothes at Amazon is just weird. I miss the days when Amazon was just a book store. Now there's like nothing you can't buy at Amazon. It's worse than Wal*Mart. But I guess that's what America wants.

Oh dammit. This has become one of those loooooong threads because the link was so long. Sorry!
You can help make it more bareable by hitting return at the end of every line in your reply window. This will be a recurring problem if we keep showing each other outfits. Which is fun.
Oh and also, my header is improper grammar. I should have said: What exactly is the point of these? I should have been an English teacher. I could have really driven the kids nuts.

I've seen those silly looking things in stores and I agree, pointless! Well, I imagine women would wear such an item purely for the control top "benefit." However, if you are wearing anything that's not skintight (a skirt suit, pants, whatever) it is virtually impossible for a casual observer to notice ANY difference in your leg's shape and/or firmness. The effect is negligible and probably not worth the extra effort/expense. It's like those times you struggle for 20 minutes with your hair and deem it a hopelessly awful hair day and no one notices the difference.
As for Amazon....I think I'll stick to buying CDs. Clay Aiken's first album should be out this year!
Aigh....I didn't do the spacing thing. Too early for cognitive thought...forgive me.

I wouldn't wear them, but I think their main purpose is to give you the bare, stockingless look while still affording you the support of control hose. Particularly in summer, certain types of dress/sandal combinations look better or more appropriate sans hose. So here's a way to get that nice casual look and still have support.
I wear a bike shorts shaped "shaper" under many of my dresses for support. They're pretty comfy (cotton) and better than these hose, and do the same thing.
yeah, I can imagine people wearing it under summer dresses or skirts.. or possibly really tight capris? It doesn't seem too odd to me..
On the subject of amazon.. I knew they opened a clothing section.. but I had no idea they incorporated Nordstrom's things.. I mean, Nordstrom being a big department store and all..
