RHT — short for Reinforced Heel and Toe — stockings were the first seamless nylons to be produced when circular knitting machines evolved enough to create sheer fabric without a seam. Though first introduced in 1949, it wasn’t until the 1960s, when the fit was perfected, that they became a wardrobe staple for women who preferred a smooth, modern look over fully fashioned seams.

Made in Italy from soft stretch 20 denier nylon, our Allure RHT Stockings offer a flawless fit. The reinforced heel and toe provide durability while adding a true vintage finish.

Whether worn with a little black dress or your favourite suspender belt, these black RHT stockings — or black RHT nylons, as they were once called — bring understated glamour to everyday wear.

Owen O. ★★★★★

The matte black finish looks just like the vintage 60s photos, and the reinforced heel and toe held up through a full day of meetings and subway stairs. These fit exactly as the size chart promised, which is rare for stockings.

Kevin T. ★★★★★

The reinforced heel and toe are exactly what I wanted for everyday wear without worrying about snags. They hug nicely and the black shade is deep and true, giving that classic 60s silhouette I was after.

Carter ★★★★★

Slipping these on felt instantly retro—the 20 denier weave is sheer but sturdy, and the reinforced heel and toe mean they're not delicate novelties. They hug the leg well past the knee without sagging, which is rare for nylon this fine. Definitely my new go-to for a polished look.
