Category: RHT Stockings

Warm, rich, and deliciously retro, our Mocha Semi Opaque RHT Tights channel the practical sophistication of service weight hosiery once favoured by working women in the 1950s and 1960s.

Key Features:

Colour Brown
Details RHT, light support
Sizing Fits up to UK size 18 / US 14
Fabric info Officially 70 denier
Fabric composition 78% nylon, 22%  elastane
Country of manufacture Italy

Knitted in Italy from 78% polyamide and 22% Lycra, they have a soft, stretchy fit that offers gentle light support — ideal for long days on your feet. The mesh-style knit gives them the lightly textured appearance typical of vintage hosiery, while the higher denier yarn (officially 70) appears closer to 40 when worn, offering a semi opaque, “demi matte” look.

The reinforced heel and toe add both durability and authentic period detail, making these tights a superb choice for WWII reenactors or anyone who loves the look of true mid-century hosiery.

(Note the factory is no longer making this colour way so when the stock is gone it is gone!)

In a deep chocolate brown shade, these Mocha service weight tights are endlessly versatile — elegant with tweed and wool for daytime wear or beautifully warm paired with autumnal tones.

Abigail F. ★★★★★

These took me right back to the vintage stockings my grandmother wore—the service weight knit feels sturdy and substantial, not flimsy at all. They’re the perfect warm mocha shade for fall, and the semi-opaque finish gives that classic 60s look without being too sheer.

Riley ★★★★★

The color is exactly that rich mocha brown, and the semi-opaque weave gives them a nice, sturdy feel without being too heavy. I wore them for a full workday and they held their shape, no sagging at the knees.

Victoria D. ★★★★★

These feel like they were pulled from my grandmother’s best era—proper service weight with a retro sheen that looks amazing under wool skirts. The rich mocha tone is deep enough to read as a true color but still lets skin show through subtly. Wore them through a full cold day and they held their sha
