How do you wear pantyhose in summer heat?
I am one of the people who wear pantyhose all year round. In the summer, you can still enjoy the benefits of pantyhose but you have to choose a very sheer pair of pantyhose. They may be called ultra-sheer, very sheer or summer pantyhose. Summer pantyhose range around 5-15 denier and the materials used and the way they're woven together makes your skin breathe through this pantyhose, also helping in evaporating your sweat. So this kind of pantyhose not only doesn't make you sweat but helps you feel cooler when the weather is hot. Perfect for a summer's night out. Since this type of hosiery is very sheer, it's very delicate and some brands have released pantyhose with increased durability and ladder-free characteristics.

What is more durable 600-denier duralite or 1800 denier polyester?
I am assuming you are talking about a fabric made from either 1200 or 600 denier yarn. The thickness of the yarn in 1200 denier is twice that of 600 denier, which also implies the fabric will be rougher and ofcourse stronger. If you are looking for strength, 1200 is better. If you want a smoother finish fabric, choose the 600 denier. Hope this helps. Deviprasad
