A Brief History of Stockings References to stockings go back as early as the Ancient Greeks and it was generally the Men that wore the stockings, right the way throughout the 18th Century. But the stockings that we are more familiar with today generally are from the World War I era. The
first type of popular stockings were the Silk Stockings and Cotton Stockings
became popular in the 16th Century. But in the 1930's Nylon was introduced
and Stockings started to be made from this material and completely replaced
the silk stockings. In the 1960's they usually had Seams which are generally
viewed as the most Classic Type Stocking and are still very desirable
today. The Nylon stockings were given heels and toes. But also in the
1960's Stockings got their first piece of tough competition - the TIGHTS
or PANTYHOSE! .
