To wear comfortable stockings and make legs look beautiful are the attractive subjects for women of all ages. With the exception of summer season; almost all women wear hosiery: panty hoses; tights; knee-length socks and socks. In general; knitted fabric of hosiery has the advantage of being highly efficient at both stretching highly and fitting. In this study; a variety of women’s hosiery ate examined for their performance both under no deformation and deformed condition during wearing. One of purposes of this study is to compare the performance of various hosieries objectively. The other of purposes is to estimate the change of the performance by wearing deformation for each sort of hosiery. Deformation is observed in wearing test and given an account of stretch ratio values for wale and course directions. Compression property is measured first. Standard thickness; compression work and resilience values are recorded from the pressure-thickness relation curves. And air resistance and thermal conductance are measured by KES- AP1 and KES- THERMO- LABO II fabric testing instruments; respectively. In addition; sensory tests are carried out to examine affective disposition of women who choose stockings to acquire better aesthetic and comfort. Tests are held with several items; for example; tactile impressions of softness; thickness and smoothness; and visual impressions of transparency and degree of compression. In the tests questionnaires are used and judges are young women.
