Unbreakable Pantyhose 20 Denier - Fine
Unbreakable Pantyhose 20 Denier - Fine is a sheer-to-waist hosiery style from Silks at Simons, made with a blend of 70% nylon and 30% spandex with a cotton-lined gusset and a wide stretch waistband. Designed for everyday wear, it provides a smooth, semi-sheer look in size range A–E. While the product is promoted as run-resistant, several customer reviews note that the fabric is fragile and not truly unbreakable.

Product Insights
The Silks Unbreakable Pantyhose 20 Denier ($12) promises durable XTRALIFE Lycra that resists chlorine, sunscreen, and heat, yet customer reviews report early tears within a few wears, resulting in a 1.7-star rating. It offers more coverage than ultra-sheer options and a wide waistband without shaping, but costs four times Silks’ basic 20-denier which shares similar run risk. While it outperforms basic tights and L'eggs, Sheertex provides stronger rip resistance at three times the price, making this product a tradeoff between upgraded material durability and actual longevity.
Verified claims
- Lifespan
- All three 1.7-star reviews describe early tears within a few wears.
- Value
- At $12, it costs four times more than Silks' basic 20-denier ($3), yet both share similar run risk.
- Durability
- Early runs contrast with Sheertex's guaranteed rip-resistance.
- Sheerness
- More coverage than ultra-sheer 8-denier at similar price.
- Fit and support
- Lacks control top but offers sizes A-D for average body types.
- Care
- Blot dry, moisturize before wear, and seal runs with clear polish to extend life.
- Material
- 70% nylon, 30% spandex with cotton gusset and XTRALIFE Lycra that resists chlorine/sunscreen/heat, unlike the $3 basic version.
- Fit and handling
- Choose correct size to prevent overstretching; wide waistband reduces adjustments that snag fabric.
- Waistband
- Wide stretch waistband holds securely without compression or shaping.
- XTRALIFE Lycra
- Resists chlorine, sunscreen, and heat, keeping elasticity longer for less sagging and runs.
- Competitive context
- Beats $3 Silks basic and L'eggs; Sheertex offers stronger rip resistance at 3x price.
- Customer experience
- 1.7-star rating - buyers report runs and tears after a few wears.
- Shaping
- Purely sheer 20-denier with no shaping or compression.
- Positioning
- Durable XTRALIFE Lycra upgrade ($12) over basic ($3); Beautiful Plus ($11) targets curvy comfort.
- Fit style
- Non-compression sheer waistband, contrasted with Beautiful Plus's curvy comfort.

Beau mais fragile
Très beau et doux au toucher, mais on maillé dès le premier essai
Malheureusement pas indéchirable
Au premier essai, le collant a déchiré au niveau de la taille. . .
Wouldn’t buy again
Not true to size. Fits very small. And right away when I put them on there was a hole.
