They feature a silicone-lined lace garter top that helps hold the stockings in place without suspenders, as well as reinforced toes for durability. With a 15 denier knit, they offer a semi-transparent, sheer appearance for everyday wear.

Product Insights
The Sublim Shiny Stay-Ups by DIM are fully sheer 15-denier stay-ups with a glossy shine and bare-leg look, priced at 18 CAD—about 55% less than Pretty Polly Minimalist and 66% less than Wolford Flavia. They feature a reinforced toe, silicone-lined lace garter, and 85% polyamide/15% elastane knit that resists bagging and tears, with OEKO-TEX certification. However, the grip holds only on bare dry skin at mid-thigh with the band folded outward; hand washing cold and wiping silicone with rubbing alcohol is required. Size 1 fits heights 4 ft 9 in to 5 ft 7 in and weight 110 to 132 lb.
Verified claims
- Grip conditions
- Grip holds only on bare dry skin at mid-thigh with band folded outward
- Care
- Hand wash cold with a mild detergent and air dry flat away from direct heat; avoid fabric softeners and tumble-drying, and wipe the silicone band with rubbing alcohol to restore grip.
- Run protection
- Even pressure from silicone band prevents runs in sheer fabric.
- Competitor pricing
- Costs roughly 55% less than Pretty Polly Minimalist ($40) and 66% less than Wolford Flavia (£34.99).
- Leg appearance
- Fully sheer 15-denier stay-ups with a deliberate glossy shine for a bare-leg look.
- Fit
- Includes a reinforced toe, 15% elastane for shape retention, and a silicone-lined lace garter; size 1 packaging specifies a height and weight range for the smallest option.
- Fabric performance
- The 85% polyamide and 15% elastane knit resists bagging and tears despite being fully sheer.
- Durability features
- The reinforced toe and silicone-lined garter reduce friction and stress at common run points.
- Lab testing
- OEKO-TEX certified cotton is tested for 1,000+ harmful substances (Class II) and annually re-audited.
- Color
- Gazelle is a warm brown-nude designed for a natural leg shade.
- Sizing
- Size 1 fits heights 4 ft 9 in to 5 ft 7 in and weight 110 to 132 lb.
- Donning
- Fold silicone band outward when pulling on to prevent rolling down.
- Wear
- Wear on dry skin at mid-thigh, folding band outward when donning.
- Sheer and shine
- Fully sheer 15 denier with a glossy, noticeable shine.
- All-day hold
- For secure all-day wear, position the silicone band at mid-thigh: too high creates a bulge that strains the band, while too low puts the grip on a part of the leg where it naturally slips.
- Skin safety certification
- The stay-ups' finished cotton gusset is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, meaning it is tested as a product-safety label for freedom from harmful residues; the certification does not mean the cotton is organic.

Evening out or date night
Dress up a skirt or dress for a night out with these glossy stay-ups, which reviewers report have a high-shine, classy look suited to special occasions. According to reviews, the silicone grip keeps them in place without sagging or rolling through a full evening.[1]
Comfortable stay-ups for long workdays
Customers report these DIM Shiny Stay-Ups stay comfortable through 8+ hour workdays, with a silicone grip that helps prevent rolling or slipping and no pinching after hours of wear. The soft, non-irritating fabric means you can focus on your day instead of adjusting your stockings, according to reviewer feedback.[1]
A travel pair that can go more than one wear
Heading out on a trip? According to an analysis of customer reviews, these stay-ups held up across multiple wears when packed in a laundry bag, which meant travelers could bring fewer pairs. This comes from a single reported experience rather than a tested guarantee.[1]
Reusing your stay-ups with gentle washing
According to an analysis of customer reviews, these DIM Sublim Shiny Stay-Ups can be worn more than once when washed with care. Reviewers reportedly put them in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle to avoid damage and keep the glossy finish, and some report they keep their look over several wears this way.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Sublim Shiny Stay-Ups: Choose these 15 denier stay-ups if you want a glossy, sheer thigh-high for evenings or special occasions — reviews describe a high-shine, classy look, and a silicone-lined lace garter is reported to keep them in place without rolling or pinching through long days and nights. They come in Black and Gazelle across sizes 1 to 4, with a reinforced toe and a soft stretch nylon blend (85% polyamide, 15% elastane). Note that reviews say they need careful washing in a laundry bag on gentle cycle to keep their look, and the 'Poivre' shade is discontinued, so check current color options before ordering.[1] | Sublim Satiny Pantyhose 15 Denier - Ultra-Fine: Choose this if you want an ultra-fine 15 denier sheer pantyhose with a subtle satiny sheen and firm yet comfortable support for office or daily wear, evening events, or days when you want moderate compression with stretch that conforms without digging in. It fits true to size, has reinforced toes with a stop-run feature, and is made in France from an 87% polyamide and 13% elastane blend. Note that reviews are mixed on durability and finish: the fine fabric can snag easily on sharp edges like fingernails or rings, and some customers find the sheen less glossy than a true satin look.[2,3,4,5] | Sublim Matte Voile Pantyhose 15 Denier - Ultra-Fine: Choose this if you want an ultra-sheer 15 denier pantyhose with a matte finish for a natural, bare-skin look — reviewers note it feels weightless and undetectable, works well for daily office wear, and stays smooth under clingy, form-fitting outfits. Made in France from a stretch nylon blend (88% polyamide, 12% elastane) with a stretch waistband and a more opaque high-rise panty panel, it comes in three nude shades: Natural Ivory, Natural Sand, and Natural Tan. Note that some reviews say the sizing runs small and the toe seam can dig in during all-day wear if the fit is snug, especially at the upper end of the size range — sizing up usually resolves it.[6,7] |
