ABSTRACT:
A hosiery article having a tubular upper leg portion, a lower foot portion, and a lower band interposed between the upper and lower portions. The lower band is operative to maintain the position of the upper portion relative to the mouth of a shoe. In this way, the band allows the upper portion of the hosiery article to be compressed without allowing the upper portion to enter the shoe. Preferably, the lower band protrudes outwardly. Additionally, an upper band is provided at the upper end of the upper portion to maintain the upper portion in a compressed position.
The upper leg portion is formed with a plurality of wide, crinkled ribs therein, providing a unique and desirable appearance.
