HAVE YOU GAUGEITIS?
Don't Have
GAUGEITIS!
Many women de
mand 51-gauge stock
ings' They believe in
demanding this gauge
they are obtaining the
sheer hose they de
sire. What they really
want is 5 0- denier
sheers. If sheer hosi
e r y is wanted, 45
gauge can be more
sheer than 51.
Gauge refers only to
the type of machine on
which hose are knitted,
while denier means
thread weight. The
lower the denier, the
more sheer the stock
ing. In many instances
the hose are thinner in
a 45-gauge because the
fabric is more loosely
knit in a lower gauge,
resulting in a sheerer
effect.
#
This information is
imparted to our cus
tomers in order that
they may avoid ‘gauge
itis’ and obtain the
most satisfaction from
their hosiery pur
chases.
