'For much of the 20th century, pantyhose were an essential component of any polished woman's outfit. But then, many Gen X and Boomers stopped wearing pantyhose years ago, dismissing them as uncomfortable and easily ruined by runs. Most Millennial women have never even worn them, and thanks to more casual office wear, they don't need to in most offices.' The majority of the leading brands of pantyhose and nylons in the United States have to struggle with this development. Therefore the market needs a new innovation, which will be described in the following paper.
