Not as good as they used to be

No, I don't recommend this

Don’t know whether M&S have changed supplier, but these hold ups definitely don’t hold up. I have been buying these for years, however recent buys have all been the same, they don’t stay up and roll down shortly after being put on. Something has changed as they aren’t as good as they used to be and aren’t fit for purpose.

Not bad/Not good

No, I don't recommend this

These are very hit and miss. M&S don't seem to be able to fix the grippy part, it either rips or rolls. However, they're the only reliably available and affordable option, hence the 3/5

Very long in the leg

Yes, I recommend this

I have used M&S hold ups for years. I’m 5ft tall and the size S is great. I like these thicker holdups they are so much more comfortable than opaque tights but the leg length is much longer. They were bordering on too long.

Hold ups that don't stay in place

No, I don't recommend this

Very disappointed about this purchase. The hold ups don't stay in place and keep rolling and falling down. Wouldn't recommend!

Love these but not as good a choice these days.

Yes, I recommend this

I used to get these regularly but haven't had any for a while, there used to be quite a few different designs but tgeuscaooeaescticbecni longer. I've got a lot more skirts these days which is why I've bought them, would have been better if they had been 60 denier instead of 40, especially as its winter.

Quality has changed

No, I don't recommend this

I've been wearing these for years and years. Always get a new stock as we get into winter and get lots of wear out of them (though couldn't find them in store this year, had to order online). For the first time ever, I put my toe through 2 lots on the 1st wear, and on one occasion I walked into town on my lunch hour and one leg lost grip and was constantly falling down to my knee! As this has never happened before I can only assume they've made a change to quality of the materials. Thinner toes and cheaper material for the grip strips.

Fit not great

No, I don't recommend this

Unfortunately the top of one hold up was very baggy and kept slipping down below my knee. Apart from that the actual "stocking" part was fine.

40 Denier Holdups

Yes, I recommend this

Haven't worn these as yet but have bought these before As long as I don't catch them in the zip of my long boots, I should have them for years They dey have hold up staying power with a good comfortable grip and the tops are invisible when I'm wearing a skirt, I munch prefer them to tights and provide the sheerness and freedom that I require. Sizing is great so buy your usual size in hosiery Will be buying them again, when needed

Hold ups which don’t stay up!

No, I don't recommend this

These hold ups are really soft and warm but on me they tend to not stay up and roll over at the top. I think this is a bad design unlike hold ups of old with a single band to grip these have several thin gripping bands with gaps in between which makes it easy to roll up!

They really do Hold Up!

Yes, I recommend this

These Hold-Ups are great! I'm a slim size 14 and 5ft 6ins and I ordered the Medium. The Hold-Ups fit perfectly and ... guess what? They actually hold up!
