Silkies are very nice, but don't seem to hold up well.

My very favorites, not seen them in years, was some that I used to steal from my mother back 25 or so years ago. I think they were leggs or JMS, but they had a full spande/nylon control panty that when they would ladder my mother would cut the legs out of them and wear the control panty for panties. They were the best and I'd give about anything to have at least one more pair of them.
