Oroblu Choices


  • I am a male who is also a fan of Oroblu. I usually wear Juzo Soft Pantyhose 20-30 mmHg, which is a medical compression pantyhose. I also sometimes like wear Oroblu over top as a second layer. Pants glide better over consumer pantyhose than courser medical pantyhose. There is also a unique feeling of having a second layer.

    I am planning on buying more pantyhose soon. Can you please comment on the following options:

    1. Intense 50: https://www.shapings.com/products/intense-50-tights
    2. Overlook 70 https://www.shapings.com/products/overlook-70-tights
    3. Different 80: https://www.shapings.com/products/different-80-tights
    4. Chantal 120: https://www.shapings.com/products/chantal-120-tights

     

    I understand the higher numbers imply greater opaqueness because of the higher denier value.

    Do some fit better than others? Are some more comfortable then others? Is there anything that would cause you to favor some more than the others?



  • @River I'm not sure about the fit or comfort as I've never worn any of those before. Just going by what Shapings is showing I'd go with either the Different 80's or the Chantal 120's. I just like how they look in the pictures and I think it's closer to the support den of pantyhose you currently wear. Just my 2 cents! 


  • @PJ Thank you. I am likley to order a couple or few pairs of each offering. You are correct in that they higher denier will be a closer match of the medical hosiery. In reality, that does not matter too much because the Oroblu will be a second layer. It need not match. One benefit, however, of a higher denier is that it will hide or mask my medical hosiery underneath. A detriment, however, is that in the summer, two pairs of high denier pantyhose may be warmer than I want. I may need to look at some 20 denier pantyhose when the weather turns warmer.
