Gio
Gio are one of only two remaining companies in the UK producing fully fashioned stockings, and are much beloved by loyal brand followers.
"First introduced from the United States in the 1940’s, Full Fashioned Nylons were the ultimate gift from a man to his sweetheart, and have remained unrivalled in this enduring quality ever since! These iconic and evocative hosiery products are still being lovingly made on a handful of Reading Fully Fashioned knitting machines of which the Gio brand products are knitted on some of the last frames to be built by Textile Machine Work USA prior to their effective closure in the mid 1960’s."
