It’s time for another visit to the Nylon Jungle, where ferociously sexy women roam free and show off their stunning legs in nylons, tights, and pantyhose. The resurgence of nylon in recent years is enough to make this old softie feel all warm and fuzzy. You see, growing up during the heyday of hose, when generational crushes like Catherine Bach and Joyce Dewitt, among others, showed off their lovely, pantyhose-encased legs on popular TV shows, movies, and commercials—often times because studio execs made them cover their legs with hose, lest audiences be scandalized by bare legs—made many a Gen Xer forever powerless against a woman in shiny, smooth nylons. Nylons were largely out of style for a long time, so it’s been good to see them making a huge comeback in recent years. Here are some images, both old and new, of women wielding the seductive power of nylon with extreme prejudice. Have mercy, ladies.
