What makes Glamory hosiery different
Glamory fills a gap in the market: hosiery that is developed for larger sizes, rather than standard sizes simply knitted bigger.
- Fit for larger sizes: the brief section, thigh width, waistband length and material are tailored to larger sizes, and for men's tights to the male anatomy as well.
- Tested fit: every new style goes through several rounds of prototypes, fittings and test wearers before it goes on sale.
- European production: long-standing partnerships with knitting mills in Europe stand for consistent quality.
“Larger sizes had always been missing from the market. We wanted to close that gap, so we specialised in them right from the start,” says founder and managing director Sven Bork. You can read the full conversation in our interview with Sven Bork.
