More new products!




1040 loose socks + 940 'buruma'
Loose Socks
As promised, we are continuing to add more products to our popular line of anime/manga/cosplay related items. This month, we are pleased to add our own version of the ever-popular 'Loose Socks', as seen in many anime and manga series over the years, most recently worn by cute heroine Misaka Mikoto of 'A Certain Scientific Railgun' fame. The Model 1040 Loose Socks are 100% cotton socks, but much longer than usual at about 90cm long, and designed to be worn bunched up around the lower leg and ankles. First appearing in the early 1990's, they continue to play a large part in the world of Cosplay. Plus, of course, they are a perfectly serviceable pair of thick, warm socks, made from high-quality fabric, which should last a very long time. They come in one size, which should suit the majority of wearers, either male or female, and retail at £9.99GBP per pair.

Also new this month, we have the new Model 0188 STW Dance Tights from Doyeah.
 
The 0188's are a sheer-to-waist style of glossy tights; they are a high-quality design comprising 82% Nylon and 18% elastane in 70 Denier wrapped Lycra yarn. They are designed for dancewear use, and have a single centre seam and small cotton gusset. They have a small area of reinforcement around the seams, and reinforced toes. They are heavier, more opaque and shiny than the 0178's introduced last month, plus they are more durable due to the wrapped Lycra fabric used.

New Anime/Manga Item! 'Shima-Pantsu'!

The new Model 355 'Shimapan' briefs from First4Legwear are a classic 'panty' design, but based on the famous 'Shimapan' (short for 'shima-pantsu'; Japanese for 'striped panties') which are known and loved by fans ('otaku') of Japanese 'anime' and 'manga' worldwide, as they are famously worn by many 'anime' heroines. They are a classic 'brief' style, and come in the popular blue/white horizontal stripe. Available in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL, they are made from soft, stretchy 95% cotton/ 5% Lycra, and are incredibly comfortable.
So whether you are a fan of Japanese animations or comics, or into 'cosplay', or just like striped briefs, these are the ones for you!

We are the only UK/European supplier of the famous 'Shima-pantsu'; why pay to ship them from Japan or the US when you can get them from us?!




They sell for a very reasonable £6.99 per pair. Get yours now!

New Products, and a new range!

Here at First4Legwear, we are always on the lookout for new and interesting products, and this month we have several, plus a new category we have not entered before; Anime, Manga and Cosplay-related items. We already have a couple of items which broadly fall into this category, but in future, we will be adding products specifically to this category.

The first such product is the new F4L 1020 striped opaque thigh-highs, known as 'shima-socksu' (Japanese for 'striped socks'), which are seen in many 'anime'  shows and manga comics. They come in one size, which will fit heights of up to 6ft (185cms), and three colourways; Blue/Black, Red/Black and Purple/Black. They are made from comfortable fabric comprising 97% nylon and 3% elastane, and seem to be quite durable. They are a 'stay-up' design, and as such do not require suspenders.

They are in stock now, and retail for a value-for-money £3.99 per pair.



Next is the new Doyeah 0918 10-denier sheer stockings. These are the first such product from Doyeah. They are made from the same shiny 10-denier, 86% nylon/14% elastane fabric as many of the Doyeah sheer tights, and our own model 440 STW's. They come in one size, which is suitable for heights of up to 6ft, and colours Beige, Tan, Bronze, Dark Nude, White, Grey and Black. They retail for a reasonable £5.99 per pair.

New Products! Thigh-Highs and Leggings

 We are pleased to announce the arrival in stock of two new products; the First4Legwear 1010 Opaque Thigh-Highs, and the 615 One-Size Leggings.

First the 1010 Thigh-Highs; we have been asked occasionally over the years for stockings and thigh-highs, but until recently, we felt there was insufficient demand to warrant carrying them on stock. However, in the last 12 months or so, we have been receiving more and more requests for them, so we decided to give it a go! We worked with the Chinese supplier who provides us with many of own own-brand and unisex products, and came up with the 1010's.

They come in one size, which is suitable for heights of up to 6ft (and we are able to confirm this!); they are opaque, 120 denier microfibre/elastane, and have cuffs at the tops of the legs (no suspenders or grip tape required!) and reinforced toes. They are essentially opaque tights without the panty section; they just stop at the tops of the wearer's legs. They are very comfortable, and seem to be durable too.

Made popular in recent years due to their being worn by many 'anime' and 'manga' heroines in the globally popular Japanese cartoons and comics, where they are known by the Japanese term 'ni-sokkusu' (literally 'knee-socks'); however, the 1010's do not need 'sock-tachi' (sock glue!) to keep them up. If you are a fan of anime or manga, you should check these out! Great for cos-play!

They are available in Black, Blue, Red, Purple, Yellow, Orange, White, and Beige(Skin-tone), and sell for a very reasonable £5.99 per pair. Get yours now!





 Secondly, the new 615 one-size, unisex leggings, come in a range of colours; Black, Grey, Sky Blue, Navy and Champagne. The fabric of the 615's is shiny and lightweight, and is very stretchy; we tested them on wearers up to 6ft in height, and they fitted with room to spare. They retail at £9.99 per pair, and are in stock now.
