Product Information
Full details
The Ann Summers Plain Top Hold Ups are designed for women seeking a flawless leg finish and a secure fit without the need for suspenders. The key benefit is the enhanced comfort and smooth appearance provided by the silicone strips and glossy finish. A potential consideration is the material, which is silk-based for this specific variant, requiring gentle care. These hold-ups feature a colour-matching plain top welt for a seamless look, a barely-there nude and glossy finish for instantly flawless-looking legs, and silicone strips around the thigh to keep them firmly in place.

FAQs
How do I know which size to choose?
Refer to the Ann Summers sizing guide provided: X Small for UK sizes 4-6, Small for 8-10, Medium for 12-14, Large for 16-18, and X Large for 20-22.
Can I wear these with shorts?
Yes, they can be worn with shorts, but the silicone band needs to sit comfortably on the thigh without being constricted by tight waistbands of the shorts.
How long does the silicone grip typically last?
With proper care and hand washing, the silicone grip should maintain its effectiveness for a significant number of wears. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat.
What is the difference between this silk variant and nylon ones?
The silk variant offers a more luxurious feel and potentially a softer sheen, while nylon variants might offer slightly more durability and a different type of finish. Care instructions may also differ.
Can I wear these daily?
Yes, they are designed for regular wear. However, daily use will lead to gradual wear and tear. Rotating with other pairs can extend their lifespan.
How do I care for the silk material?
Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing, bleaching, and tumble drying to preserve the delicate silk fibres.
Troubleshooting
Hold-ups slipping down
Ensure the silicone band is positioned correctly on clean, dry skin. Avoid applying lotions or oils to the thigh area before wearing.
Silicone band causing irritation
Check for any snags or damage to the silicone band. Ensure the size is correct; a size too small may cause the band to dig in.
Fabric snag or ladder
Handle with extreme care to avoid snags. If a small ladder appears, stop wearing the hold-ups to prevent further damage. Store carefully to avoid catching on jewellery or rough surfaces.
Hold-ups feel too tight
Verify you have selected the correct size according to the Ann Summers size guide. A size up may be more comfortable if the current fit is restrictive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These hold-ups are designed for immediate wear. Simply roll them down, position the silicone band around your thigh, and gently unroll them upwards to ensure the silicone adheres smoothly to your skin.
Compatibility:
The Plain Top Hold Ups are compatible with most outfits, including dresses, skirts, and tunics. For optimal grip, ensure the skin on your thighs is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions, as these can interfere with the silicone's adherence. This specific silk variant may not be suitable for very humid conditions if maximum grip is desired.

- Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent.
- Do not bleach.
- Do not tumble dry.
- Do not iron.
- Do not dry clean.
- Reshape and dry flat away from direct heat.
