Designed for young Chinese girls by Sina Weibo, these quirky hairy stockings were created as a preventative measure to help girls ward off unwanted advances from suitors.
These hairy stockings were created to look like women's legs that have gone days -- maybe even months -- unshaven. Designed like leggings, these stubbly tights start at the hips and stop at the ankle. When these tights made from synthetic hair and nude tights are worn, they really do make your legs look hairy. These hairy stockings are made to look very unappealing when worn with shorts, skirts or dresses.
Tapping into the stigma that some men are weirded out by women with unshaved legs, young girls who wear these protective hairy stockings shouldn't have any fear of unwanted men approaching them.
