| has gloss | eng: Hold-ups or stay-ups (in the USA also referred to as thigh highs) are stockings with a band of elastic sewn to the top, designed to hold the stockings up when worn, without the need for a garter belt or garters. However, as people's thighs vary considerably in thickness, stay-ups are prone to fall down, or conversely for the elastic to be uncomfortably tight, leaving red marks and possibly aggravating varicose veins. The elastic of the stay-ups can cause chafing. |

| has gloss | ita: Le autoreggenti sono calze di nylon lunghe fino alla coscia che terminano con una fascia, siliconata o elasticizzata, denominata balza che permette alla calza di star su da sola senza l'ausilio di un reggicalze o di una giarrettiera, e che può essere liscia oppure decorata solatamente a motivi floreali o, in minor misura, geometrici. La balza è di larghezza generalmente compresa tra i 3 e i 15 cm, ma la misura più comune si aggira intorno agli 8 cm. |

| has gloss | swe: Stay-ups (eng. stay up "stanna uppe") är damstrumpor som "stannar kvar" på låret på grund av en gummerad film, ofta av silikon, på insidan av kanten. Stay-ups lanserades för första gången 1954. Man kan säga att de kombinerar längden hos den traditionella damstrumpan med den större enkelhet som strumpbyxornas resår medför. |

| has gloss | zho: 大腿襪是一種長度到大腿中間以上的襪子，在襪口有鬆緊帶的設計；大部分是以絲襪材質製成，也有做成網襪的大腿襪。為了增加美感，頂端常會有蕾絲花紋的設計，強調女性穿著時的性感。因為大腿襪不像褲襪包覆女性的臀部，可以保持通風，對女性陰部衛生較佳，且不需要吊襪帶而更為方便；不過有時會有鬆緊帶失去彈性而讓襪子滑落的情況。這種大腿襪在英美通常被稱為「Hold-ups」或「Stay-ups」，若是襪口沒有鬆緊帶設計、必須使用吊襪帶固定的大腿襪通常稱為「Stocking」。 |
| lexicalization | zho: 大腿襪 |
