American Apparel’s Coming Soon section shows products that will be sold by the retailer in the near future. Along with an oversized hair bow, a shiny vinyl weekend bag, and a nylon spandex micro-mesh long sleeve button-up, the store is planning to offer “sheer luxe cut-out pantyhose.” The name is misleading. It’s not like these tights have a fancy cut-out pattern in them. No, there isn’t anything covering the wearer’s ass. I guess American Apparel knows what its clientele wants?

@rsonnack, I couldn’t agree more.
Can anyone explain the point??? Why not just wear nylons and garters? You don’t have to fight with the cut-outs for your cheeks to fit or over the pouch in front…

what the hell are those? my 2 least favorite things, combined into one torture gadget-a butt-picking wedgie and crotch rotting pantyhose—a guy had to have designed these!

If that is to avoid panty lines, the designer had to be a masochist.

Knowing american apparel these partial tights will be double the cost of whole ones. I don’t wanna pay extra for a wedgie!

I just don’t understand what they’re supposed to be used for exactly. They could maybe make more sense if I knew what their purpose was. Until then, they just look uncomfortable and weird.

Actually, those would go perfect with my dress….
J/K, they’re hideous, unless your into S&M;or some weird fetish. I’ve got to say though, at least her ass looks nice. I mean, I hope my ass looks like that, lol.

And control top, too! Keepin the best interests of the ladies in mind, I see.
Also: Is that Sasha Grey? It looks like her.

Maybe in addition to wearing tights, it’s supposed to help shape your ass kinda like the butt bra…2 products in 1?

@becktasm: I wanted to say it looked like Sasha Grey earlier, but I didn’t…thank you for justifying my looking at Sasha Grey in my personal time. Cheers.

These aren’t new. Don’t knock me ladies, but I have a pair of these that are fishnets that I bought a few years ago. I use them for fun

Great for spanking fetishists.
Didn’t know that those were the new demographics for AA though…

There are just so many opportunities for discomfort in these (partly coming from someone with hip problems and an aversion to thongs).
