Miles of
Of "Mann's Own Brand"
CHIFFON
HOSIER
Proved by Actual
WEAR TEST!
For the past several years, the question of
service from chiffon hosiery has been a
much discussed subject among merchants
who are selling hosiery to their customers
everyday, as well ai among the customers
themselves.
How much wear may I expect from this or
that pair of chiffon hose? You hear it every
day, and Mann's decided to do something
about It.
A test was made, an actual wear test, in
both walking miles, with the aid of a
pedometer, and hours of service. These
tests are now completed and Mann's truth
fully say. that with proper care, there are
miles and miles and weeks and weeks ot
wear in chiffon hosiery. But remember,
we are speaking of Mann's own brand,
three thread chiffon hose, made expressly
for us, by Nolde and Horst.
Two pair of these fine stockings, worn
under severe conditions, such as walking to
work and other hasards that enter into the
life of a pair of hose, actually lasted 1013
hours without break. They were laun
dered before wearing and each night after
( day's wear.
Another pair, given the pedometer test,
lasted 97 miles without the slightest flaw.
Such wear, such service, from a SI. 00 three
thread chiffon slocking, is indeed proof of
the quality found in Mann's own brand
hosiery. You, too, may expect the same
results when you buy your hosiery from
Mann's. Ask the girls in the Hosiery De
partment, who made the test, to tell you
more about it. It's an interesting story.
