Pop socks aka sheer knee highs - where ?

My existing pop socks/sheer knee highs in brown have slid down my legs - I think I need a big size.. a search online today has got me nowhere - nothing I can see in Snag tights - bought the ones I have maybe in Calzedonia? No shortage of black ones online but like to wear brown and burgundy ones to tone with existing trousers. Very against tights with trousers and ankle socks just don't cut it.

Falke?

Not M&S, I've gone through the toes on 6 pairs in the last 2 weeks.

Asda do nude coloured ones.

Wolford.

Always M&S but they don’t last long. I bet even expensive ones will have a big hole in the big toe after a few wears.

Morrisons. They are really good.

Uniqlo

Thanks everyone, can't see any brown in M and S. Will keep an eye out in Asda, but fear it might be the investment ones ie Falke or Wolford. It's chocolate brown I am after

M&S do some knee highs with a wide fit calf. Rich Quartz is a chocolate brown colour.

I like 50 denier ones, as they last well. Matalan have them not sure about brown though, but I get them from Temu nowadays.
