Too tight and the material is scratchy - the white ones had a run in them but I didn't care cause it wasn't that noticable. They do loosen up after wearing and washing a couple times so they aren't a waste of money, but they are more like halloween quality stockings, and not every day clothes type of stockings which is what I needed. They do go over the knee and they don't roll up or slide down, but they also kind of dig in and do the "muffin top" thing on your leg before you "break them in." After you wash and wear them a few times they look and feel a lot less cheap and I wear them quite often.
