Product arrived new in box.  Coloring is VERY light.  It would only look nude on a person who was also VERY light - no tan at all.

Product quality is excellent, tummy control was excellent (do not wear undergarments or panty lines will show).  Also, I ordered them for "shorter" people, 4"11 (105lbs) and 5"2 (100 lbs) - both fit just fine with size A.

My mother wore them and loved the comfort.  She is 69 years old and has had several surgeries that make her midsection larger and she said they were comfortable and unbinding - she liked them but can't understand why "nylons" cost so much - haha
