Denier refers to the weight or thickness of the yarn or fiber used to weave pantyhose. From low to high is fine to heavy. For example 10 - 15 denier pantyhose utilize a fine or thin yarn and the pantyhose appear very sheer on the leg. 40 - 60 denier pantyhose have a higher opacity. 65 + denier and the hose are very opaque.
