We have been selling stockings for a long time, and in all those years, we have sent our little hand wrapped purple parcels of glamorous and feminine hosiery to virtually every country in the world.

So, we thought it might be interesting to take a little look at the countries that most frequently buy stockings. The results were incredibly close, and the top ten countries all had similar numbers of customers buying stockings – there was literally very little difference in the scores.

The results are shown below, but the first thing that you will see is that it is never too hot for stockings! Australia and Singapore both feature in the top ten. However, as one customer pointed out (thanks Nicole), it is also never too cold or windy for stockings, with Nordic countries and Canada featuring high in the charts. I guess if you like your stockings, the weather is not going to stop you!

The Results

1. United Kingdom
2. United States
3. Canada
4. Australia
5. Sweden
6. Germany
7. Norway
8. France
9. Ireland
10. Singapore

Not surprisingly, as we are based in the UK, that clinched the top spot, with the USA following very very close behind. A huge following in Canada and Australia mean we also ship to them both every day. Then it is back to Europe – as we primarily provide luxury European stockings, it makes sense for them to be worn by European ladies. Lastly, we head to the other side of the world, for Singapore.

If your country wasn’t in the top ten, perhaps you would like a sneaky look at the remainder of the top twenty countries that buy stockings – here they are: 

Countries 11-20

11. Italy
12. Japan
13. Denmark
14. Hong Kong
15. Netherlands
16. New Zealand
17. Russia
18. Switzerland
19. Finland
20. Belgium

Closely following behind is almost every other country. As you can see, stockings are worn all around the globe, and their appeal is timeless. So, never worry about ordering from Mayfair, even if you are the other side of the world. The British Royal Mail visits us every afternoon, collects your pretty parcel, and promptly delivers it to your door.
