    The history between the early 1700s to the 1920s. The role of stockings in both male and female fashions remained relatively low key。

    For several generations, men continued to display their legs in knee breeches worn with silk stockings, often embroidered with the familiar clock motif. 

    Eventually, by 1790, knee breeches, stockings and buckled shoes gave way to pantaloons tucked into high riding boots, which ultimately evolved into modern trousers.

    Meanwhile, men's silk stockings gradually bacame replaced by woollen socks.
    Finally, stockings turned to women's world!

    More stories about this part of time, can be found in this interesting book!
