I want to get my first pair of thigh-highs. What do you recommend? (lemmy.zip)

Instead of trying to scour the web for (usually Ai generated) recommendations, I figured I would come where the experts are at :3

I absolutely love compression on my legs, so, while I don't really visit communities like here, I can see there are lots of people here that have the knowledge. If there's a better community to post this to, I can move it there.

I need socks that are suitable for tall and skinny. 5' 10" and about 130lb. I would like ones that teach the upper thigh if that's a thing. I would use them mainly for sleeping or lounging around, so ones that resist slipping would be great. As far as budget, $40 max, but I'd prefer under $30. I'm in the US by the way.

How do you rate their feel? I like stuff that's really soft to the touch but not fuzzy. Like a really good t-shirt kinda fabric.

Not sure how I would feel about socks with ribbing though. As long as it's not a rough texture, I think I would like it.

Do you have recommendations for particular styles or materials from Sock Dreams?
