This day in History: 1940 – Nylon stockings were sold in U.S. stores for the first time. They were such a success that 64 million pairs were sold the first year. This buying frenzy was curtailed when the Allied forces began to buy most of the available nylon to make parachutes and tents during World War II. After the war, nylon stockings became a favorite consumer item.
