hosiery

Stockings, socks, and tights collectively, or the business of making and selling them.
Noun

This term functions as a collective noun, encompassing a wide range of legwear from sheer stockings to heavy socks. It carries a professional or commercial tone, often appearing in retail contexts or formal dress codes rather than casual conversation, where specific terms like socks or tights are preferred.

Grammatically, hosiery is an uncountable mass noun. It cannot be pluralized as hosierys, nor can it be used with the indefinite article a. To refer to individual items, speakers must use partitive constructions such as a pair of stockings or items of hosiery.
